Transfer Rumour Wayne Rooney

[Barnfred 55]

Agreed, would rather give the 10 shirt to Klaassen

So long as it isn't the number 8 shirt.

Hoping beyond hope they don't use the "once a blue always a blue" shirt as part of the unveil.

Oh it's gonna happen

Has anyone made a YouTube montage set to that Coming Home song yet? If not, they've got about five hours.

nope, someone made one to system of a down - chop suey instead.

an alledged salary of 150k for two seasons and fans stated Ross was being greedy!

Didn't we only offer Rom £140k?

yes United have give Rom 200 k per week Rooney will get half of his UNT salary about 150k per week - and fans moan about Ross demands!
I had a feeling Ross knew this was coming down the pipeline - a FF contact told my older brother we wanted Rooney back 6 weeks ago!

Fairly standard for free transfers to get an inflated signing bonus / wages.

Weren't we paying the Sniveller £50k a week?

Free transfers normally have increased wages due to th financial offset of not paying millions in transfer fees

Can give Klaassen 7 now that Geri's gone. 4 for Keane maybe.

 

[BornBlue76]

If he's not good enough he won't play. What's the issue apart from a long held grudge?

its being reported we knocked of 10 million of the Lukaku fee!

Barkley is half the player of Rooney

 

[Deckard2049]

Not happy at all, i think from a football point of view Koeman has made a blunder signing him,

but now he's about to sign i will be 100% behind him, i really hope i get proved wrong about the Roo.

Complete agreement mate. My hopes rest on him being fired up to be back and even more fired up to impress and win his place back for England at what will probably be his last World Cup next summer. I think everyone will be ok with this signing so long as we do actually replace lukaku with a good quality signing who isn't a short term stop gap over the age of 30.

No point being defeatist before he's even kicked a ball for us this season (even though I really want to) .

Didn't we sacrifice ten mil in the deal to get Rooney for free?

Man Utd offering Lukaku £60k a week more on his weekly salary than we offered him? Crazy.

On Barkley, said this on here in April;

I think he'll be back this summer, I also wouldn't be surprised if that's why Barkley is holding off on any contract.

Still think it's true.

Wages aside, if he stays I can't see Barkley getting a regular game under Koeman this season.
