Wayne’s Crazy World!

Why is it that when we get a home-grown football superstar, in many cases it all ends in tears?

It’s not just the Paul Gascoignes and George Bests of this world, but every decade has had its fair share of footballers with drink, drugs, gambling, marriage or other personal problems. But there are many others, whose indeiscretions and problems are just those that effect us all. I remember talking to one ex-footballer, who said that he’d kept his nose clean, saved a lot of his money wisely and been able to get a good life after he retired.  He felt that life had been good to him.

So why when Wayne has it all  at his feet, does he throw a big wobbly at Manchester United.  If I were Sir Alex, I’d seriously give  consideration to letting him go to another club.  But then, that club might just be Manchester City, who let’s face it could afford any player, who thought money was more important than playing football.

But Rooney has often struck me as a bit of an idiot. I seem to remember that he recently took up smoking.  If that is true, my case is proven!

So perhaps, Sir Alex should sell Wayne Rooney to Manchester City and let them have all the problems! Unfortunately, there is a sell-on clause in Rooney’s contract, that would mean that Everton would get quite a bit of any transfer fee!
