Player Valuation: £6m
There is absolutely no chance he'll come back to Everton while he can still expect to earn 200 grand a week elsewhere, it's a nice wet dream we all can have but let's not pretend it's anything else. If he does come back it'll be when he's a 30 something holding midfielder, his hair long since fallen out. Thanks but no thanks

If United decide this summer or even next summer, that it's time to move him on, there'd be a queue of high profile takers for him & he'd accept a move to one of them. You're deluded imo if you think that he'll sit out his contract at United for a move back to us, as he'd neither be allowed to do it, nor will he want to, as he's still got one mega money deal left in him.
p.s. Rooney was on the bench yesterday & I'd wager it's a sight we'll see more of between now & May. Oh & I gave you an example of a player who's taken a move that he doesn't really want already haven't I?
wasnt just the salary from LA it was his other commercial endorsements in america he got from moving to that club

If lampard moves there he will also get paid a lot of money from marketing himself not in the same money as beckham but still a lot, come on you know all of this.
and the reason people dont want to move to russia is because its a s***hole, fans throw pi$$ at you and no one really watches that league, look whats happened to eto an advertisement for the depressed.
and it isnt as if rooney will become a manager or has the personality to become a pundit, once he finishes playing football thats it for him.
He also splashes the cash

5million for a holiday home ffs, hence why he needs as much money as he can get his hands on
also remember he pays 50% tax on his united salary. he can only tax dodge any income he gets from off the field activities like TV or advertisments, he could easily double his income if he were to move abroad even at 30, and I think his agent will keep on reminding him of this

Well, he's got a great football brain, so I don't see why he can't play at top level into his 30s, but life as a striker will be hard when he's up against bigger and young center halves. He'll have to adapt his game and drop deeper. Not that he's ever been a out and out striker anyway, but the job of leading the line will be someone else's.

I think he'll be back at some point, unfortunately I think it will be when he's 31-33, I can't see him running his contract down at United and coming here for free.
All the more reason to follow heart not bank balance, always assuming he has more than 2 brain cells, which is not a nailed on given.
When he was with us it was fun and his play reflected it now it's a job, you're wide right this week and at 250K per week it's ok boss ( sigh )
Similar to a Mr james Paul McCartney. the whole ( original ) point of Wings was to go round the country ' anonymously ' in a van and play churchhalls etc ...get back to where you once belong.
I still think his best position in his later years will be not as striker but some where behind the striker, not quite Fellaini but more than Osman and Pienaar

Believe it or not, my nan knows his uncle (works on the black cabs) and apparently Rooney said that he will return here

We are debating a fantasy here, one which has very little chance of ever becoming a reality, IMO.
However, one way to get around such insane wage demands is to pay an insane signing-on fee. So imagine Rooney runs down his contract and can leave on a free, wouldn't giving him a signing-on fee of about 20million pound, along side wages of 70k a week, make it so he wouldn't be losing much money in comparison to his deal with United?
That's pretty similar to the investment we made with Fellaini; 15million pound transfer fee, plus expensive wages.

Yeah he and his family have pretty openly said he wants to play for us again.
The question is when and how much does he want it.

The difference being that Fellaini has a resale value greater than his purchase price. A 29 year old Rooney would have a residual value of £0.
So say you signed him on a 4 year deal at £70K per week, plus a £20M signing on fee, that would equate to over £8.5M per season.

you would hope that he would see sence and not want a big wage which shouldn't really make a difference when he would have earned plenty a million during his manchester united career. Hope he'll be back at the end of his current contract, only in the last year had i opened myself up to the possibility of it thogh. Still hadn't forgiven him for is badge kissing rubbish, even though i knew he was just being childish and never actually meant it. One thing that does shock me is that he doesn't come to watch us play at goodison much.
anyway, like everyone else on here, if it's at the end of his current contract (would obviously be on a free) then great, but if it's when he's 33 then no way - we're not desperate relegation battlers anymore.
