Shithouse cunt.

What happened there like? We should rehabilitate Peter's rep. Forgive the dreadful grammar.

Yeah he went totally out of his way for my granddad when he was recovering from illness, too.

What the fuck was Tim Howard doing for Rooney's goal? Ironically that looked like an American TV show's depiction of the game.

He's from my village and I heard he treat Gary Speed like shit. Beyond that I don't know much about him. RIP.

5/7-a-side. You're right, though, it's not very nice of him.

Beardsley's a good bloke in his own way but the stuff that comes out of his mouth is abhorrent, obviously.

I was thinking the exact same thing. To be fair he seems to have been scoring at least 1 a game for the last 6 weeks.

Best player I think I'll ever see in the shirt. Still takes the piss out of lads less than half his age on a regular basis.

Rooney in his prime isn't face to lace Shearer's boots even after that injury at Goodison. Prime Wayne Rooney isn't fit to lace the boots of the Shearer who played under Gullit, Bobby, Souness and Roeder? Obviously not even you are stupid enough to genuinely believe that, so I'll leave it there.

Of course Elliot's terrible, man. He's an absolute liability.

Thing I'm at the stage now where the chance I'm giving him probably isn't going to extend beyond Sunday.

He's certainly not as good as Karelse or Perez. Never saw Caig play.

What would be the point? They'd just put him on full-time letter writing duty.

Quite amazing that you needed to type that, like.

We should look a better defensively with Dummett there.

I won't. He gets paid to defend and lead and he's utterly shit at both. I can only imagine the nonsense he said to Bird.

IMO you need 2 players that can do both. Not just one. Matic did it for awhile but couldn't maintain it. You need 2 proper CM's in this division. I really hate the idea of playing purely defensive midfielders. What you want is two players in there that bring different strengths to the table from an attacking and defensive perspective. Speed and Dyer was perfect.

I just remember folk saying this about Shearer when he was about 29. Great players find a way to reinvent themselves a bit and Rooney's struggling with that but he'll find his way eventually.

He's being played as a workhorse, man. Has been for far too long. In a more static role he'd still get lots of goals and make stuff happen.

I'd love to know how Harry Kane's better than Rooney, like. Rooney's out of form, obviously.

Horrible man. So glad Rooney took his record.

Are you OK, Palnese? Your tone's been pretty bleak lately. I'm undecided on the question.

Not sure I'd go along with that but it's perfectly understandable. The club's got cancer and seeing as much of it burn down as possible is preferable to seeing this nonsense go on season after season. Battling relegation, hiring stooges at every level, (generally shit) first team players bought as assets for short and medium-term profit and squad players barely fit for League One. Awful stuff.

Ha. I'd barely put that past this lot.
