Wayne Rooney gives Alex Ferguson more worry over things said in Tweet of the moment

24 April 2011 10:17
Wayne Rooney joined the social networking revolution on Saturday to give Sir Alex Ferguson another headache. [LNB]Rooney communicated via Twitter for the first time to offer team-mate Rio Ferdinand a lift, adopting the moniker Wazzaroon08 in tribute to Manchester United's Champions League triumph against Chelsea in Moscow in 2008. [LNB] Online: Wayne Rooney (left) is now a social networker[LNB]THE WISDOM OF WAYNE:Wazzaroon08[LNB]Hi all this is Wayne Rooney just started so bare [sic] with me. Hope all is well. I'llget rio to approve it's me guys. Xoxo[LNB]--------------------------------------------------------Great result for us today. Love playing with Hernandez. Buy of century.

And don't forget league title.[LNB]--------------------------------------------------------Follow my wife @coleenRoo[LNB]--------------------------------------------------------Thanks to everyone following me. Boythat was quick[LNB]--------------------------------------------------------Happy for Torres. Great striker[LNB]News of Rooney's late entry into the online community spread like wildfire and his following was approaching 100,000 in a matter of hours, meaning any ill-judged comments will also be quickly pounced on. [LNB]His record of on-pitch misbehaviour means United manager Ferguson is bound to be worried about him publishing comments that land him in trouble. [LNB]West Ham's Carlton Cole recently fell into the Twitter trap with a 'joke' about immigration that earned him a ?20,000 fine from the FA. In January, Ryan Babel received a ?10,000 fine for posting a mocked-up picture of referee Howard Webb wearing a Manchester United shirt, after he had played in Liverpool's 1-0 defeat at Old Trafford. [LNB]Ferguson could rest easy last night though as Rooney, not officially verified but endorsed by Ferdinand, kept his tweets clean - and the only mistakes came in his spelling. [LNB]But fellow United star Dimitar Berbatov might be interested in the apparent favouring of Javier Hernandez as Rooney's strike partner. [LNB]After the Mexican scored the winner against Everton, Rooney tweeted: 'Love playing with Hernandez. Buy of century.'[LNB] Man Utd 1 Everton 0: Javier it!
