Manchester United forward Wayne Rooney is keen on leaving Old Trafford and the press believe that Chelsea are interested in signing him.
I’m especially sceptical when it comes to this particular story and despite the Red Devils’ party line saying that Rooney is ‘not for sale’ it’s more likely that they would rather move him on than reuniting him with David Moyes, who sued the 27-year-old for libel back in 2007 for comments he made about the Scot in his autobiography.
Whether or not you think he would fit well into the side, it would be difficult to argue that it is worth handing United a hefty transfer fee whilst matching Rooney’s reported wages of £250,000-a-week. We’re supposed to be reducing costs under UEFA’s financial fair play, not increasing them and if we’re going to pay the big bucks then go for players on the incline of their careers like Radamel Falcao or Robert Lewandowski.
If it was up to me then I would try for Lewandowski, who is keen on Bayern Munich, but Dortmund would rather sell him abroad than to a league rival and are interested in Kevin De Bruyne. I don’t want to see the young Belgian leave the club on a permanent deal but if that’s what he wants and they’ve turned his head then there isn’t a lot we can do, so we may as well exploit the situation to advantage.
Anyway, I just want to know what your thoughts are on the links to Manchester United’s Wayne Rooney, good idea or bad idea?
Great deal if it happens, Football wise can comfortably score 20 goals a season and get a few assists. Besides he will be a huge factor in developing the Chelsea “brand”
What Chelsea brand? The one of Russian crooks?
Any avilable old ladies in Fulham Rd?
Twat!
Hopefully this doesn’t happen, the last thing we need is to sign another striker who is past his best.
yes id like to bring in some great english players to chelsea but rooney hasnt played the same since everton id have falcao or hernandez anyday
or i would prefer bringing back lukaku as the new drogba and we could save money and bring in a new defender to push luiz up to holding mid
Rooney 2 chelsea is a good deal. He is 1 of the best n strongest fowards. Dis is wat chelsea lack.Power! As a chelsea fan,i say YES
Not ever! Rooney is not a Chelsea player. He hasn’t played well in a year. He is on the decline. Waste of money, will hurt Chelsea. Lewandowsky, Lukaku, Torres. Sell Ba, Moses. Get a good centre back to compliment Ivanovich. Terry and Cahill are not good enough. Maybe get Xabi Alonso. So, Lewandowsky, world class centre back, one more good mid-fielder. We will be in top shape. Rooney???? NEVER
Falcao/*lewandowski cf,ronaldo/rooney/*hulk mf,shaw/*fabio coentrao ld * my chose
Sam is rather a racist. Sell Ba, my foot. Wayne top Chelsea no ways
Moses may go but not Ba while I am still alive he is better than your zorro Torres. Terry is done at Stamford Bridge, we need new centre back and a striker like Lewandowski.
With Rooney, Falcao, Andre Shurrle & Felaini, plus our super squad, I am more than sure that we will around 5 trophies per season. Chelsea come up and sign Rooney !
