Form Everton, where he made his professional debut 16 years in 2002, and having spent 13 seasons in Manchester United, Wayne Rooney is not really part of the category of people who carry Liverpool FC in their hearts.
The 34-year-old English striker, who currently plays for Derby County (2nd English division), said the Reds deserved to be crowned English champions this season. The Premier League, and all championships in the country, are currently on hold due to the coronavirus health crisis.
Liverpool will win the Premier League, Rooney wrote in a column for the Sunday Times. As you can imagine, Everton fans call me and tell me to cancel the championship! And of course, as a former member of Everton and Manchester United, a small part of me thinks that would be a good thing …
A title expected since 1990
25 points ahead of Manchester City in the standings, Liverpool, which has not won the championship since 1990, is living a breathtaking 2019/2020 season, and Rooney is fully aware of this. They were fantastic, conceded the Derby forward. They worked so hard. They deserve this title. Imagine: wait 30 years and have the trophe removed like a? A good decision must be made.
For Rooney, this season must come to an end, regardless of whether it impinges on the next. It would also be fair to promotions and relegations. These are big problems and I think there would be legal battles if the season were just canceled.
