Summary

#232. Was it Wayne Rooney's worst ever performance for United? Certainly there have been few quite so insipid as the Scouser's at Aston Villa on Friday night.

United's clean sheet secured another three points. Ed & Paul also discuss the transfer market, the ongoing David de Gea saga, United's return to European competition against Club Brugge, and the upcoming game against Newcastle.No Question About That is available on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, YouTube, Amazon Music and all good podcast apps.

The So, So Wayne really was quite bad against that's the middle of them.

0:29.6

Wow he wasn't the only one. I'm just going to get the caveat in straight away. He wasn't the only one who's stunk against Villa. He just stunk the worst.

0:39.0

And I, I'd hazard to say, I mean I may be exaggerating and of course it's freshest in my memory

0:46.1

But that might just be his worth performance in a Manchester United yet. Yeah, we have a running gag on this show which is that me and you have a go at Rooney all the time,

0:54.5

not actually based on any kind of hatred or anything. It's just become a thing.

1:00.3

But that game was like a parody of the version of Wayne Rooney that we actually talk about you know

1:05.6

He was really really really bad I would assume that will also be his worst performance of the season too.

1:12.6

I would think so.

1:13.6

Rooney traditionally takes a long time to get into the season, doesn't he?

1:17.1

I actually have no data to back that up, but I'd hazard that his performances early

1:21.0

in the season for the last few years have not been great

1:23.4

and at all after injury you know just seems to take a long time to get fit it

gone on Luke sure and Adnan Janazai's Dubai training camp or something

1:34.8

like that but it does seem to take a long time so this is his sixth game for in

1:39.8

preseason two Premier League games and maybe he's just not quite fit. In fact, it's obvious he wasn't fit because he was blowing so hard by the end and walking around and that wasn't the case with the rest of the team and aside from that it was just completely ineffective, kept

1:54.9

dropping back into midfield when he didn't need to loss the ball quite a lot of times.

1:59.1

Lost the ball eight times and then Lou Van Hal came out and blamed Adyannezai for losing the wall.

2:06.0

Interesting.

2:07.0

Yeah, a bit upsetting that.

2:08.0

A bit upsetting, really, because actually I thought, Janzai, he didn't do brilliantly. But you you said I want to go back to something you said
