Wayne Rooney

My name is Brandon Arkins and I’m writing about Wayne Rooney and Manchester United. Wayne Rooney was born in Liverpool in 1986. When he was growing up as a kid he joined Everton’s academy. He was doing very well and he got his debut at the age of 16. He scored in his debut against Arsenal and it was from 25 yards out, it went straight into the top corner.
Two years later Manchester United signed him. In his first year at United he scored something like 18 goals in his first season. His second season at United he might have scored the nicest goal ever. He was talking to the referee outside the box and had just turned around and seen the ball coming for him. He just smacked it on the volley and it went straight into the top corner. Manchester United won the Premier League that year and the next. In his fourth year at United he was voted the best player in the world. The next year United won the Premier League and Rooney scored 23 goals in the league. The season after that United won the double and bet Chelsea in the final of the Champions League on penalties in Moscow in 2008. In 2009 United were beaten by Barcelona in the final of the Champions League and Ronaldo left for Real Madrid but the good bit is that United won the Premier League. The season after that wasn’t great because United only won the Carling Cup. At the end of that season Rooney wanted to leave United because of personal problems but he didn’t, he stayed on at the greatest club ever- Manchester United!

  1. I mean he's alright . . . he might just make the Larriers first eleven, but certainly not at Liverpool! Well written Brandon! Mr. O' Leary
