http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2011/jun/30/david-gill-fa-manchester-united Old article but some may have not read Waynes motives!! Gill recounted the "bolt from the blue" of Rooney informing the club he wanted to leave, starting with a telephone call from the player's agent, Paul Stretford, on 14 August. "We already had some discussions [about a new contract] going on, then I had a call indicating Wayne didn't want to sign a new deal, [that] he had some issues and didn't want to sign a new contract. "That was the first we'd heard of it because [before then] there had been discussions going on to a timetable that had been agreed. I was pretty shocked, to be honest. I had a good working relationship with Paul Stretford, having done deals with him over a number of years and there was never any indication that this was the call he was going to make." Rooney changed his mind after several weeks of lobbying behind the scenes â "I wouldn't say there were discussions every day but there was regular contact," Gill said â and John O'Shea recounts in the book how the players reacted to a team-mate questioning whether the other players were good enough to challenge for trophies. "It transpired it was just an interesting technique of getting a new deal," O'Shea said. "I think Wayne, if he could turn back the clock, might do things a bit differently, but both parties were happy in the end. "He came [into the Carrington dressing room after signing his new deal] and apologised to everyone. He said he'd done what he had to do, basically, and he was sorry if he had offended anybody. Obviously there were a few comments that will stay in the dressing room. They were quite smart and funny, but all friendly." His motives are about just money and the way he kept lieing through his teath!! disgusting really. He was even willing to join Man City.
Do you just spend all day looking for something negative to post about United and their players? It's all you seem to do, except in Nani's case of course because we all know you dream about spooning him every night.
How blind can you be? O'Shea has just said that all Rooney was doing was trying to get a new contract, and you start talking about him wanting to join City?!? Can you even read English?
So are you finally breaking cover back to the Arsenal board now that a midfield signing appears imminent? If you run you might be able to wave Fabregas and Nasri off.Bye
Arsenal fan? Why Arsenal? Why not Chelsea or another team. I mean you guys are running out of ideas . I know and you know I am a Utd fan. Time to face the truths. However, my point still stands. Rooney is a disgrace.
Why bring this up now? Are you getting practice for hating Utd players now just in time for the new season? Remember keep spouting Rooney is a disgrace etc etc and it'll be deleted.
Finally, an article written with a strong footing that enlightens us on how Rooney goes about his business. Good read, well done Valencia25, an interesting read.
I doubted you a few weeks back whether you are a United and asked you 4 simple questions to which you never replied. so to give you the benefit of the doubt here's ONE simple question if you are facing Old Trafford from the Trafford cross roads. which side of the road is the Lou Macari chip shop? is it left? or is right? here's a clue it's not off the Islington High st.
