Are the officials blind, that should go O'Shea.


Rooney scores! Good pen!
1 goal in 8 EPL games

kai, Rooney don score... oya cue elampiro

elampiro:


anti-rooney thread shud do the fasting

may be due to d injuries. I can fast cos even Rooney has been playing with a huge injury on his toe since new year . yet haters said he dived. we no o w knew why he has been passing instead of shooting

You noticed it during the tryst you guys had on Val's day abi?

We are a goal up now, sunderland a man down, let's see if these guys would take the initiative to kill off the game.

We are OT.

Good penalty by Rooney. Well struck into a tight corner. However what kind of referee is this?Showing a red card to Wes Brown instead of John O'Shea!

What is the use of bringing on Fellaini for Falcao when we are playing against 10 men?

Coogar

Rooney!

Game won!

I'm just smh since... this is beyond me

And someone will say Jones is better than Smalling!


So we spent 60mill for a player Januzaj can bench

Rooney!

Game won!

We should have killed this game long bfr now!

Rooney will make some people sad today

That Falcao's first touch

S'ton falling down.

2nd straight loss

that was great.. could have bn more tho

I wonder if nihilist and airbornelacer still think the decision to declare soton title challengers is a wise one

Taking off Falcao after finally getting something right was just wrong...!

I think a bit of bench time will do Di Maria some good. He lacks discipline in his decision making and actions, playing like there is nothing at stake, making fancy and dangerous passes in his own half and generally being careless with the ball.

They are still within 'touching' distance; considering how inconsistent we equally are, it is far from uhuru yet!

Against 10 men LVG should have kept Falcao and Rooney on together for some more time and piled on the pressure, the man has grown timid in his dotage

abeg, where we dey for table

11 - Wayne Rooney is the first player in Premier
League history to score 10+ goals in 11 consecutive
seasons. Decadence?

following the PK+red card, the Fellaini sub made no sense. if it was determined already, Mata could have come on.

Januzaj did great, probably has a good shout for MOTM behind Rooney.
Young also had an impressive first 45mins.
special mentions for Smalling, Herrera, Blind & Valencia.

overall the team gave a good account of themselves, our conversion rate need boost tho.

Di Maria should sit out Newcastle on Wednesday, he is not offering anything as of yet ...We just needed to win today ,as for playing better ,I will leave dat to next season

I don't think subbing Falcao for Fella is a wrong decision. Falcao offered nothing in this match except the penalty, he kept falling down (easily at that o imagine) whenever he gets the fall. Fellaini offered stability in the opponent's half, he doesn't get dispossessed immediately he gets the ball and his holdups could've lead to more goals. Heck, he should've gotten a goal himself in the match.

Falcao is very unfit and unsteady and he's been used consistently of late.

I'm not saying fella should always start, I just prefer he replaces Falcao when things aren't going well.

Jorgen Klopp's team won again today. Now on 10th position. They're 8 points off qualification for UCL. Na wa o

ayagayagayos won't see this according to my man mister elampiro

My brother, it was lovely, that would have been the cleanest Goal of the weekend, it's shameful Rooney had to take the glory.

Maybe Ancellotti was right afterall when he said he wastes ball possession easily.

Dude shoots and crosses recklessly

Where are the anti Rooney people, I am yet to see them discuss how useless Wazza is, rooney on the way to becoming the second highest Epl scorer of all time

Today's game just shows we should go back to using width.
