'Rooney is definitely coming back in the summer, and what's more, he will be playing alongside Lukaku. Lukaku will be kicking off next season with Everton, and if we are not in the top four by the January transfer window, then he will be sold.

So now, I wait for all the posts to come flying in: "Yeah, it's all a load of **** who's your source? Lukaku is definitely going in the summer," blah, blah, blah!!!

My source, well obviously I won't reveal who my source is; safe to say it's a very very close relative who works and is based in Old Trafford.

My source has daily contact with a lot of United players, and was speaking to Rooney a couple of weeks back, who said he was returning to Everton in the summer, and had been told of Lukaku's situation.

So, as I said, you can believe me or not, but we shall be seeing Rooney in an Everton shirt next season, and certainly alongside Lukaku for at least half the season.'

I can guarantee it's not true - Lukaku, no matter what, will not be sold in a January transfer window. We wouldn't murder our own season for no reason, regardless of whether it's challenging for the top four or in a relegation battle.

That said, I expect Lukaku to be here next season - or gone for £80m+. It's a win either way.

And I 100% expect Rooney to be here at this point, as somewhat depressing as that is given he's clearly very, very finished and I'd rather we went for Sigurdsson etc. instead of clogging up both a squad space and our wage structure.

That's a new one that. Could have sworn he jumped ship at the first time of asking and gave his entire prime to another club. Regards heritage, he left at 18. He was barely at the club. He's a footnote at Everton who achieved everything with another club (all time record goalscorer) in the same league. He's a Manchester United legend.

A "true" Evertonian takes great pleasure banging in the goals against Everton? Its clearly a game he was especially up for as he seemed to do it a lot...the image of him sliding across the Goodison turf sticks out among many other wild celebrations. Checking teletext (or soccer Saturday on sky sports) and saw Everton 0 -1 Manchester United (Rooney) you thought...true Evertonian that?

This true Evertonian waited until four days before the window shut to hand in his transfer request knowing he had the club over barrel. His last season with us he got more yellows than goals, and I would fancy him to carry that trend on next season.

Only thing I don't agree with there is Rooney being 100% finished.

If he comes it'll be because Koeman thinks he can get the best (relatively speaking) out of him. Play him right and he'll be very useful, especially with Europa.

Sigurdsson I think will still be a target regardless of the Rooney situation.

There's no way anyone could say definitively at this point whether Lukaku stays or goes this summer.

If a bid lands that the club feel matches their valuation of him he'll be sold, simple as, as he's refused to extend his stay.

The scenario that he'll be sold in Jan if we're out of the CL spots is nads imo, as the mega money moves very rarely take place in Jan.

Just a thought regarding that - do you think he was informed by the club to wait (to hand in a transfer request) as it guaranteed the fee couldn't be used to buy a replacement and instead 'disappear' to pay the debt? it wouldn't be the first time a players' reputation has taken a hit for the good of the club (Gary Speed)

*edit: this is purely conjecture on my part by the way.
