Wouldn`t really say Distin was a one off, more that Defenders can usually get away with being a bit older. Richard gough was an exellent buy at the time. the clever ones use the experience and tricks they`ve picked up over the years to compensate for losing a bit of pace.We dont do 33/34 year olds anymore. Especially has beens, the likes of Ginola and Gascoigne. The purchase of Distin has been a one off and hes actually been a very astute purchase. Under Moyes a 33/34 year old Rooney just would not happen.
I think he definitely wants to come back and I honestly think he would if it wasnt for a few big factors.
1. United will want a massive fee that we could never afford.
2. Although I think he would be happy to take the massive pay cut I cant see his missus being very happy with him making a quarter of what he is on now with him being a family man and all that.
Love that he still kits his kids out in our shirts though, once a blue always a blue and all that.
You make it sound like he'd be going from £40k a year to £20k a year.
He'd still be earning millions of pounds a year.
Anyone else think he looks like a lost soul at utd these days...and infact for a good year or so now???
Been replaced as top dog and IMO just doesn't seem to have the same enthusiasm as he once had there.
When's his contract run to?
You do wonder if he's ready for a new challange to reinvent himself or even going back to an old challange he never really took part in long enough?
Thoughts?
I suppose you've never heard of player power.
They can't just sell him if he doesn't want to go anywhere.
Don't be so naive.
If they want to get a cash return on him then he'll be sold, there'd be plenty of takers as well.
i use to chat some shiite when i was a cabbie.
