You could be right on this, there is also the court case between the two which can`t be easy to forget. There is no way Moyes is going to say Rooney is for sale, he will want to get the best price for him which won`t be easy after the last years performance and attitude.
I just can't see United selling to us. They know we are a threat and won't risk Rooney hitting form with us. Still has a lot to offer though and would work perfect in the 'Drogba' role with the likes of Mata, Hazard, Oscar, Schurle off him. He wont get that role at United now, that is evident. Wonder though if Fabregas went to United whether that would change things?
I see Sky are linking all the top 4 clubs with Fabregas now. Good player but maybe not what we need given he tends to play further forward since leaving the gooners.
In the last 5 seasons he's scored above 20 goals 3 times and 19 on one occassion for real. Has pretty much a 1 in 2 record for them, Good player.
That ain't half bad at all! I'd take that! I mean apart from Rooney... there aren't that many left... Given Cavani signed for PSG today...
Not a bad shout, though however much we offer, I still doubt United's willingness to sell to us. However with Cavani finally settling the PSG move we are his only destination for a move, and they could be forced into letting it happen. Either way, I think De Rossi is more exciting as transfers go.
With Xavi and Sergio Busquets in the squad he was always going to play further forward. Sky source said 35m would convince Barca to sell, but with Thiago out the door it is less unlikely in my opinion. But I said it before and I say it now, Fabregas as part of central midfield two or three would suit us perfectly. He can pass and score goals, granted his tackling is not much but hey, we cant have everything For 24/25m he is good enough, not an all round player but a guaranteed goal poacher, lets not forget he has been banging them in whilst sharing one strikers role with Karim Benzema and with no penalties due to Ronaldo. I would sign him but I reckon it is Rooney or Suarez for us
Rooney thing is getting interesting. Can't see how it can carry on. It seems he fell out with Fergie and obviously has previous with Moyes (plus the back up to RVP comment). Can't see United risking strengthening a rival but then again, there doesn't seem to be anywhere left for Rooney to go save for perhaps Arsenal. I wonder if United got Fabregas they'd let Rooney leave?
If they can find an adequate replacement then I think they'd let us have him, don't see that replacement being Fabregas though. Bale?
Bale not going to happen IMO. The money Bale would cost, United just don't spend. Bale will have another 1-2 years at Spurs and if he keeps his level up, will probably replace Ronaldo at Real, perhaps with Ronaldo heading back to United (more likely some cash rich club like Monaco though!!) Whilst Fabregas and Rooney are different players, they are both attack minded players so depending on the system Moyes adopts, I could see Fabregas off RVP working well. They obviously know each other from Arsenal too. They then have the likes of Hernandez, Welbeck, Nani, Kagawa etc as back up. Still have a feeling Rooney will be forced to stay though.
