Wayne Rooney
We had Totti and Buffon.
The Telegraph reporting that Wayne Rooney is in talks with Derby to become a player coach
" Waaaayne is baaaack" Sky cry
"World class icon regained his form in the MLS".
41games 23 goals 12 assists isnt bad going Wayne, maybe you have found your, oh wait.
45 games 38 goals 10 assists, thats a geriatric Zlatan
Our own Jack Harrison managed 14 goals and 10 assists in the MLS in 50 odd games.
But seriously, it would be a good move for Derby if they can pull it off from a commercial stand point.
Footballing? Not so sure, Rooney has looked past it for a long time and when a nearly 40 year old Ibrahimovic is still out performing you then questions will be asked.

Re: Wayne Rooney's Derby County
What the gell are they going to sell to afford £100k a week?
Re: Wayne Rooney's Derby County
I'm sure Mel Morris will buy a pen in the club shop for £60m.YorkshireSquare wrote: ↑Mon Aug 05, 2019 7:15 pm What the gell are they going to sell to afford £100k a week?
Re: Wayne Rooney's Derby County
I can see why black managers get aggrieved at things like this. Rooney doesn't exactly strike me as being intelligent enough to be a manager/coach, yet he's still offered a high level for a first job, yet Sol Campbell has to start at Macclesfield.

Whatever next !
Re: Wayne Rooney's Derby County
Another publicity stunt, surely.
Rooney's been cack for at least a decade, and has the charisma of frog spawn.

The irony that the EFL proposed a version of the NFL's 'Rooney Rule' to get more BAME coaches into top level positions is beautiful.
Re: Wayne Rooney's Derby County
Joining Derby on an 18th month deal in January.
Got to hand it to Mel Morris, he certainly treats FFP as the joke it is
The same number as the Sponsor 32Red, says it all really.

Re: Wayne Rooney's Derby County
Yeah wonder if Derby interviewed anyone else for the role. As Sara put it it is just a publicity stunt to try to raise the profile of a non-descript club, same as with appointing Lampard last season.

Re: Wayne Rooney's Derby County
The 'coach' thing is so his wages can be split 50/50 so that only half of his wages count towards FFP. Derby cheating the system yet again.

Re: Wayne Rooney's Derby County
Derby continuing to make themselves "sky friendly" with the recruitment of a popular player. Like they did when they brought in Frankie. It has brought them all the positive headlines and it will make it easier for them to recruit players both before Thursday if needed and in Jan.
Good move on their part from a business sense as they will probably shift a load of extra shirts.

Re: Wayne Rooney's Derby County
Have they got him working in the warehouse too? Probably be 99% of his wages for warehouse wayne
Re: Wayne Rooney's Derby County
I can't see Cocu being too pleased about this. He seemed quite pissed off about it yesterday when they asked him.
I'll laugh if they're top when Rooney arrives and he ends up fcking everything up for them.
