Wayne Rooney

Rooney has unfollowed the twitter account of Manchester United.

He never followed them

EDIT: should say there conflicting stories as to whether he ever followed them or not. Dont know how you would ever find out

[bushman 2,043]

I believe, if the story is true, Chelsea do have enough money to cover the deal without FFP knocking on their door.

Just one little thing here. The transfer fee at 40m plus his wages. How about Falcao for almost the same deal ?

[Heisenberg 1,824]

NO IT REALLY ISN'T. We got enough space for one more top earner.

Nando is payed £175,000 a week, 9 M€ a year, Hazard & Lampard are also big earners.Our transfer policy past two-three years changed dramatically, since the Luiz-Torres episode, with the FFP coming and the way we deal with players now it lets me think it is very very difficult for us to splash the 40 M€ for Rooney + his 250,000-a-week and say we are ready for the new rules.If we still can afford such wages then why dont we bid for other strikers ? If Torres stays Rooney wont come.

Mourinho just said if Rooney bid fails, he still has plan b and plan c. No names as the players belong to other clubs.

Thanks God for that. I'm not one of the people who really wants Rooney here. I mean he's better than what we have, but I'd rather we'd get another high level striker... whoever that is. As long as it is a high level striker

I guess Eto'o is the plan B, but who could be the plan C? Hmm..

[Sheva. 5,373]

If that's true we know 2 of the options are Rooney and Eto'o, wonder who the other is...

Martinez perhaps

Plan A : Rooney

Plan B : Eto'o

Plan C : Unknown striker from Portugal.

[Milan 17,859]

I almost wish it was Zlatan...

[DanishBlue 426]

Well, at least we can be like 90% sure that we will have a new striker soon. Always interesting with a new striker even though it's not Rooney

Somehow, I am with you on it. Rooney to me is not worth 300 thou a week as offered, providing it´s true.

Somehow, his character over the years does not seem right to me.

That guy from Porto Martinez would be my choice. Even Eto´o is not my cup of tea.

[blu35_army 551]

Plan C : Torres itself!!! if he shine,,would be like a new signing...

[Sovieticus 743]

You really think we have plan C? Obviously he was making jokes.

Why the fuck not?

Plan A : Rooney

Plan B : Eto'o

Plan C : Unknown striker from Portugal.

if you were referring to Jackson Martinez/Oscar Cardozo they are most definitely not unknowns

[Mouri_Matic 560]

Sometime plan B/C turns out better than plan A...

Mata instead of Modric

Dave instead of Van Der Wiel

I would LOVE it to be Zlatan!

It was actually Mata for Pastore, and thank fuck that didn't happen.
