Bale getting a huge boner from destroying Maicon is a very funny football memory, RIP to the king of golf.

Bale retired today. Here are some sick goals. I can still remember how he skinned Bartra (1:35). It’s missing the game where he destroys Maicon but I can’t recall if he scored then.

https://youtu.be/sodxDn1PPDo

He murdered Maicon twice over two group stage CL games in 2010 - the first where Tottenham Tottenhamed their way into being 4-0 and a man down at half time then he went and scored a hattrick to nearly drag them back into contention, then in the reverse fixture he played a blinder and they won 3-1

Maybe that's why he signed for LA - wasn't to prep for the World Cup but instead to just prep to golf his rear end off all over the western US for the rest of his life.

Uh excuse me, second to last in the Championship.

But, like, how is he competent, when his record isn't exactly what one would call "stellar." Derby were lucky to avoid relegation in his first season with them in 20/21, and he got them bumped down in 21/22.

DC United is really bad OP and were even worse before Rooney got on board (we're talking losing every game by 3-7 goals)

Also you are ignoring that the Derby County had 21 points deducted from them because they engaged in comedy finances that didn't really have anything to do with Rooney. Like Derby County would have been mid table if not for that.

yeah, Rooney's managerial career so far seems to be mostly as the captain of various doomed boats, the Derby fans still love him for a) getting anything at all out of a squad that might as well have been signed by harassing people outside of Tesco, and b) appearing out of nowhere to shout at Mel Morris every day until his players got paid

but my main justification here is that he isn't Gerrard or Lampard, who are bad managers, ipso facto qed

I just think it's funny that he's managing DC United after supposedly Colleen spent Wayne's entire time as a player with DC United bitching that went to the US and didn't sign with a team in Los Angeles or New York.

These compilations always miss how many obscene passes laudrup made. I saw one years ago where he did a rainbow flick over the defense directly onto the strikers boot for an assist I've never been able to find again
