It could very well be that he is simply past it. If he dont regain form i think you are stuck with him anyway, no one wants to take him with the wages he is on. Its basically the same scenario as we had with Kaka.

I'd basically just give him away at this point. Just someone take him, we'll continue to pay him.

When will LVG play Fellaini or Herrera over him I don't know, and the media do not even report how bad he has been. Last year Falcao, Di Maria were slaughtered for performances better than him and Ozil is under constant pressure from the press and he plays a lot better than him.

SAF was correct, he knew exactly when the time was right to move a player on. Moyesey gave him a fat new contract.

Well, except in the cases of Giggs. He kept on playing a 40 year old winger in central midfield, instead of giving chances to one of the more promising midfielders around. I guess it also count for Scholes.

Fergie was old school, Pogba needed to earn his chance. He was bang average for the reserves that year and was being out-performed by Ravel Morrison at the time. Let's not forget that Pogba also left for more money.

Anyway it's different because Giggs and Scholes were United icons and could still contribute very well on a reduced scale. Rooney simply looks like a shell of his former self.

There are rumours that there is interest in him from the Chinese league, United must be over the moon right now. I bet they'd even consider giving him away for free.

Playing like a donkey so he can get his move back to Everton and lead us to the title :rockon:

So you've heard those whispers as well !?

I heard that ManU had discreetly offered Rooney to Everton in exchange for Barkley AND Lukaku !!??

Seems a ridiculous trade but it was being discussed on the radio a couple of nights ago for a out 25 minutes ...

It wouldn't surprise me after the offer they made for Baines and Fellaini.

I would take Rooney for free but with his wages I don't think we could also pay a transfer fee - and that's if he took a cut.

All he is right now is a problem for Utd - 300K a week and he has to play because he's the Captain.
