They wont need to by the time we've given him a £15M golden handshake, he'll take closer to a £100k a week and his PR will sell it that it's not about the money, Wayne just wants to play and earn his spot at the World cup with England.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran are here to talk about a frustrating 2 points dropped at Crystal Palace. They then discuss the regeneration of Old Trafford. Finally, Nik is joined by special guest Michael Statham from the Football Oranje podcast - who gives us a more in depth look at our EL opposition FC Twente, and then runs through the (many) Dutch connections currently at United.

You all disagree yet, between you, you have no constructive counter argument. Says it all.
Some of us just thought it wouldn't do any harm if his situation was wrapped up before the summer. One less thing to concern ourselves with.
No big deal in general though - he doesn't play that much.

Really hope we are not selling him to an English club in the summer, there is no way in hell we'll avoid paying about 2/3 of his wages then.

Here it is: some no mark on the internet doesn't get to tell other United supporters what makes them real supporters.
It's quite obvious - hence why there's no need to even type it.
Haven't read the thread, so sorry if I'm saying something that has been written.
But Rooney's decision to stay until the summer is because Rooney will get paid over 15 mil pund for doing that because of the loyalty bonus. Something I've just read.
So once again, Rooney's real face show the real him, if it's true. Rooney has only been here for the last 4 years because of that awful contract David Moyes rewarded Rooney's fake ass with.

Your idiotic post doesn't really deserve much time spent on it.
He's trolling.
Do you really think we will pay 15M quid to get rid of him?
You didn't make an argument to counter.You all disagree yet, between you, you have no constructive counter argument. Says it all.

We don't need a counter argument. He fact that you discredit others opinions by saying they "are not United fans" speak for itself.
He could be here another 3-4 years at his goal scoring rate.

Time for him to break another record now he’s confirmed he’s staying.

Agreed.
Heard Phil Nevilles comments on British Brainwashing corporations Radio 5 Live and agree... just can't see him going to China, and if he did the money would have to be mental in terms of wages to tempt him. He's English through and through, likes his family, where he is and the culture. Can anyone really see Wayne learning Chinese with all those symbols, he's have a better chance learning binary or C++. For sure he'd be the Carlos Tevez of the league, there for ages and still making cave man noises in interviews years later.
If he's staying, he's staying, you get behind him and the team but I think most will agree, its time for him to move on, he's past in now and has not taken care of himself along the way. Finally a manager has the balls to drop the golden boy who walked right back into the team after injury, played game after game, was undroppable, and when he does get benched he does what he always did, starts looking elsewhere or getting his agent on the case.
My thoughts for Rooney is, give up the smokes, lay of the booze and pizza, train your arse off like Ronaldo and be the best you possibly can be for your last few seasons, bang in the goals. He won't though will he, his lifes too easy. The only hope is that he hates this benching so bad as its the first time since like 16-18 its happened to him, gets angry and does something about it like said. Can't see it though. Besides, any man who cheats on his pregnant wife with some dodgy hooker slapper is lacking a bit of a spine.

OMG!!! A player on contract wants all the money he can get from the contract, when the club is actively pushing him out... Oh!! The horror!!!
If it is all true of course
Yes, we want to look like the good guys and move him on without drama.
It says your point is silly.You all disagree yet, between you, you have no constructive counter argument. Says it all.
It's like trying to counter the notion that the earth is flat.
The onus would be on the person making a ridiculous statement such as that to prove how its true. Not the other way round
He was never going to move now and certainly not to China. He wants to win something here this season.
Meh.
How bout we wanted him gone for dragging the club through mud while we were desperate to keep him?
How bout we could've got at least 25 million for him?
How bout dah?
I think he has certainly deserved a chance to wait here so that he can win something this season.
Obviously, if the steak is so good and indulgent and worth it, then it's not paying stupid money, is it? It's either worth it, or it's too expensive and not worth it.
Ultimately, people need to decide whether they care about how United spend their money. It makes zero sense moaning about Rooney getting paid and desperately wanting his wages freed up, and then telling people they shouldn't care about how the club spends its money because it's not theirs.
Yes, bro
I'll drive the Mongolian rally and drop him off for the cost of petrol at the other end if needs be!
Wanted him out 4+ years ago.
We were willing participants in giving him that contract.
Clubs do the same with players to cut costs. Why can't players do it to get what was promised to them?
So idiotic yet you can't even reason against it - what does that make you?
Make the point then if it's so obvious.
So what would be benefit* from losing Rooney in this window?
* we are (supposed to be) supporters not financial analysts so do not bother mentioning wages or transfer fees.
Tongue in cheek. Don't take it to heart and make a valid point.
Contract disputes are totally irrelevant now, if you are rational.
If Rooney wants to go China, we still get a big fee for him in the summer.
No, there are a lot of things in life that are great but overpriced and we treat ourselves to them, and while you know you are paying too much you are at least still getting a lot for your money, it's very different to just flushing money down the toilet, which is what paying Rooney equates to these days.
Cool. I'm happy for the point I made originally to remain - you are clearly irrational as you can't come up with a valid argument.
Ditto! Like we have said for a long long time, Fergie called it and laid him on a plate for Moyes.
I hate trolls, derailing the threads with just daft comments.
YAY ;(
Amen. When are you flying in to Manchester to start this drive then?
What I'm trying to say is that the amount of money by which you think we've overpaid, is essentially flushing money down the toilet.
For example, if we pay 100m for Griezmann and you think he's worth 80m tops, then it should follow that in your view we've flushed 20m down the toilet no matter how well he plays. You're getting top quality for the 80m, but in your mind the 20m will be considered a waste.
Sorry, it might be difficult to get what I'm saying but my point is that I don't think us paying Rooney is stopping us from conducting other transfer business, be it by wages or transfer fees.
Just waiting for Viva to join the road trip!
Seeing as your fellow Rooney-haters have failed, please do explain the benefit of losing him now without mentioning wages as we are supposed to be supporters not accountants.
Jose's played a blinder here.
At what point do the majority that want Rooney to leave, return to logical cynicism when regarding this situation?
This is probably the fourth time in the last two season this has happened. The coach tells everyone to "drop the subject and leave it alone we want him to stay", the tabloid media run a vague campaign saying Rooney will be leaving. These particular fans in their blind desperation get all giddy and start spreading it around that it is happening, the story pops and fizzles for a couple of days until somebody comes out and says that "it is a load of rubbish, he's not leaving".
They play you like a fiddle and write what you want to hear.
