Nice to know the tradition of the manager having a blazing 'this club ain't big enough for the both of us' tussle with one of the best players every so often has continued.
the mirror says that chelsea offered 10m + mata or luiz.

He was given a choice. Knuckle down and apply himself. Seems he's chosen not to do that because he has nothing to prove. Should Rooney go to Chelsea he could become an even bigger hate figure than Tevez. Lets face it the man isn't going to be classy in this whole affair and certainly wouldn't be when we play against him.Has his PR team been that awful in this saga? I think United have backed him into a real corner here and given him no real choice, his two public statements were both reactions to United led attempts at public discourse.
I think in the context of his stay at United this saga is him being a 'bellend' and another in a long line of reasons that most of us don't care if we see the back of him, but as an isolated incident I find it hard to accuse him of too much wrong doing.

They're fecking bonkers to offer Mata. No way we're selling Rooney to Chelsea though, regardless of the offer.
If it does come out they've bidded £10 mil and Mata, and we've rejected it, I shall be absolutely fuming. But it's bullshit, they've probably bid £20-25 mil for an opening offer.

That's retarded. I'd take it if it meant Mata came though, without question.
Well we'd be getting arguably the second best player in the league, for a great player who's form is questionable. I'd give Rooney and 10m for Mata, never mind the 20m swing.If we're getting one of the best players in the league for one of the best players in the league, i'd say thats a deal to suit both parties.
However, again, it's a totally bollocks story.
Having Mata and Luiz in the same price band destroyed any credibility the article might have had.
They've probably offered 10m and Job Obi Mikel...
This is an article from James Ducker at the Times. Don't know if it's been posted yet.
I think there's lots of stuff we don't know so personally it's wiser to plead ignorance. People who say sell him obviously don't appreciate his 9 years here. Could he have tried harder? He used to be one of the hardest workers. Maybe not in training but on the pitch. If we sell him, it will be a sad day. Personally, I'd rather back our player until such a time we sell him. He's not out the door. We do have the ability, just to ignore the press/media. Let's face it, we know their agenda. feck them and what will be will be.
Rooneys a dickhead when it's come to money. That is a fact. However, people writing him off are acting like children and if he don't leave with be singing a different tune if he has an injury free season next season.
