Hope we don't sell to Chelsea, that would be a disaster no matter how much we got for him. Sell abroad, even if its ~10m less please.
 
Don't let him lift the trophy!

Seriously though, what's the reaction going to be like when he lifts it?

The last time we lifted the trophy he got the loudest cheer when his name was called out during the presentation and that was the same year he fecked us about. I doubt the rumors will make a difference on how is treated on Sunday. Even if he comes out before Sunday and says "I am leaving" he deserves to leave with a bit of respect.
 
Graham Hunter was on Newstalk saying Rooney wants to stay in England, and it's Chelsea who have approached him. Apparently he quite likes the idea of playing with Mata, Hazard, and Oscar. He went on to say that United won't sell to City, but may entertain selling to Chelsea.

I'd say to him, either stay put or you're going abroad. How dare he try to dictate where he will go. Unless of course Levy would take him in part exchange for Bale. If he went to Chelsea I would want Mata as part of the deal.

They paid £50 million for Torres, they better be prepared to top that if they want him.

A few years ago he wanted the club to sign better players, and now they've done so he doesn't like them being better, and throws a tantrum.

Hard not to think of him as giant spoiled prick when you put it like that.

If he wants to leave, he should leave. But that doesn't mean he didn't contribute to what we did this season. There is no reason for acrimony if he and the club have grown apart, I can't see he's done anything wrong. If he wants a fresh challenge, if he feels he isn't being played in his preferred position, there is no malice in that. I'd hope he'd see now there will be new management, he doesn't necessarily need to leave for a fresh start. But if he has his heart set on Bayern, for example, I'd wish him well.
 
Here are Chelsea fans view of the transfer:

No thanks. Only one of Cavani/Lewandowski/Falcao will be acceptable not Rooney. His legs went years ago.

He's past his best. He has a lifestyle problem. Sex, drinking, smoking. In short, unprofessionalism. He's also very aggressive on the pitch and shows a lot of dissent which gets unpunished because he plays for Utd, but at Chelsea he'd be crucified, as he would for his lifestyle. The guy's going to end up washed-up long before his time. We need to keep well away from him if we know what's good for us. I doubt very much Jose would countenance the transfer.

Rooney could very very easily become another Torres - if he hasn't already

i would probably accept us signing Rooney for 20 million if we sold Torres for the same amount but its another big gamble

We already paid a fortune for one washed up Scouser. Don't need another

I don't want Rooney anywhere near Chelsea, it would be an epic fail.

Not only is he past his best, in poor fitness and not as good as the media make him out to be, buying him makes no sense when their are better players available. Rooney's wages are just not justifiable and his lifestyle will attract more negativity to Chelsea that we just do not need.

NO!

As others have said his legs are gone. So is his motivation I think.

Falcao please.

No Thank Roo

For £20m, yes.

But anything more than that it's too much.

hall we buy an overpaid player that's on the decline?

No thanks, we already have one!

Umm... let's see. Overweight, massively over-rated, unintelligible superchav scouse git with an hair transplant, creamed over by the likes of Clive Tyldesley on a distrurbingly regular basis.
There's a lesson to be learned here, I feel: Do not touch with an extra long bargepole.

Rooney is an over-rated twat who wouldn't fit into our system even if he was good enough, which he isn't. We need an out-and-out striker, not some scouse ponce who runs around like a maniac and getting sent off on a frequent basis. Even if I rated him, which I most certainly don't, I could never bring myself to trust a man who wears his arse-hair on his head.

There are far, far better strikers out there that we should be seriously considering buying. Rooney isn't even the best forward at Manchester United - why the f*ck would we want him at Chelsea???

He is fat, overrated, past his best and has a bad attitude. No thanks.

Good god no.

He isn't the sort of striker we are looking for regardless of the fact I think he is massively over-rated.

He would cost a fortune and is on silly wages, past his best and he is fat.

For someone who laugahbly gets called the 'white pele' you would think he might have managed to get himself a golden boot in his time in the Premiership considering he has generally been a first choice forward (& penalty taker) for the most successful club in the country in that time.

Serioulsy I don't want that fat turd anyhwhere near the club.

Seriously, I do not want Rooney anywhere near Chelsea Football club. He's got FLOP written all over him.

There is no way Chelsea would break up that trio. If Gill and Fergie were in charge I doubt they would sell him to a rival, I can't really say the same about Moyes and Woodward.
 
I'm not saying Rooney should be booed or anything, and he's been excellent in a United shirt, but he keeps on dicking the fans about. Wouldn't surprise me if he doesn't get one of the biggest cheers.
 
He's definitely not been anywhere near his best this season. It could well be the Torres syndrome. If there is a good bid I would think United will take it, and re-invest than on a shiny new striker.
 
I like the Chelsea fan who lambasts Rooney for getting sent off on a "frequent basis". I assume all the football he watches is Sky Sports' The Premier League Years from 2004 to 2009. When was the last time he got sent off. Was it that Fulham game where he threw the ball too hard when a free kick was taken too quickly? That was 2009, wasn't it? What a bad bastard.

What a load of bollocks :lol:

Sounds like one of those stories he's just conveniently fabricated in his head, backed up by a complete absence of evidence.
 
Hunter Davis just on saying it's time for him to go and blaming SAF for maybe stifling his game and he should have left two years ago.
 
Haha at the Chelsea fans, well I hope if Wayne wants a move down South we kindly tweet him those comments, seeing as he's so heavily influenced by the silly website.
 
If we could get £50m for him which we actually reinvested with I'd grab the money and run.
Realistically it'd be 40m tops. Probably closer to 30m.
 
Those comments from the Chelsea page are those of supporters who don't have a clue about football. You sure it's not the Chelsea Pensioners page and they are all posting from a home?
 
Rooney to Chelsea seems like it might happen you know, cashley being best mates with wayne, Rooney still gets to stay in his home country..etc. With Mourinho taking the helm again at the bridge, wouldn't put it past Jose to make Rooney his first big signing.
 
Didn't the Shed End members react in a similar way when Torres was rumoured to be signing for Chelsea?

They deserve each other.

Safe to assume he meant "I'd"

This guy got rvp and a few signings before that right, correct? I'm getting giddy now, finally he fecks off.
 
With 2 years left on his contract, we surely have much more control over where he goes, unlike Arsenal with RVP who were hard pushed to sell RVP before the season started. We're not in a huge rush to sell, as there are 4 transfer windows before his contract actually expires. I do believe United will push for him to go abroad.

I don't care what he's done. He's been excellent for us and I love the guy. If he wants to leave then I don't want us to keep a player who is unhappy, so let him go. I just hope it's abroad, so I don't have to watch him bang them in for our rivals too often.

If he does push for a move, then a good portion of his book is a total lie. Is he going to recall it? Or is he going to keep selling it, even though he says wishing to leave United was the biggest regret of his life?

If he does go, hopefully it will be on our terms not his.

It seemed to be a reaction to Rooney changing his Occupation from Manchester United to @Nike UKAthlete, when in fact someone corrected him in saying it was done about a month ago along with Cleverley.

If he has changed his name to Nike Athlete, why would he do that if he may be going to Bayern or Chelsea (Both Adidas)? Is Ronaldo a "Nike Athlete" because of his boots, or Adidas? Food for thought perhaps.
