I think Arsenal should worry the most... their two teams are fighting to avoid relegation. The others have fairly easy/safe teams.

He's the 4th top scorer of all time for the most succesful English club. If he stays until his 30s not only does he break the record, but he smashes it. Even If he retires today his name goes down next to Best,Charlton,Law. If that isn't meeting potential them he must of been a possible GOAT.

I wouldn't put Rooney in the Best, Charlton & Law category at all. Looking from the outside, he's a worse player now than when he broke through, but I don't see his all round play week in week out, so maybe he is a much better player and I don't see it. When he broke on to the scene, he looked as though he could be what Messi and Ronaldo have turned into. He was taking teams on, powering through them and finishing.

I'll accept your judgment on his abilities, but I'd be interested to know what older united fans who actually saw best and Charlton play, say about where he fits in your GOAT list.

Of course he isn't better than them or a bigger legend, but in terms of goal scoring there is no option but to put him there. That's what i meant. And considering he was never considered that prolific a scorer it speaks volumes.

Ahh - OK. Fair do's.

I'm genuinely not having a go, but if you want to bring media reports into it then read the media reports from the last few days stating what his contract is.

Why would the media report he's getting £150k a week, rising to £250k a week, and then throughout the years since he signed that contract report he's on £250k a week?

Easy answer, sensationalism.

It's just like with the 'Rooney claimed United lacked ambition', he never said that. In the media it's all about sensationalism.
I remember a few years back The Sun had an Evra story. I think he claimed Arsenal were no longer a big team or something. Anywho, the headline was basically he'd criticised a team. I then read the article, said team weren't even mentioned.

If Rooney was on £250k a week, why did we refuse to offer Eden Hazard £170k then? There would be no reason as to why we didn't match Chelsea's wage offer.

At least we can agree in terms of the joke decision of David Moyes. Liverpool fans nationwide must still be laughing.

Ryan57 · 09-05-2013, 09:29 AM

Aston Villa captain Stiliyan Petrov, who has been suffering from acute leukaemia, has announced his retirement from football.

What a shame.

Hazard through the year, meaning last season. Laughable.

That's why I said he flirted with everyone last season. Don't think it actually came down to united refusing to meet his demands. But who really knows?

I really think it was cash with the way he was.

Anywho, The Guardian are doing a live blog for who'll be named the next United boss. No need for a blog, going to be 'effin Moyes.

Spurs are definitely worrying the most, they did this last season and flopped a massive lead against of us and we finished above them. Stoke are mathematically still fighting for survival and on their day a hard team to beat at home so it wont be easy for Spurs.. Chelsea are playing against Everton in Moyes possible last game as their manager, they'll be going all out for the win. I think for us Wigan will be quite easy, few days after their FA cup final which if they lose they'll have a classic hangover and wont turn up for the game, our worry is Newcastle.

Doesn't seem so. Just googling for quotes now and, whilst I haven't googled them all, I'm seeing the quotes on the net. The Manchester and Chelsea one we already knew. Have looked up the Vermaelen one and he said that. Also the Spurs one.

Edit: And the Milan and Inter one. He's this kind of tw@t lol, so I suspect he did say all that.

The English Eden Hazard.

sad news about Petrov.. will be an emotional game on Saturday for the Villa

King Gizzard · 09-05-2013, 11:44 AM

was coming really..no chance he'd have ever played again..on medication now for 2 years

Don't even know why Liverpool fans are so happy. Not like Rodgers came to Liverpool as Barcelona manager. Let's hope we send you down to 8th as we take 7th

bbfan1991 · 09-05-2013, 02:30 PM

United still have not confirmed anything, that PR fail will end up in some people being told off

.

He was not who I wanted, but now it is almost confirmed I can put that to one side and back him when United finally make a statement!

We were never able shop in the same places you could, yet I think you've made a really poor appointment. I think Moyes has been completely overrated for a few years, and I hope he's your Souness.

I don't expect much to be different next season, but the season after that we'll start to see what he's made of.

Really? I think if Jose returns then we'll really see what Moyes is made of. Jose is, after all, the only manager ever to get to Fergie.
That and, whilst it's a good squad, it needs some TLC.

I think autopilot will get them through for a season, but that's when the major rebuild will need to be done. The good thing from my POV, is that whiskey nose was given 7 years, so he will be calling for patience as you trickle down the league.

I'm going to be so ******ing gutted if he turns out to be great.

Think it depends on who he signs in central midfield, if anyone. If Jose brings Falcao with him then the title race is basically over.

Helps us out in 2 ways. Gives your lot a manager that is unproven at this level, and ****s Everton up a bit aswell. A great couple of days.
