The Rooney I know would be magnificent for Chelsea, but the Rooney I believe we will get will be a huge disapointment. :(

It's definitely a gamble, but if we get him and ideally ship off Torres our strike force looks a million times better. Even when Rooney's not on form he still brings a lot to the team - and that's the biggest difference between him and Torres.

Rooney supposedly just came off a bad season but he still scored 12 goals and managed to get 10 assists in 22 PL starts despite being played all over the place.

It'd be okay if he's injured or off form as we'd have Lukaku here alongside Ba (hopefully) who would easily be able to fill the void until he gets back.

Honestly, the benefits of signing Rooney outweigh the drawbacks by far in my opinion. Still easily a world class player, even if he didn't have the best of seasons in 2012/13. Many forget that he grabbed 35 for United the season before when he was played as the number 1 striker.

If we get Rooney, I believe we'd have the best front 4 in England and one of the best in Europe, by a sheer mile. Rooney as the front man, hes a technically gifted player who can interchange with the 3 behind him. He has a footballing brain, as do Mata, Hazard and Oscar, it would be incredible to see them link up.

Rooney could come deeper to get the ball, opening up spaces similar to what Messi does for Barca, drawing his marker out allowing Mata/Hazard/Oscar to have more room to receive the ball in/get into goal scoring positions due to the fact hes moved a player out of his position receiving the ball/looking to receive the ball. He can also play as a pure 9, getting onto the end of crosses/scoring goals in and around the box.

I know what you mean and I completely agree (even said something similar my self a few weeks back without the Messi comparison), but you will get absolutely slatted here for saying this! :lol:

Sorry to ruin the Apple - Samsung debate lads...

Mourinho on Rooney in Bangkok: "It would be wrong to talk about other players...but yes I do like him".

"Rooney is a player I like very much but I can say no more than that. Being fast and direct, I like that, but he's a MUFC player."

Rooney injury a grade one tear so it's minor. Happened before flight to Bangkok. Club thought it minor but now want treatment at Carrington.
