Wayne Rooney

[BlueLyon 9,359]

we have enough players for CAM , his only role is striker and only striker , dont think we'll ever shift him to a number 10, with the likes of MAZACAR ready to fill the void, even KDB too

What exactly did I say??? Some people mistakenly think that he would play as CAM behind Lukaku just because he can. But the main reason he would want to join is that he could play as striker once again.

The England forward remains extremely unsettled and is prepared to consider submitting a written transfer request to try to engineer a move to Chelsea.

His favourite position is in the hole actually.

The mail have gone with a super piece of shit tonight saying that Roo will decide his future based on the fickle reaction of the fans in the next 2 games

The main reason he wants out of United is because he doesn't want to play behind the striker.

If he comes here he's playing as a #9. Can certainly see he and Lukaku playing together up top plenty of times depending on the opposition and situation.

I don't think that is the reason because naturally he is more of a second striker rather than a pure striker.

I think the reason simply because he is no longer the first choice. There is only one more spot upfront and kagawa is a better no 10 than rooney and welbeck is better in term of marking opp dlp.

But for us, I agree he will play almost exclusively as no 9. He will give us a deep lying striker that we lack.

One of the rags saying he maybe ready to hand in a transfer request.

Chelsea are thought to be preparing a final £40m bid for Wayne Rooney #cfc #mufc

Also reported by the independent and the telegraph, I think yesterday. The rumour's been hanging in the air for some time now.

[John1611 77]

Can't wait for some concrete breakthrough. Keep looking up news in hope, yet nothing significant is likely to happen before the end of next week, and more likely before the last few days of the transfer window.

Rooney would be a bull's eye in terms of what we need to claim the highest honours this season. Not saying it's not possible without him, yet still...

[Sheva. 5,373]

You only have to watch Lukaku and co against these mediocre teams we're playing, to know they are not going to cut it against the big boys. I still can't believe we have signed no one at this stage, when we certainly had options - Cavani, Falcao, Negredo, Jovetic, Soldado, Higuain, Gomez, Bony - all upgrades over what we have, but we didn't even try to sign any.

Of course Rooney is better than some on that list, but no team goes into the window with just 1 target, there has to be a Plan B or even C
