Who`s going to pay £50 million quid for someone who only has 18 months left of his contract, which will be 12 months at the end of the season?
I can`t see Man U wanting to sell to another English club, and i doubt anyone could or would be willing to buy him at that price. So that leaves us with Barcelona and Real Madrid who both have plenty of options up front and i don`t think Rooney is regarded with the same fervour on the continent, not at that price anyway!
He could end up doing a Bosman and getting a huge signing on fee if he lets his contract run out, that`s what his agent will be telling him!
More than likely this is just a blip and will be forgotten about in a month or two, who remembered/talked about old slapper till all this recent stuff came out
As to the whole Liverpool saga, i personally can`t see it happening in the time frame being banded around if at all.
First off you have a new group of owners who are in this to make money. They have not done this as a hobby or as a trophy asset in which they will invest huge sums without getting a return.
The Liverpool squad at the moment is very ordinary imo and it will take a large influx of top quality players to get them back fighting for the title. Where is the money for these players going to come from and where are the players going to come from?
Players like Xavi Alonso and Macherano don`t grow on trees and getting replacements of a similar quality is going to cost a lot, then there is the stadium, is a new one going to be built or will Anfield be extended.
Maybe i`m wrong and the past glory days for Liverpool are just around the corner, these guys will plough a couple of hundred million into the club in the chance they might win the champions league and premiership with 3-5 years
They may have done it with the Boston Red Sox, they probably like baseball more than
soccer but that is imo a completely different kettle of fish!
