Rooneys new deal worth £65 million pound in wages at Man U

[AlCapone 7,678]

Just let that figure sink in! £65 million in wages!

[King_gazza 1,065]

I'd have told him to fuck off he only got a new deal last season did he not?

Greeting faced wee cunt that he is. Probably needs more money for his granny prostitutes.

[trueblue68 2,497]

They would be better selling him to Chelsea. He seems to be in not interested mode again.

[BRITNEY IS NOT FEELING IT 8,293]

manure are that bad this season ,this is the sort of nonsense they will do ,to keep on side with their fans

[FernandoR20 2,133]

Overrated cunt anaw

[better than all the rest 153]

The granny's will be quids in now with that deal.

[Jimbo. 952]

They're in a difficult position.

Sell him, obviously for less now than the £25m they rejected from Chelsea in the summer, and they'll lose one of their very few quality players, and have to spend £40M+ to replace him. With a player who'll want £150k+pw anyway.

Don't sell him, and don't improve his contract, and he can sign a pre-contract with another club in 12 months times.

Tie him up in a new contract tho, and it's one less player to source. And as he's already on £250kpw it's only going to effect their bottom line to the tune of £50kpw, albeit for an extra 2years. That also then gives them the option to sell him, if they chose to, on terms that suit them (ie, for a fee!)

It's their only viable option IMO.

[Escobar 13,676]

Fucking shite aswell.

Overrated.

Can be overrated but he's very far from shite...

[chris182 6,402]

Not worth it

[neilstonloyal 186]

Wayne rooney is a quality player

[corkinator 611]

hes vey, very overrated, hard worker though.

[AlCapone 7,678]

Not worth it

Not at all, with this deal along with Mata and a couple of other good signings you have to say Man U as a club are back. Think of the big picture, Man U will now get into the top 4

[bawsburst 1,381]

How much further will the once people's game detach itself from reality before it kills the golden goose .... The fans and in turn itself.

[TheBluebells 6,898]

He really knows how to play on Man Utd's desperation to keep him.

[Zappa6995 3,699]

The world has gone mad.

65 million for a better than average injury prone mutant.

I would like to say that it's not my money but indirectly it is via my SKY subscription.

The only saving grace is the money the government may get out of him.

100% agree, been wondering how they would handle this one. The biggest risk is he has a tendency to put on the pound and the time it takes him to get up to speed after injuries. He's the type of player I can see who loses his pace quickly in a short time. Could be a lot of money for someone who suddenly stops delivering.

I just think football in general is going crazy

He really, reall does. Got a new found respect for him now.

[The Godfather 73,851]

300k

Imagine paying that to someone like Rooney knowing guys like Messi are on less

[TheBluebells 6,898]

Fair play to the guy, if they're daft enough then why the fuck not?

[thehost 11,061]

if he hadn't been playing this season I reckon they would be sitting 8 points behind Southampton in the middle of the relegation 10

[StewGer 606]

I knew fitba was broken when I found out O'Shea was on 40 grand a week in his time at Utd, we had better defenders than him at that time and he was on the same as two of our top stars. It's getting sick and I hope the whole thing implodes to be honest.

[King_gazza 1,065]

Football really has gone mental.

Won't be long till we have a player on 400/500k a week

Ibrahimovic is on £500k per week at paris i think.
