More controversy has followed Manchester United star Wayne Rooney after he took umbrage to sky commentator Martin Tyler and pundit Graeme Souness


Wayne Rooney has hit out at Sky commentator Martin Tyler on Twitter after Cardiff City's dramatic draw with Manchester United.

The England striker found the net with a deflected shot on 15 minutes but was lucky not to have been sent off eight minutes earlier for kicking Jordan Mutch on the back of the leg.

Having watched the game back, Rooney said he accepted that his tackle was bad but was aggrieved that veteran mic man Tyler kept referring to it.


He also highlighted a later incident in the match involving midfield rivals Gary Medel and Marouane Fellaini.

The Red Devils star, 28, who scored the opener at the Cardiff City Stadium tweeted: "Just watched game back.

"I agree mine was bad tackle and ref dealt with it.

"And Martin Tyler didn't shut up about it all game.



"Then someone slaps someone in face and he doesn't speak a word about it.

"I like Martin but that's poor from him."


The former Everton man was equally furious with Sky Sports pundit and ex Liverpool legend Graeme Souness, referring to him as 'Sourness,' who refused to criticise Gary Medel for an apparent slap in the face to his team mate Marouane Fellaini.


Medel, who marked Rooney for Chile against England last week, was spoken to but not cautioned for the incident moments before the Bluebirds' late equaliser.

Earlier in the match, Fraizer Campbell had cancelled out Rooney's opener ib33 minutes before Patrice Evra restored United's lead just before the interval.

But then Kim Bo-Kyung headed home in the 90th minute to earn a share of the spoils for the Bluebirds.

Typical manure response.forgot to mention the elbow into medels head that led to the"slap"should never have been on the pitch! And certainly would not have been interviewed if the ref didn't bottle it.

Rooney was disappointed to find out that 'Help The Aged' was a charity and not a specialist brothel.

It wasn't a tackle it was a blatant kick after the ball had gone.

Fair play he's got some nerve the fat little fucker
