Transfer Rumour Wayne Rooney

If you said to me at the start of the window....Rom and Ross out and Rooney in.....I would have said FFS!!!!

It'll take more than the business done so far to offset that and for me to head into the new season happy, although I'm fully aware Klassen and Keane could turn out to be bosstacular. I do like Sandro.

But....lots of time left for Ross to sign and for some magic to come in.

If you'd have said to me just "Rom out" at the start of the window, I'd have cried with happiness, so we have different views on things haha

I think it's been a good window so far. Not great, but good. If we sign Giroud and Sigurdsson, it's a fantastic window where we've improved in every single department.
 
Taking the pish if you meant Romelu there.

Lukaku is lazy. Statistically that's a fact - in 2015/16, he was statistically the laziest player in the entire league.

The guy stands there with is arm in the air moaning for 90% of most matches.
 
Nobody is even remotely suggesting that he's the Wayne Rooney that left and has had a stellar career, but to say he's 55 is idiotic and to suggest he can't walk three yards without breaking into a sweat is, well quite frankly, pathetic.

He's a professional footballer of outstanding quality and having passed his medical this afternoon is officially and certifiably fitter than 99.9% of all of us and a fair percentage of us out together !!

He brings a wealth of WINNING experience and in returning to his first club, he will be both mentally and physically rejuvenated as well as massively motivated to prove all the doubters and wums wrong.

If you can't see what the vast majority can see and are willing to go along with and give Wayne every encouragement and support, then yes, you are a wum in my and several others opinions.

I don't see what the problem is with somebody complaining about this? Christ we have had numerous threads down the years with many posters saying no way and multiple versions of fat and past it jokes.

I don't think the fact many fans seem to be over the moon with this today should mean the rest have to shut up.

I'm gutted we have signed Former Manchester United Football Club Legend Wayne Rooney to be honest. Not looking forward to seeing him turn out for us at all.
 

his hair is upon us!!

I'm more disappointed with the message signing Rooney sends than the signing itself. He has an alright chance of doing well for 12 months to be honest, wouldn't be surprised, but despite my feelings on Lukaku it remains a fact that we're selling a star player and replacing with one on the wane, to put it politely.

But we still have ages in this transfer window to put the message right. Rooney as a squad player will give us another option, even if not an ideal signing - £90m+Rooney for Lukaku is sensational business, because £90m alone for Lukaku would have been sensational business.

Agreed it makes us look small time but he is here now so we just need to hope there will be more signings so he is just a squad player.

To put it into perspective imagine if the RS had sold Gerrard to Chelsea when he became a star player in his early 20's only to buy him back in his 30's after several years in decline with Suarez going to Chelsea. I wonder what their reaction would be.

Must you post this constantly? No one is saying you should "shut up" but do you really feel the need to make your opinion known twice on each page of each thread related to his transfer?
