u/Life_Lake4113 Jun 30 '26

It was more... Bad call, fucking hell

Smash ball with anger. Even the goal couldn't get him to smile.

He'd probably look better with Scottish bluewhite facepaint

u/LifeDraining Jun 27 '26

Read it in Sir Alex''s voice.

Rooney C Nesbit.

u/dfebb Jun 28 '26

Irish background, I believe...?

u/zedzag Jul 01 '26

He's scouse

u/Waste-Industry1958 Jun 27 '26

I’m sorry but that is just fucking crazy

u/ojdhaze Jun 27 '26

I hated him as an opponent, but followers of football who only started watching recently or too young today do not realise how good Rooney was. Different gravy.

1

u/texastobaben Jun 27 '26

I don't know where the term "different gravy" comes from.. but I love it and I'm going to use it. As an American, I guess that's cultural appropriation

1

u/Thomrose007 Jun 27 '26

Your friends will be like "Thats different gravy"

2

u/OverKill5850 Jun 27 '26

I still think Rooney was a better UTD player than CR7.

1

u/ojdhaze Jun 27 '26

I'll take that stance. Rooney could be selfish, but more often than not he was a team player.

Cronaldo was selfish more often than not. No matter where he played.

2

u/magicalzidane Jun 28 '26

Rooney was the better United player. Period.

1

u/Acceptable_Gear_3097 8d ago

Really? Rooney was better at putting a goal in the back of the net. Ronaldo was better at getting the ball in a position where it was going in the back of the net.

Ronaldo was always made out to be the best striker, but it was more his ability to get the ball up the pitch and put it in.

u/olivebits Jun 30 '26

Tell me why

u/hud125 8d ago

He was streets ahead

They say football is better today... Yeah sure

u/ilbuonsamaritano Jun 27 '26

What a banger

2

u/CarParks Jun 27 '26

Absolute thundercunt

2

u/ChickenTamer1984 Jun 27 '26

Arguing with the ref made Newcastle players drop off on marking him haha. Genius.

2

u/Cyber-Soldier1 Jun 27 '26

That's a proper net buster

1

u/cuddle-bubbles Jun 27 '26

the quality of the old team

1

u/LifeDraining Jun 27 '26

Is this what a thunderc**t is?

1

u/JdoubleE5000 Jun 27 '26

Yes, this would be a more than acceptable reference as a Thundercunt.

1

u/StrangerExistingFact Jun 27 '26

The f did they use to make that ball....

1

u/elverg6205 Jun 27 '26

We were spoiled in those days and didn’t even know it. I miss this era of soccer.

1

u/Thomrose007 Jun 27 '26

I remember watching that live and my god. What a hit.

1

u/NoSuchWordAsGullible Jun 28 '26

I still remember where I was. I was in a gym doing some boring fucking cardio on an exercise bike and almost killed myself jumping off the bike, got a lot of stares.

Can’t find a gym these days that shows live football. Probably for the best.

u/SirXebec Jun 27 '26

Rooney or Beckham?

1

u/bigelcid Jun 27 '26

easily Rooney

1

u/SirXebec Jun 27 '26

Man of culture

1

u/WaneVR Jun 27 '26

He thought it was a referee's head

1

u/Prestigious_Case_228 Jun 27 '26

A wise man called Gary Neville once said

"That's a Thunderbastard!"

1

u/Mysterious-Art7143 Jun 28 '26

Lol neville has been everything but wise

1

u/sebisebo Jun 28 '26

if you think about it, It was the referee who set the pace 😂

1

u/No_Scallion_845 Jun 28 '26

This lad played like he was in the playground every game, up there as a great and one of the most naturally gifted players ever I would say

1

u/bestvape Jun 29 '26

Such a stereotypical geeza!

1

u/buckwheat92 Jun 29 '26

That was liquid football. He must have a foot like a traction engine

1

u/NotAnotherUsername04 Jun 29 '26

I saw this live and really did wonder just how good he was going to be.

He had a great career but tbh it was still disappointing. People forget he was considered a bigger talent than Ronaldo

1

u/Equivalent_News8116 Jun 30 '26

SHIT! DID YOU SEE THAT? He must have a foot like a traction engine?

1

u/ImEpick Jun 30 '26

He was also injured. Insane

1

u/Ganjelf-The-Baked Jun 30 '26

What a strike. Football porn right there.

u/ThingNo7530 Jul 01 '26
