You're doing two things. Putting too much stock in the "he's horribly unfit and unprofessional" story. And ruining my far more appealing and Hollywood friendly take on events. Wet blanket. Which is to say - yeah, by all means, maybe you're right.

That's fair enough but I can't understand letting it become public when say there hasn't really been huge interest that we're aware off at least. The club have been quite public about rejecting Chelsea's bids, so I'd imagine they'd do the same for a foreign team but there doesn't seem to have been those bids. So I don't see what we've gained from it being public. Had it been a case of we knew we had some big transfers lined up such that we could say, we don't need Rooney, so he can either think about things and pull his finger out if he wants to stay but at the same time we could stay strong and say we won't let him go cheap. At the moment it feels like increasingly we will need him over the season.

Jesus christ.
The head of Chelsea's PR Neil Ashton strikes again.
Last night it was Rooney asked to train with reserves because he wanted to become fit for England's match and therefore get strict training. Now he's apparently crushed by Moyes.
Wahhhhhh
Edits and QC by RAWK.
God bless England. I'm welling up here.
fecks sake.
fecks sake.
Rooney at the moment.
From F365:
Neil Ashton in Friday morning's Daily Mail: 'After training with Manchester United's reserves at Carrington at his own request so he could improve his fitness...'
Neil Ashton on the Daily Mail website at 11am on Friday: 'Wayne Rooney trained with Manchester United's kids on Friday morning for the second day in a row as the club try to crush his spirit after his demand to leave.'
I think the article is pretty accurate in presenting the situation.
Mourinho on his way to the bank, to up the bid to 30m.
What a fecking ludicrous piece of crap article
Rooney has apparently made up his mind to go to Chelsea and his camp have informed Arsenal about that according to ESPN.
Problem: Wayne Rooney
Solution: Staight swap for Juan Mata
If Jose doesn't take that deal, then we consign WR to a streaming shower of golden, warm piss by each player after every training session.

he was literally the piggy in the middle.The only worthwhile thing from that article is that Will Keane is back in training.
Neil Ashton should be embarrassed about his coverage of the Rooney issue. He's clearly being briefed by Chelsea and is writing stories to curry favour with them. What ever happened to just reporting the actual news that happened, rather than being more P.R. man than journalist?
He works for the Mail, reporting the actual news has never been their way of doing things.
.....
I wonder if he's moved into that caravan yet
I have heard from a very reliable source of mine who does some work at Chelsea TV that Ashton once hid in a bin at Stamford Bridge to get a story. I'm a bit sketchy on the details so I'll text him and find out exactly what happened.
Must've been the Torres transfer story.
Ashley Cole probably thought he was work experience and started chasing him with his spud gun (possibly a euphemism).
More from Ashton:
I dunno whats wrong with it. I love such "articles". Everytime I get fed up by the for the most part shitty sports "journalism" in the German press, I take a look at the British media and tell myself: "Well, it actually could be worse." So thank you Dailymail for making tolerating the media in my country a little bit easier.
Seriously, it is unbelievable how someone is payed actual money for something like that.
I did wonder if you were parodying Ashton when i first read this, i should never have doubted it but it really is something else.
WTF is going on here?
Talk about melodrama, we've moved from angry and confused to angry and irritated apparently, and his advocates are willing to confirm that a verbal transfer request was made.
Ready to tough it out eh, how about he did that from the beginning of last season when the club met the ambition eh allegedly believed in?
If that article is implying that 30m will be Chelsea's next bid then United can expect no joy on that front any time soon

Surely that's a joke. That's taken from Rudolph the red noses reindeer.
A poignant article, poor Wayne.
You bastards!
You bastards!
My favourite thing about that article is how it's clear he thinks he's being all poetic with his short, dramatic sentences when in reality he's just coming across like an absolute pillock.
It would be so typical of Rooney's career if him throwing the toys out of the pram and generally being unprofessional with his fitness means he won't be in peak form for the World Cup next year..
You bunch of meanies. Would not even let him play in Rio's testimonial.
More from Ashton;
The other birds in so many words said "Quack", get out of town.

It's a bit cnutish to those lads he's training with.
