UnitedNorge – En Manchester United-blogg

Rooney er tilbedt blandt United-fansen. En annen gudommelig figur, Jesus, har en tendens til å dukke opp som et deformert potetgullflak eller lignende. Joiner Rich Rigby falt av motorsykkelen sin, og Wayne Rooney på kneet.

“I was having a drink with friends and when I showed them my knee we realised it looked like Rooney, so our lass took a photo. Everyone was laughing about it. It beggared belief – he is a legend and I never thought he would appear on my knee. All his facial features were there, you could see his small ears, nose and he even had a beard like the real Rooney.”

Rigby, som er United-fan, håper det er et tegn på en 19. ligatittel og fjerde på rad, i tillegg til at en godt VM for England.

“I hoped it might make me play better too but it hasn’t. I don’t play competitively, but I do like to have a kick around with the kids. I don’t mind an injury to my knee, as long as Rooney doesn’t get injured we should be okay.”
