Wayne Rooney

We never have a deal agreed haha, they was publicly stating he was not for sale all this summer.

Fair enough. Some reports seem to say though we had 60 million agreed, and they dishounoured the deal.

Just spend the damn £35m on Jackson please and save us all the trouble.

I'd rather spend that money signing Eto'o and Witsel/Mangala.

No kidding. 35M for Martinez would be the most disappointing signing in recent memory.

[Strike 6,977]

He's not gonna force a move though. That's a big blow

Maybe,you thought the same about Drogba,when he arrived to Chelsea,after playing one good season in a poor french league.

Mourinho said this will go on until the very last day of the transfer window and he has little reason to lie about that. A lot can happen in 5 or so days, especially in football. Still a few twists and turns remain.

no he said he gives rooney 24-48 hours to decide. and it seems that rooney has made his decision. in the end we will have the world-class Etoo (the one from barca/inter days as some on this board seem to believe) to our disposal.

60m? Obviously he would have play the match yesterday in a Blue shirt if that is the case.

There's a reason Eto'o plays in Russia, and its not due to the money.. Christ, there goes our PL title hopes.

Pretty sure it is...

Insert something about ''proven in BPL'' here. I agree.

Really? "BPL proven" is the most overrated thing on the world of football!

Cavani is one of the best strikers is the world. And, although he is not worth all that money, Rooney doesnt get close to it...

[nadavTKL 1,787]

Wow, you belive THAT?! 60m for Rooney agreed and Man U didn't "honor their word"?

come on... Faria? i hear he's crazy.

[Pizy 17,861]

Just think of it this way: They played their strongest side and were at home. We played with Schurrle up front and without our best player and they still couldn't score. Cech didn't even break a sweat.

We come away from that game with the same mindset. We're still 2 players short of having a complete squad. A striker and a CM.

LOOOL at everybody who said I was lunatic when I said Rooney didnt want to leave nor play at Chelsea and he was only having a diva issue so he could have his ego taken care...

Whilst I agree, this deal looks dead in the water now, IF it does end up happening, you may end up looking very silly when this post gets dug up and quoted several times.

I agree with your point, but I'd never throw my eggs into a basket and proclaim it until the window was shut........

Similarly, I guess you could quite easily quote this post and make me look silly if it doesn't happen

After yesterdays game i just cant stop thinking of how good Rooney would fit our team. Strikers like Cavani and Torres just doesnt work for us, we need someone like Rooney.

[Christo191 173]

someone like Rooney.

that's the key really someone like him but not him!

[cadenza666 221]

also on BBC

Manchester United's Wayne Rooney has no plans to force a move to Chelsea by handing in a transfer request.

I know I was being sarcastic

[Sheva. 5,373]

60m for him must be some kind of joke. We need a striker, yesterday all the good he did was playing as a cam. He hasn't played as striker for over a season in the PL, and when he has for England, hasn't exactly been great. 60m? Lol.
