These Side By Side Photos Of Rooney Scoring Against Man City Four Years Apart Are Brilliant [Images]

Wayne Rooney became only the second ever man to score 200 Premier League goals last night, but there was something else that was pretty remarkable about it.

Wayne Rooney banged in his 200th Premier League goal last night against old foes Manchester City, although this time he was wearing the colours of boyhood club Everton.

He will still have loved the fact that Everton has put an early dent in the title hopes of Pep Guardiola and his team of superstars, and it was another slick finish that did the trick.

In case you missed it, here’s a clip of the goal:

Now the goal itself isn’t all that remarkable, but how about the sleuthing work done by @kamikazemufc?

Rooney for Man United four years ago:

And Rooney for Everton last night:

Same fans, still hating on Wayne – classic.

But it gets better, because look who hasn’t changed one bit – from four years ago:

And from last night:

Same crooked finger and all.

I guess it’s proof that City do have fans who have been supporting the team for longer than a few years.

Relax, everyone, I support Newcastle United so I have no horse in this fight. At least I can rest easy knowing that Rooney will never catch the one and only Alan Shearer…
