Rooney Update

Rooney is staying. Talks have taken place between Moyes, Rooney and Paul Stretford regarding his future.

The uncertainty came when Fergie claimed he had handed in a transfer request which has been denied. It seems Moyes understands that it should not have gone public, however it did.

Moyes has confirmed that he has every intention to use Rooney as a central striker and is willing to play RVP, Welbz and Roo as a front three (at times)

Last night the players (and wives) attended a team bonding meal, and the atmosphere was great (Roo attended with Coleen).

Saturday was a pivotal day in teh saga as rooney had expected to be given grief by the travelling support however was delighted to get an ovation.

Please let this be an end to all Rooney goes and Rooney stays talk.

All though I don't believe a word your saying i'm praying that this is true.

Thanks but I will wait for an official club statement from both the manager and the player. He certainly didn't look happy at the despite the fans reaction and support. MrE

Loved the thread (if proven to be true), only time will tell. No offence meant. Thanks Anyway.

If I was Rooney I would have been awaiting a fans backlash at the game. It didn't happen. However he did himself no favours by staying aloof from the goal celebrations.
As for Team bonding meals etc, that's ok but he must been seen to be a team player again.

Still believe that we WILL sell, but WHEN is the main question and to whom.

Wait for the SUN Headline of "CAN GO ROO" if he leaves.

How do you no that?

But it's true Rooney attended with Coleen for the player's bonding meal. This hardly means Rooney won't leave. he's at a war with United management and not the players or moyes.

However he might stay depending on the response he gets from home fans against Chelsea

Well its true about the players bonding session so can't see why this new isn't true. Rooney is loved by the United fans as long as he is happy to stay playing for us. let's hope this is true and let's carry on winning things Wayne :)

The only person he was at war with was Fergie due to the fact he decided not to play him in the big important games.
Rooney is football through and through, all he wants to do is play and play every game.
To be dumped as a sub against Real would of hurt his pride and I for one did not agree with Fergies decision.
It was like Fergie was trying to provoke a reaction from him towards the end of the season by leaving him out, maybe it was Fergies leaving present to rooney for the transfer request two seasons ago, who knows.
I rather think Fergie stitched him up big time at the last game of the season where he blurted out that "Rooney has asked for a transfer".
With Fergie doing that it has also made David Moyes job twice as hard, as if he didn't have enough to deal with on top of the Rooney saga.

Chelsea are trying their best to unsettle Wayne, yet refuse to offer his market price. Rumour in the press today is that Jose is going to offer a third bid - 27 or 28 million depending on which paper or site you choose. I don't think United should sell him to Chelsea, except if they offer us Mata. Everyone says"our 28 million bid for Fellaini and Baines was stupidly low"

I hope you are correct, Rooney was hung out to dry by Fergie.

I think it was a parting shot in relation to 2010 and Rooney asking to go.

Rooney is played all over the place and never complains, he is class despite what people write on here.

Ask yourself this and answer honestly, would you like to see him in a Chelsea shirt? Whoever we get it should not mean the end of Rooney as a red.

Rooney is leaving end of.

Saf was right to not play rooney against real, it was a tactical decision and welbeck played a blinder! we lost because madrid reacted/ subbed better after the sending off, modric coming on changed everything for madrid.
not only do I think utd will sell rooney but I think it is the right choice, we would be a far more fluent team without him, kagawa would take his spot so any monies should go into getting a winger come forward for the left, willian would have been good but I suppose a certain mr ronaldo would also do lol
