I would love that but the fact is we will never see that Rooney again! we haven't seen that Rooney for some time! same as we hadn't seen that clinical Torres who made the game look so easy for some time before we signed him.

Player A - 34 Apps, 9 Goals, 11 Assists

Player B - 27 Apps, 12 Goals, 10 Assists

Player C - 29 Apps, 12 Goals, 11 Assists

Which player do you want up front?

[Pacquiao 1,834]

why not? he still has 12 league goals and 10 assists from 26 league games played out of position and the last season he played upfront he got 34 in 44

yeah and virtually all his goals this season have been against pub teams! he had one good game against City and scored a lucky free-kick against us, apart from that...

[Special Juan 28,141]

I don't think he will play for United again.

Ya think lol !!!!!

i don't know why peoples arguments for Rooney is to show me his stats from last season! how about Torres stats the season before we signed him (22 goals in 32 games) or Shevchenko's (28 goals in 40 games) how did they work out?

if you watched him play recently you would know he is in decline any United fan will tell you that, anyone who has actually watched him lately will tell you that! but yeah he scored goals last season so it only makes sense that next season the declining Wayne Rooney will score even more right??? :banghead:

None of those stats are from last season. Just tell me, which player you would like up front for Chelsea? It's a bit of fun.

United fans I know say that he hasn't been in decline, but he's been used in a very different way. Van Persie has been the main striker, but Rooney has been keeping Kagawa out of the team in that number 10 role. There seems to be this myth that he's become a worse player or that he's somehow in decline and that simply isn't backed up by much. He's had fitness and injury issues but I don't think they're insurmountable.

So just for fun, A, B or C?

The people denying Rooney is in decline are lying to themselves!!!

I dont think there is a big difference between A,B and C, but If I'm correct, both Hazard and Mata have similar stats, not sure if thats a good way to compare players.

Podolski: 9 goals and 9 assists.

None of those stats are from last season. Two are from this season, one is from a little earlier. Which one takes your fancy?

And Falcao is an interesting choice when you think about how he'd fit into our team, his price tag, his effect on the performance of his Atletico teammates and things of that nature. Lewandowski is a great shout and Cavani may be a good fit too, although he's expensive.

But Falcao does have those swarthy Latin good looks, something I know has been raised as a negative about Rooney before. I suppose Radamel would look good with the Chelsea shirt on, and off.....if you know what I mean. :eyebrows:

Falcao would be a beast for us and would have no problem fitting our style! i think that's Bs when people say he wont fit the way we play! especially with Jose coming in! he likes Counter attack football and that suits Falcao nicely!

i think your getting confused as am i!

I am still baffled as to why you said to me none of those stats are from last season? the stats i mentioned in my post were from Torres and Sheva's last full season before signing for Chelsea i am not sure what you are talking about tbh!

The stats of the 'mystery players' are three players not named Shevchenko or Torres.

Apparently he isn't even on the pitch for Ferguson's farewell speech.

If lewandowski is available then we should not even look at rooney,Just fucking get lewandowski in!

I think we should look at him, mainly because Rooney is a better player (on his day) than Lewandowski. Lewandowski is a great goalscorer, but Rooney has that x-factor that very few players have.

Motivated, fit and hungry Rooney every time.

A motivated,fit and hungry rooney is world class but the problem is he is not the same anymore.Yes there is a chance that he may well recapture all that but it would be a huge risk which i am not willing to take at the moment.Lewandowski has been brilliant for a fair while now and the quoted price for both of them is 25m and for that give lewandowski over the current rooney anyday.If we sign rooney then it could go either way he may turn us into genuine title contenders and he may well become another torres/shevchenko.
