Wayne Rooney

[communicate 2,703]

Even though we already have 3 strikers but rooney will give us a different type of striker.

I always like striker who drop deep and link up with midfielder. Somebody mentioned lewandowski which I thought will be perfect for us. But he is going to bayern so rooney is our next best option.

And Ba/Torres are not good enough, Lukaku is just potential atm.

Just get it done so he can get a few preseason games under his belt!

This will run and run, it will either go to the wire and we get him or in the next week or so he reveals he is staying.

Exactly what I'm fearing. Bad for us either way.

Bet you he ends up staying after all of this shit. He'll score loads and the idiot United fans will scream and sing his name like he never asked to leave TWICE.

I think we will get him, United will do everything not to sell to us but the teams touted about who wanted him seem to have gotten other options or are happy with what they have. We probably can match his wages or there abouts, giving him the striker role and he remains in this country. It won't be an easy deal but I can see us pulling this one off albeit a long running saga.

United really are struggling to fetch in anyone right now, Moyes all of a sudden has turned into a hypocrite after saying he won't be sold to us but actually has bid twice now for Cesc after being told he is going nowhere...it's in their blood at United.

We're going to be deadly on the counter attack with Rooney as a CF with the likes of Hazard/Mata/Oscar supporting him.

That will be one hell of a counter attacking game hazard/mata/Oscar/Kevin de brunye speed tie up with skill wow what a finish that a goal right there. You just got to love this team

Thing is, we have a good striker in Lukaku. Lukaku just started playing as a target man. he's going to be a top target man but technically, he wil never be as good of a passer/dribbiler like Rooney. Rooney is just more suited for us right now. immediate success guarenteed. Lukaku still has years to develop.

I don't think you'll find too many of us screaming his name. If he was to stay and score goals for us, we'd simply be using him just for that. Any genuine appreciation for him has gone.

I read a topic (poll too) on a United forum recently asking opinions, and of course - stay or go? It was about 70/30 in favour of him leaving. We are not idiots.

Highly knowledgable fans like yourself and those who visit football forums won't be cheering him obviously, but thousands and thousands of sheep who are just casual fans and only care about what goes on on the pitch will still love him if he stays.

If Rooney stays and says he never tried to leave in the first place as a PR stunt, most of your fans will sweep it under the rug as long he's producing. Just like the last time he did it.

I guess you have a point.

However, I think it's fine to be happy with him, if he's winning us games, but he'll never get back our respect, or adoration. Clued up fans will never buy the lies.
