You seem to be crying about people commenting how dreadful that skit was. That's being a tad delicate.
Ok buddy:thumbsu:

I didnt think I was the one getting offended by it but carry on. I thought it was cool and not worth the salt. You were embarrassed and having cold shivers. Harden up mate, I didn't think your generation got so easily offended like us snowflakes.

PM me if want to carry on this discussion as it's time to get back on track.

Rooney to Everton feels a bit like Torres back to Atletico. Written off but has still had a positive contribution.
This, :handok:.

I just don't think people can realise it. We also signed Eto'o on a similar deal, he decided to piss off after six months but he was able to make a real impact in the time he was here.

Rooney isn't the player he once was, we all know that so I don't know why it constantly needs to be said. I still firmly believe he can make an impact, his experience, leadership and ability to step up at big moments may not make a highlight package look any better but are all such valuable assets in his game, which shouldn't be overlooked.

Whilst Everton supporters may have goals of being on par with the top six and spending just as much/more money as them, we still just don't have the pulling power to bring in the real big names. We're not going to win the league with the signings we're makin. Or sig the same level of players as the six teams above us are trying to. We need to create a platform to become a Champions League side and then use that to enhance the reptation of the club so all of us stars want to say and the club can compete in transfers of those big names with everyone else in the squad. It takes a lot of progression but I feel we're taking all the right steps foward. I've never been more excited to support Everton.

Lol the trick all us fella's can relate when your woman says her peice and abruptly walks out slamming the door - aka "take it to PM's". Anyway no need, I've said all I have to say.

And no, Lukaku isn't worth £75m by any stretch

I'm obviously one of few but I didn't mind the Chelsea video - found it far better than that Villa one.

Oh and I think Everton are stupid for getting Rooney back but I do love that 'Once a blue...' video.

Glad we didn't get him:'(
All that shows is he isn't all that far off the pace and besides Harry Kane who I think is the best striker in the world is a good few years younger than the others, also was playing in a side not as good as the others.

That Chelsea video made me cringe. What happened to a good old club statement to the media posted on their website - (club) is pleased/excited to announce the signing of (player x) on an (x) year contract. (insert player bio) (insert player holding shirt and signing fake contract).

I'm also really surprised how athletic Kane is. Maybe because he's such a tall/lanky lad he appears to be moving slower than he actually is.

Rooney isn't going to be as bad or as good as people think. How's it different to United signing Ibra last season? With a youngish side at Everton I think Rooney will be a good influence on the dressing room.

Now Chelsea, sign a damn striker or two!
