Barbara 15,149 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Although I liked Alex's post about wanting this to go until the end of August so we can make ManUtd look like fools (more than they already look by now), there's the down side to this prolonging: those transfer sagas get tiring after a while.I stopped checking the Cavani thread for 2 weeks before he was confirmed on PSG... there are so many fabricated stories and rumors... it's tiring. So yeah a part of me wants this to go on until the very last minute, the other part of me will avoid this thread until then so I don't read the stupid rumors coming next we'll give Hazard + 20m for Rooney José is schooling ManUtd though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jype 6,398 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Every time when United won title, there were other players more important than Rooney. Ronaldo, Berbatov and recently Rvp. When Rooney scored shit load of goals, last and 2009/10 season, united wasnt champion. He still had impact in game though, but wasnt the very main key.Food for thought.Comparing Rooney to Van Persie is harsh. Back in 2011/12 when Van Persie was still at Arsenal they were both equally good and they really wouldn't even have needed RvP last season because getting him had a negative effect on Rooney's game when he couldn't play as a striker anymore. Had they decided against buying Van Persie and stuck with Rooney as their main striker, I'd say they would still have won the title comfortably and it would have been Rooney scoring almost 25 league goals instead of Van Persie. Maybe Ferguson wanted something new in Van Persie just because he knew it was going to be his last season or maybe he knew about Rooney's plans to leave the club so he opted to buy another world class striker beforehand to make sure the club will still be in a good position once Rooney's gone. A lot of maybes there but one thing's for sure. Rooney is still one of the best strikers in the world and back in 2011/12 when he still got to play in his favoured position he was arguably Manchester United's most important player when they only lost the title to Manchester City by goal difference. Overall 34 goals in 44 matches that season with 12 of them scored against the Top6 teams in the Premier League is not something one does if he's shit.

Hannah 200 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 United are adamant they will not sell as they brace themselves for a written transfer request from their unhappy striker. But Chelsea are still poised to make a second offer of around £24m after their original £20m bid was rejected.http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/wayne-rooney-transfer-manchester-united-2063318 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barbara 15,149 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I'll be angry if we wont get him and wont go for anyone else instead.José is clearly playing mind games here. He first compliments the guy a lot, then shows concern about being benched impacting England NT and then he says it's him or no one else. He wants to inflate Wayne's ego and then stroke it. He knows that might be the key.He's trying to convince Rooney with his words across the world, the financial part isn't with him and he isn't in contact with ManUtd.If we end up without another striker isn't because Mourinho wanted Rooney or no one else, it's because we couldn't find the right guy for a fair price.
