Some things never change, and one of those certainties in life is Wayne Rooney's accuracy when it comes to face Manchester City.
The English striker, who dominated the Citizens while at Manchester United, added one more milestone to his career as he scored his 12th goal against Guardiola's team on Monday's clash. If things needed to be even sweeter for Everton's No. 10, this goal saw Rooney join the 200-goal club, which had only one "tenant" prior to today's game: Alan Shearer.
