Wayne Rooney

[ulsterchelsea 3,221]

I don't believe Moyes. why they not rejected our offer with official statement? Roo will not stay he already knows that Rvp is first choice of Moyes. Time to change for Rooney but if he stay It would be the biggest mistake he can make.

They have officially rejected the bid

[Special Juan 27,439]

Up the bid, make sure the loyalty bonus is covered, Gollum will be enraged and we get Rooney...

[bushman 2,043]

Who cares whether, it was rejected officially or not ? Manures are not going to sell him to Chelsea, at least I think so.

Over the years, I have seen Chelsea the first team to buy players. Now, all I see some dicking around.

How are we going to challenge for trophies when Ferda & BA are the strikers ?

How exactly are we dicking around? And please don't throw Jovetic and Negredo back at me because you have no time scale as to how long City had been in talks/pursuit of them. Deals, especially like this Rooney one are not like Football Manager, it's not a click of a button. This is a top class player from a rival team, a team that are not willing to sell, yet a player who is annoyed at recent events.

We have only bid for him, we haven't even got down to the nitty gritty of negotiations yet and that's when it gets tough. There is well over a month for things to transpire and yet people are nearly throwing themselves off bridges and rocks because we haven't signed a striker....

Get in the real world, and be patient FFS.

Now, I see you are an expert on transfer deals. Amazing.

Deals have been done by Chelsea much quicker in recent years. Now, let me tune you in. Falcao, not willing to pay, Cavani not willing to pay...the list goes on...Roonski bid submitted & rejected. Wha´s next a few more millions, I assume. Deal rejected by Manures. The result = Chelsea got Ferda & Ba to rely on. By January, these two are scoring perhaps 3 goals apiece. What then ?

[Pizy 18,419]

We really aren't gonna get him are we?

They'll keep an unhappy, want away player just to prove a point.

[xPetrCechx 13,563]

If They Don't Want to Sell- Just buy Suarez... Offer 30-45.

No, I'm not an expert, but I am also not an impatient gullible mug who thinks deals should be done yesterday. You can only truly say a deal was done quick if you know the timescale of the first contact point, which I doubt anyone does without the manager saying so.

Regards Cavani and Falcao the club obviously thought the price was too high and the risk too, with Rooney the price will be hugely different but a PL proven player. Not everything in life has to be 40-50M plus, and I know some on here think all our signings should be, you crack on.

The lack of faith and impatience you are showing is typical of today's football faithful, everything has to be done yesterday at the biggest dollar possible. I know in your world the transfer window is closed and we will be relegated so good luck on that one.

Arsenal offered £30m then £35m and was rejected. He won't go for anything less than £40-£50m.

[Beirut_Blues 306]

Why are Arsenal in the bidding of Suarez and we're not?

Suarez is better than Rooney.

WOW HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHA

[Mouri_Matic 560]

This is soooo similar to Fabregas saga, only difference is that it was his former club while with Rooney it would be new. Remember how Xavi, Iniesta, Valdes and just about every Spanish person in Barcelona heap praise on him and tell the media how they all wanted him home. The same is happening with Rooney, from Cech, Mark, Hazard and even Mourinho himself.

So bid 40-45 and buy a world class striker for once and for all!!!

[Changingman_2000 876]

We paid 50M for Torres, How does compare to 22M for Rooney?, similar age when transferred. The fee suggests that Chelsea rated Torres as twice the player Rooney is? The club didnt seem to have any issues with lumping fifty big one's to Snivelpool but just 22 for Rooney? Rooney did dip last season, and was very out of sorts, but no less than the form Torres was in prior to his transfer to us.

I also have reservations with the Mata issue, want him to stay badly but his name has been banded around too much for these to be nothing in it. Wouldn't mind Rooney as I think Jose could, and would, work on him, but at the expense of Mata? no thanks. Wouldn't mind seeing if Jose can get more out of Torres, if anyone can, Jose can. Having said all that, TFSW has a few euro's at his disposal at Napoli and I wouldn't put it past him putting an offer in for Torres.

I don´t believe I am impatient at all. As I said, previous Chelsea´s deals were done much better & quicker.

If you think, Manures will sell Roonski for 25m, then I honestly have doubts about you. Roonski, if sold, will not go under 32-35m.

There are other major players bidding for players, big money. Either Chelsea keep up or 3rd or 4th place next season.

Why would we want that cunt? or at there simply no moral fibre left in football anymore. I would rather eat my own shit.

[didierforever 7,349]

i think people need to get back to reality from all the fifa and FM. we have adopted a brilliant strategy to acquire rooney with mou openly speaking about in public and then even cech saying things about him. there is no way we could have got rooney if we simply had put in a deal. united would always have wanted a little more for him and in the end we would have had to pay OTT. but now that our interest is so obvious it is for rooney to decide what to do. he can force moyes' hand for the transfer which would save us many millions.

also people are talking about falcao and cavani and blaming the board for it but paying 51 mil and 60 mil for these guys would have been insane and we did the right thing in not taking the easy way out. also even if we dont get rooney, PL is still very much up for grabs, its not a lost cause.
