Imagine man united paying a fat 33 year old 300k a week ffs
That's what's gonna happen in 4 years
Best hope there is that Moyes signs some world class players and rooney is back in his best position one which we like him in and that is sideman.
Rooney isn't the best #9, #10 or winger in the squad. Just because he can 'do a job' in those positions it doesn't mean we should start him ahead of a player who is naturally better in one of those positions because it has a negative effect on the balance of the team.
He's the best forward period.
Do you seriously consider Zaha a better option for the team?
The post you quoted says "it doesn't mean we should start him ahead of a player who is naturally better in one of those positions" so if it came down to picking a right winger and the choice was between Rooney and Zaha I would pick the winger, Zaha.
I was more referrring to your original post. I don't understand how you can call players like Powell and Kagawa great attacking options. They've done nothing
Yes Gattsu, Rooney is a better player than Van Persie
All that is very true, same Arguement could be made for Adnan, "he's the new poster boy"
However hypothetically speaking when players abroad think of Manchester United, the first name they think of is Wayne Rooney. Fans likewise. Media likewise.
He's more valuable symbolicly than he is on the pitch.
Bare this in mind, despite RVP coming in and becoming first choice forward, Carrick being the new cult hero and Kagawa being the far east's version of Beckham. This summer the top 3 shirt sales were RVP, Kagawa and Rooney with Rooney selling more than the other 2. Despite the added fact that it was pretty unclear whether or not he'd be staying.
It would take a lot of money to make selling Roobey make sense financially and status wise.
Before anyone negs this for thinking its a pro Rooney post I'll reiterate I don't like the man and he and his standing within the team, the game and accross Europe embodies a lot of what I despise about the game.
Also when we sold arguably the best player in the world we replaced him with 2 misfits and a one footed one trick wonder. By that reckoning if we sold Rooney we'd probably send scouts to non-league games.
You can't understand why Rooney is more popular than RVP and Kagawa?
Carrick was a cult hero? LOL
I didn't say anything about not understanding it.
Carrick was THE OVERWHELMING crowd favourite last season. There is no question about that.

You tried to replace him with Hazard though….
Was in for Hazard last season. Sold Ronaldo in 2009. Leave it out mate.
If I showed my mate some of the Rooney comments in here.
Rooney is untouchable, I'm sorry guys.
This is what I'm on about,
Sometimes I think some people in hear only talk about football in here.
Go out into the big world and canvas oppinion people. Rooney is rated in that just below works class bracket by most people,
Was on a tram going to Gigg Lane earlier in the season and listened to two fans on the way to OT having a debate about Rooney, both of them were making valid points but had to completely differerent opinions. Most United fans still rate him as the best player if imagine, if we played 9/10 of the top European teams tomorrow he's be seen as the biggest threat.....
He's the player the sponsors want to attach his face to their product, he's the symbol that United can still attract and keep the best players in the world.
Somebody once quoted. (Can't remember who but I can imagine Clough or Shankly saying it) "People who think football is only about football know nothing about football"
