I do actually think he'll be dropped soon (well, before Christmas) and will be a squad player by the end of the season. Whether he's sold or not depends if we can find any cnut daft enough to pay his wages.
These stories always start with "it's The Sun so it's bollocks"
United are in for Pogba? Typical nonsense from the Sun.
This article will be the first of many and it's interesting now how the tide is turning against Rooney. Expect this story to build as the season progresses.
They are shite. Pogba stuff alone (these are the ones just with 'exclusive' on, there's plenty of other tweets saying he'd definitely sign for City as little ago as this April):

Most journos will take the truth, then sensationalise it. So most stories have a small element of truth.
The Sun however, completely fabricate their stories.
If The Sun stated that 'water is wet' or 'grass is green', I wouldn't believe them.
Why not "locked? Why not "deleted"? Why not "sanctioned not to make useless threads with tweets from clickbait tabloid rag outlets as the OP"? A waste of everyone's time really.

Except it is not a waste of anyone's time. The fact it's by those toss pieces at the sun is right there in the title, in fact it is the first two words, not interested? Don't click. No time wasted.
Used to be good quality paper. I remember when it was good for wrapping bones for the neighbours dog or keeping chips warm until you got, especially page 7.

You maybe joking I dont know, but Basti when injured only cared about getting fit for the Euros, im glad he is where he is now because he didnt care at all for Utd last season and that is the reason hes rotting now.
He also fecked off around the world watching his wife play tennis whilst injured.
Rooney as annoying as he is at least turns up to support the team whilst injured.
