    How do you know what other teams would be willing to pay him.It's a mute point anyway because according to Guardian no contract has been signed and negotiations are continuing

    I'm pretty sure no club is going to pay a 28 year old Rooney 300k a week, it's not like he's getting better or getting any younger, he hasn't been great this season, and he's on the wrong side of his 20's for another club to offer him 300k a week. He's a top quality player, but no way is he worth 300k a week.

    If Rooney does sign with United though, it'll just be for the money, 4 year contract worth 300k, take him to 32, and then he can go off to the states and end his career there.

    They are 'trying' to fit in with FFP now, so if they do get Rooney on 300k a week, that's going to cost them a lot of money, they'd probably have to offload 3 players just to make up for that massive wage bill. But I doubt Rooney will join Chelski if United offer him that much money, he's just going to look at the $$$, he will see he's approaching 30, and he knows he isn't going to get such a good contract afterwards, so might as well take it....All that talk of 'ambition' and bla bla will suddenly miraculously disappear and he will be satisfied playing for an average United that won't even be in the Europa League.

    And speaking of how average United are, just compare the gulf in quality between them and Liverpool, how the mighty have fallen.

    Isn't he already on 250k a week? The only way they can entice him to stay would be by offering him more money, so a 50k wage hike would make sense.

    As much as I despise United, they're damned if they do and damned if they don't keep Rooney. His agent was smart to renegotiate the contract at this pivotal moment in the club's history.

    I think as part of his new contract he gets to .

    A , Play wherever and whenever he wants .

    B , Decide on which players the club can buy .

    C , Have sex with Moyes Daughter on alternate weekends.

    D , Have sex with Moyes Mother on bank holidays excluding Aug bank holiday ( a shag in lieu )

    E , Wear a pink nighty in any match that kicks off after 7.00 pm GMT

    £300k a week for being a pretty decent, above average player, his most notable "plus" being that he is English.

    I'm sorry but I am one of the few people in this country who has *never* rated him as anything more than "yea, he's okay".

    Much like Lumplard at Chavski, he has always has better players around him that make him look better than what he is. It's no wonder he has never done **** all in an England shirt.

    According to the Moany one, they are the worst Barca side in years. But we all know that Maureen talks a lot of bollocks

    Barca would still trash Chavski :grin:
    That being said I hope City win so they have more games and the fact that Barca fans are some of the most arrogant POSs in the world. At least the City fans aren't that annoying (mainly because there's really on like 3 on here)

    To be fair to Rooney, he was quality at Euro 2004, before he got injured against Portugal.
