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.
 
We'll find some Chinese team for sure!

The sun...

Exactly.

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.
 
To quote one of the great movies of the 21st century: I want to believe.
 
Watch him get a hat-trick against Watford at the weekend. :lol:
 
PLEASE can we stop making threads based on utter shite sources such as The Sun. There's just no point discussing it because it's 99.9% boar shit
 
The Sun is almost as bad as the Metro at this point in terms of reliability. Ignore.
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.
 
I refuse to click the link because it's The Sun but I also hope it's actually true no matter how untrue it'll actually be.
 
I can hope but it is more hope than anything else. A bit like this article as well.
 
This time the gang in balaclavas outside Rooney's home will be threatening him to go through with it.

Wow, where's that leave Britney alone video :lol:

tbf if the Sun reported United are in for Pogba, it probably was still completely made up BS, even though it actually happened later on in real life.
 
Rooney should've been Basti'd way before Basti
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.

Stop talking sense. You're disrupting the Rooney bashing. ;)
 
It doesn't say a lot for The Sun's sources that hardly any other newspaper has covered this supposedly massive story.

Exactly. If only we could get the guardian to run with it the redcafe servers would be permanently knackered
