Fail 1: 10mill + Mata for Rooney, implying we either value Rooney in the region of 40-50mill, or we value Mata in the region of 10 (ridiculous wind-up on both counts)
Fail 2: confirms the latter - 22mill outright cash, implying the daily fail believe we only value Mata at 12 mill, even though we signed him for 16mill and he's been our player of the year 2 seasons running.... Errrr....
Fail 3: united rejected those offers, implying united believe Mata is overpriced at 12mill!
Conclusion: Epic compounded fail from the mothership of all fails - the daily fail
