Everton: Fans slam Wayne Rooney post as he retires and goes into management

Share

Some Everton fans have slammed a post from the Merseyside club showing their appreciation to Wayne Rooney as he became the permanent Derby boss.

The Goodison Park faithful sent their congratulations to the 35 year-old on their official Twitter page by posting a video compilation of his 10 best goals with the caption: ‘Once a Blue, twice a Blue, always a Blue…’

The caption itself did not go down very well at all with some Toffees as the Englishman left them to join Manchester United as a teenager and ended up winning multiple accolades during his time at Old Trafford, including no fewer than five Premier League titles and one UEFA Champions League trophy to his name (Transfermarkt), therefore leaving much of his footballing legacy with the Red Devils instead.
