Cornish Steve Posted January 21, 2022 Report Share Posted January 21, 2022 But there are reports that Rooney would not get the respect he needs from some of the players, and I can understand that. Just a couple of years ago, he was one of the players. This has to be a concern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a terrible conflict of interest. Betting companies should be nowhere near the workings and financials of the league - and, in my opinion, should be prohibited from any form of sponsorship.

MC11 Posted January 21, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2022 Ffs get Rooney back. Bring a scouser home. Rooney and Dunc together UTFT “When you here the coppers shout… ey put the candles out!!! We are the Goodison Gang!!!! We have no manners, We bless our tanners, we are respected wherever we will go!!! Walking down the Goodison Road, All the windows open Wide!!!

FairWooney Posted January 21, 2022 Report Share Posted January 21, 2022 Interesting that in the press conference Dunc really doesn't put himself forward for the permanent job siting the fact that he doesn't have much experience. He also says it's his dream to manage Everton one day. If he believes both of those things then surely it's within his gift to get himself a managerial role somewhere and get a bit of experience so that he can come back. I like his smile at the words on playing against Stevie G. He's well up for that fight! Romey 1878, Matt, MikeO and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly what he needs to do. Go out and smash it somewhere and make it impossible for the club to ignore him and for fans such as myself to not want it to happen.

In a ladder climbing sense yes. But he seems like the opposite of the person he was before, which is why I've come to respect him and would be happy with him having a chat. Just because he's calmed doesn't mean he wouldn't go all blood and thunder if he needed (which he seems to admitted to in his interview). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much happier with that, if he was still as aggro as he was in his playing days I wouldn’t even want him as interim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not like they advertise on at the job centre and you can fill in an application form In seriousness, if he was to contact Everton about the post he would likely be in breach of his contract with Derby. The state they are in they would probably sue him for it to help the finances. Matt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC11 Posted January 22, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2022 The squad is absolutely terrible. Absolutely no change today from when we were under Benitez.

Absolutely no quality in that midfield Thought Allan was pretty effective after coming on, Gomes looked positive until he picked up his yellow, and Doucoure has talent he's just fallen off a bit as of late. To say there's absolutely no quality is pretty ludicrous. There's just no depth. Hoping Onyango can continue to show quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
