Does he have another guaranteed twelve or twenty four months at United? I'm not sure. So, it's either a £15m or £30m liability they are carrying on their books - all for a centre fireworks who don't fire that much any more for them.
Can't get in the England squad or the United squad - being harsh unwanted and dividing opinion on either side of the Utd/Everton fence. Media stitch him up on England duty, chips are down in his camp but he still takes c£300k every week. Stop and think about that....even the big hitters at City, Chelsea don't take that homeveach week. Ozil and Sanchez want similar but are being rebuffed - Rooney had that wage for 3 years. Shows how well he's done.
So, what next for him? On the not wanted list at United, no interest from City or Chelsea as was the case three years ago when he Utd to ransom.
For what it's worth, I can see a twelve month loan to Everton....we pay c£100k and Utd subsidise the rest. Throw in incentives like appearances, England recall, Euro qualifying, it'll play out as a win/win and option to buy. Only my view.
