Rooney back to Everton

WHY?

Why would they take back the guy who pood on them 13 years ago by going so late in the transfer window that they couldn't replace him?

I'm sure many Everton fans will feel as you do but the club obviously feel that a player of Rooney's skill and experience will benefit their current team and are pragmatic enough not to hold a grudge over something that happened such a long time ago.

Evertonians have no grudge against Rooney, he has always stayed a supporter, and have been back and watched several games over the years, now if you want someone Evertonians will always despise your man is Jamie Carragher.

I remember it as Man U coming in late, just before the season starting and Rooney not knowing if he would get a second chance at going to a club where he won EVERYTHING unlike Alan Shearer. Was given an opportunity and he took it.

Things looking good for Everton at the moment, Rooney is still capable of being a high level Premiership player.

Everton to take Spurs place in the top four next season? :think:

I very much doubt that the timing of the move was down to the player.

You would be right to doubt it. Rooney submitted a transfer request quite early in the summer and Everton rejected several bids for him before finally accepting United's offer.

There's your answer. It's ancient history isn't it?

And Man Utd had to pay Everton what was at that time a huge transfer fee.

Good piece of business by Everton IMO , plenty of goals left in Rooney .
