I hate the scum with a passion but don't agree with you about Rooney. No point being a blind blue.
Even though the quotes attributed to the OP are actually those from Stretford, I have to pick you up on the fat scouser.
I'll admit all day long when I see a good player and fatty is certainly up there. However, he is certainly not as good as the English media would have you believe.
I watched the Stretford/Leeds game today....fatty curled one in from twenty yards against a third division goalkeeper, which went 5 yeards wide. The commentator: 'Only he can do that'.....Eh? What? Miss? Welbeck, one of the famous 'Kids', then proceeded to do exactly the same thing only 10 minutes later. So clearly not.
It's the same on MOTD, week in week out. Some of his shot's nearly hit the moon but, because fatty is English, he get's points for supposedly trying something no-one else would!? I think he somehow managed to hit the bar from six yards against Villa. The commetator: 'Look at the touch'....well yeah, it was good, but he f*cking missed! So what's the point in the touch if yer gonna miss? Bergkamp/Drogba/Torres/Henry, anyone?
I've got to say that I'm absolutely sick to death of the English media crawling up fatties backside at every available opportunity. If we were sat in a pub in Buenos aires they would take Tevez above gooney all day long.
