Manchester United ace Wayne Rooney returned to Everton yesterday.

And the Blues didn't disappoint, defeating Blackpool in the FA Cup.

The Sunday Express says Rooney watched on as Everton halted Championship high flyers Blackpool in their tracks to leave two-year-old son Kai dreaming of Wembley.

Toddler Kai is already a fully committed Blue, complete with replica kit. His dad is a lapsed member after departing these parts for fame and fortune at Manchester United.

It was Wayne's first time back at Goodison Park as a spectator and with a free weekend due to United's demise in the FA Cup, inflicted just a few weeks ago across Stanley Park by Liverpool, he was back on Merseyside catching up on the gossip with former team-mates like Alan Stubbs.
