Think about the effect a transfer request would have. It's Moyes' first season with the club which is going to be difficult enough. Imagine what it'll be like if they reject Rooney's transfer request and has every fan booing like crazy and destroying Rooney at every game. He'll be bombarded by Rooney questions at all times and it'll be a MASSIVE distraction for the entire year.

If something goes wrong you'll hear "why didn't Rooney play up top?" or "why was Rooney on the bench?"

If we bid 30m and he hands in a transfer request I think they'll sell. If not, fuck 'em. Let them keep an unsettled player and we can buy Suarez.

I just think it's 50m because it's Arsenal that's bidding. Liverpool think of Arsenal as a direct competitor for that coveted 4th spot. They know we're a class above them so I'd think they be much easier to work with than United.

I'm sure we could do business with them. Maybe something like 35m + Ba since they're gonna need a striker. Ba could thrive there with the play from the wings they have.

We knew they wouldnt accept an extra £2m on our original offer. £23m to £25m wont do the trick, even with add-ons. Because if you are unaware the selling club aren't guaranteed to receive the add-ons as they're dependant on certain criteria being met. So in essence the bid is only £25m. Soon as/if a transfer request goes in, Utd could still reject it, (but it depends how hard Rooney himself pushes and makes a case to move) but soon as it is handed in I'd expect a big bid to go in like £30-35m without add ons.

It is now time for Rooney to make his point heard.

Chelsea should not go above 30 million.

Does not make economical sense to pay 40 million, when we can just wait till next season and they will be forced to sell!

I believe if we are to wait for a year then Rooney shouldn't be considered as a primary target then.Its either now or never.

Why would a transfer request all of a sudden make Manure sell him to us? LOL

Generally speaking players forgo loyalty bonuses when they hand in a transfer request. In my opinion the Glazers would never sell him without the formal transfer request, and Rooney's camp would always be loathe to make one if they don't have to.
