Transfer Rumour Wayne Rooney

[canuckblue]

In an ideal world, Kenwright and Elstone would get punted from the club and they could go form AFC Everton, building the team around Rooney.

He was a very good player in his day but we shouldn't sign him now. There must be younger and faster options available, who don't carry all the baggage that comes with the Rooney Theme Park.

He has been playing professional football since he was 16. Thats 15/16 years of proffesional football. Thats your average players full career. And we are talking about a guy who has never really looked after himself properly and isnt a natural athlete. Hes pretty much done unfortunately.

He's hardly played at all for 12 months, though. I get that his physique doesn't work in his favour as he ages - he is naturally bulky - but if he is determined he can still train himself into shape at 32. I'd like to see him try.

Out of curiosity, how did he crap all over us?

Was seen walking around Old Trafford with Alex Ferguson whilst still our player. Kissed the United Badge when he scored
and was a big fat judas when he displayed `once a blue always a blue`
I never want to see the chubster in our shirt again, if we sign him we will a laughing stock

I honestly though he would be on a free / nominal.
Just to get his wages off the books.

Clearly I'm completely wrong, and not for the first time.

Would think there will be plenty of teams out there mate who would be willing to give decent money to the Mancs to get him.

He is currentLy on £1m a month.
£250k a week.

And he won't play.
Christ on a bike, I thought they would want rid.

As always, modern football.. Bloody hell.

Amazing how there are so many things that would make us a laughing stock doing the rounds at the moment.

Ross goes - laughing stock
Rom goes - laughing stock
Martina signs - laughing stock
Rooney signs - laughing stock

Good to see the club profile has been raised and so many are now paying attention to us.

Typical of attitudes towards Rooney, with respect. You don't score the number of goals he scored and win that many medals, if you haven't got a good work ethic. I'm not buying that.

Straight from the mouth of utds fitness coach a few years ago, there's an article somewhere on the webs when comparing his work ethic to Ronaldos, said he does the bare minimum

Ronaldo is a freak, no-one compares to him in terms of work, from what I have read, etc. Rooney would have to do more than the bare minimum, but don't see why he won't be capable of it, especially as he would have something to prove.

i think that speaks more on his immense talent

i reckon when theres a ball on the pitch then rooney will be as committed as ever,but i dont doubt that he might be a bit of a slacker in all the extra fitness rouitines that come with being a footballer these days. theres plenty of great footballers like that tbf

He has nothing to prove anymore though

And I agree he'd have to put in the extra work but like I said, why break a habit of a life time, he's never shown himself capable of it, he's too much of a scally, likes the drink a crafty ciggie and the nights out. There's a reason his careers coming to a premature end
