Leif 6,006 Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Like Torres, he will repay the transfer fee in kit sales & merchandise alone. Also all his 'independent' deals (which he has a lot of) have stipulations where a certain percentage of whatever Rooney is paid from them goes to the club. Something like 20%. The only potential issue or worry worth mulling over is wages. The transfer fee quite frankly is irrelevant when you sign a proper top player who's a brand themselves, regardless whether they're at their peak or not.We could have (potentially) signed Beckham from LA Galaxy for £20m and would have made that money back.

Totally right, I would buy a couple of kits to support his transfer fee.------- Rooney --------Hazard - KDB - Mata/me jizz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DustinC 136 Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 The tricky thing with these long transfer threads is finding something to add at page 111 that you haven't previously stated..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosnian Blue 2,471 Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 40M is a bit too much, I personally wouldn't go over 30M. If he comes then somebody really needs to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting rather tiresome now. Wish Rooney would make a statement one way or another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutcho 8,443 Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 I keep hearing different things. Has he already handed in a transfer request or not? I thought he had, which sparked this whole thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary gordon 1,777 Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 How would his Nike deal figure in the whole situation? Probably be the first time he wears an Adidas kit. Would it hurt his contract with Nike? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it hurt his contract with Nike?Highly doubt it. Generally if a player is sponsored by a company it's normally with boots and casual wear. Take Ronaldo for example, wears a lot of nike gear but plays for Madrid or Terry and umbro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDA 9,937 Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 obviously not BRO but having read the initial tweets and understood it was JT (hey what do you know, I can read properly) that was being talked about (seemed obvious) that why I was surprised he didnt know who 26 was!Dude you are very confused lol. I can't be assed to explain because you are one of those ignorant, 'my shit doesn't stink' kind of people... ask Muzchap what he meant. He will confirm with you that I was indeed right in correcting you. He even thanked me for it. Enough of this shit anyway, I wasn't intending to offend but you clearly won't accept that you misunderstood the details of his post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Stay patient. We got time. It is Wayne fuckin Rooney. He is no Torres who relies on perfect passes into space. Rooney can come in, not knowing jack of our tactics and still make an impact. Even though it will be funny with him dropping back having Rooney, Mata, Lampard, Oscar, Hazard all strolling within square yards in front of the opposition's box while in possession. The decision will not be made too soon. Utd will check out how much we are offering before considering the possibility of selling him to us. They lose anyway. Either they have an unmotivated, unhappy player on outrageous wages or become a laughing stock because of practically handing us the title.

Badboy 1,526 Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 The thing that worries me with Rooney is why is he so scared of competition as if he wouldn't get that at Chelsea ? He has an inferiority complex against RVP and it just shows that everything has to revolve around Wayne Rooney and do I really want that type of player at Chelsea ? I really don't know ! At first I was looking at this transfer and I was excited but Iv'e started to take other factors into consideration and started to use my head more then my heart and I've got reservations at the moment and those reservations are not going away !

I think it's the part where Moyes showed him nothing but total disrespect. If that were me and I had my manager say those words about me I would feel disgusted. Not because what he is saying may be true at the present time but for the fact that he has not even started training Wayne as of yet. He has been manager of United for not even a month yet and to be saying what has been said I would want to move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooney wanted to leave when Alex Ferguson was still the Man United manager and he handed in the transfer request which Ferguson admitted in public. I think he see's the fact that United have RVP and Hernandez and he doesn't fancy the task ahead in all honesty and a few former players like Micheal Owen have said it in the past few weeks. If he thinks he ain't gonna get major competition from a confident Lukaku then he's mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
