samzilla 517 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Funny how everyone talk about his terrible performance but forgot that he had a goal wrongly ruled out for offside...Still worth £30-£40m to me, I would bid at that.You mean the goal that happened long after the whistle had blown and everyone, including mcgregor, had given up on the play? Of course he put it in the net. No one was trying to stop him. Was still a great pass tho picking him out like that. Terrible offside call. Wasn't even close.

The only place to be 11,313 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Looney has been crap for England since his debut on the Euros, anyone who denies that simply doesn't watch the English NT often. He has never turned up for a Tournament after the Euros and he is constantly showing his worst attributes while playing for England. Not worth over 30 million pounds and 200k per week wages, United won't sell to us, move on. I expect him to flop if he ever leaves United, he only has around 2-3 more years of top football in him. Name one England player who hasn't under-performed in major tournaments? That includes the likes of Gerrard, Lamps, Becks, and JT.Moyes once again said he isn't for sale, but this bloke is about to bid again for Cesc. :lol2:It is a rather amazing example of cognitive dissonance...or maybe Moyes is just cracking up already. Cesc actually came out and said he was at his dream club, whereas Rooney has let the media talk for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's simply bad business practice to say any item is for sale when an item that isn't available is more valuable. The formal transfer request is still to come and that may change a lot, simply because it saves the Glazers millions of pounds in the event of a sale.

United are a big club and not Liverpool or similiar. I really dont see it coming, only if United buy some star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Las7 951 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Name one England player who hasn't under-performed in major tournaments? That includes the likes of Gerrard, Lamps, Becks, and JT.I'm not talking about other England players, I'm just saying that even if when was fit he would underperform for England. He is the main man, Lampard/Gerrard have underperformed because they have been played together and that hurts both their games specially Lampards. Beckham is overrated, John Terry is a defender and England's issue has not been the defense but the lack of a World Class defensive midfielder and not enough balance and ability to keep the ball. Looney is part of the problem because he has been picked for England despite always being awful for the NT(apart of his debut), the other problem is that Looney would be more effective if he was played in the position Gerrard and Lampard play because he would be more involved in the build up and won't have to be marooned between two defenders. Looney is a better "10" than a "9" and he doesn't seem to realize it, he should not be playing as a lone forward in England or us/United/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it rhymes with Rooney and implies he's mad. Jesus.....Whitman, Twain, Wilde you guys can fuck off because we've chanced upon a true wit in our midst.Anyway, guffawing aside I disagree with most of that. I pay so little attention to the national team's performances because frankly I don't care for them. What I have seen with Rooney is a player who steps up in the big moments (Champions League Finals, last minutes of title deciders against local rivals) when given the mantle of 'main guy'. A guy who has scored 100 goals in the last four seasons despite being shuffled to and fro to accommodate other players and a guy who can lead the line and bring other players into the game.To me, he is the ideal choice to spearhead our front four.he can say it one time or two times. but he already said it at least 10 times. thats not normal, if you dont really want to keep hold of the player. look at AVB. he isnt even commenting the Bale saga, because he knows, that Bale could leave. United are a big club and not Liverpool or similiar. I really dont see it coming, only if United buy some star.He keeps getting asked, and for some reason he keeps answering. It's almost like people in the media don't believe him.United are a big club....they also sold their biggest player (one of the two biggest players in the world in fact) a few years ago. There is a long time left in this transfer window and a lot of cards left to be played by both sides, but anyone who expected something to be done before our league game with them was kidding themselves.

However, we both know if he puts in the transfer he is bound to lose a lot of money. Therefore, this ass won´t do it. if he was so adamant on leaving, he would have done it a month ago. I highly doubt he will come to play for Chelsea.Since manures refuse to let him go, he can not afford to put in the transfer. Just in case he is made to stay. Can you imagine Rooney in front of the manure crowd, then ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
