Going to need to define "so much better"......
Better player? He is definitely not. More realistic target though, further down the process line, not as much of a cunt etc....
Rooney is an unrealistic waste of time. Great player but will never be an Arsenal player
You look like you're getting outmuscled like a bitch in that photo. It reminds me of Diaby brushing Allen and Sahin aside
Laters, knobends
He turned me into pulp.
With a Liverpool shirt underneath?

That is true but he is a great young player who plays in a position that ManUnited need.
And just because he sits on the bench(played 101 games, started 64) doesn't mean he isn't good. Masch, Cesc, Villa etc sit on the bench too.
Paulinho impressive capture for Spurs.
Still think David Villa's on the wrong side of 30 for the wages he'd demand.
Maybe if they can get Adebayor off the books...
Now THAT would be impressive. Still got a couple of years on his contract, hasn't he? And City are no longer paying a good chunk of his wage, right? He's probably not that inclined to move on...

Dembele over Sandro, for me.

Bad vs terrible lol
But Rooney has PL experience and goals, Higuain had it easier since most teams from La Liga have shit defenders.
I'll take Rooney over Higuan anyday.
It'd be good to do one over United after the RVP affair, if nothing else.
Before we pass them in the league.
lol in my excitement I only put 10 players in the team
With Holtby, Gylfi and Carroll as well our midfield will be well stocked. That's assuming Huddlestone, Parker and Livermore are all sold.
I have some reservations about Villa but if AVB thinks we need him then I trust his decision. Levy won't go mad, he will have a precisely structured wage package. Personally I would prefer to keep both Ade and Defoe, there will be plenty of games to go around and I still think Ade can be our main striker. If he plays like he did in the last 6 weeks of the season I can see a front 3 of Bale, Ade and Villa being quite devastating. With Lennon to come from the bench, not many defenses could handle that. We need options and we need at least 3 strikers. Selling either of the two we have means we need to buy two, which isn't going to happen.

If Rooney leaves it will only be because we wanted him gone.
Arsenal are dropping out of the top 4 next season too.
Big call. For who?

You said we were dropping out last season as well. You're full of shit.

New Coen Bros film looks good.
Miller's Crossing is one of the best gangster films ever.

For Baleinho FC of course.
In the derby Paulinho's first act will be to put an end to Arteta (pen.) once and for all by snapping his legs clean off
I kid
Spurs.
Signing Paulinho strengthens their already strong midfield.
Add a decent striker and they're in the perfect position to get that fourth spot.

Fiorentina have reached an agreement with Bayern Munich for Mario Gomez. 18M fee + bonuses. 5M in wages + bonuses for the player. (SKY)
Great news.
Amazing.
Gold Tie should be embarrassed. We have the highest revenues in Italy, and yet smaller clubs like Napoli, Fiorentina, and Juve have much more money to spend on the market. Something has gone wrong with the way Milan is run.
That was a prelude.
Arsenal are being left behind by the big three and Spurs are getting stronger while you're fannying around with Ligue 2 babies and Mario Gomez lite.

That may be but shouldn't we wait until we know exactly what all our squads will be?

Can't... breathe...
Lol . You should wait until the window is over before such talk.
Spurs will choke like rats. It's their nature, forever behind us, it's that Arsene Wenger factor.
In the taxi with Pellegrini Txiki was doing business.
Shit. I'm pumped.
.... Thats the pic you chose/is available??
Haha, it's a screen cap from the video I posted. You couldn't really see him properly, you can here though
Someone magnify that iPhone screen. I think it either says 'Thiago's Dad' or 'Rooney'.

"Hi there, will you accept £55 million for your best player?"
"I don't know who just whichever one is your best one"
"You won't?"
"Ok..."
*click*
pellegrini is a stylish motherfucker
Gylfi is going to get plenty. He can play across the attacking 3 in a 4231 or as one of the CMs in a 433, there will be a lot of games to go around. He stepped up his game in the second half of the season and I see no reason we should get rid. If you want to make it at a top club you have to be ready to fight for your place, he showed some balls last season and I don't think he will want to leave. The clubs that would be interested in him would all be a massive downgrade (he almost joined Reading in January FFS).
He can play across the front three, but I don't think he's very effective on either side. Or, to put it better, I think Spurs have far more effective players in those positions. And then centrally it's a nightmare for him. It's not just that there are players to compete with, it's that in every window that passes there are more players who can fill that position.
Pellegrini's got too much swag. Definitely speaks swaghilli.

I can't wait for him to join the squad. After watching him more lately, I'm more confident that he will fit in well.

Outmuscle him! You think Gerrard or Suso would just let a player get to the ball that easily? Come on man.

Haha yeah he never stood a chance of sticking around. He's a club legend, but he's still going to go play for newly promoted Hellas Verona. Don't know how I feel about that because, on the one hand, he's going to get as much playing time as he wants so long as he's healthy, on the other hand this is probably his last season and I don't want to see him rot in a relegation team.
Big teams don't need to worry about selling Robinho before buying somebody for less than a song. If you don't buy Honda, you may as well start supporting Inter.
