Support NeoGAF

[Clegg]

I think most of those people would simply prefer someone else to win this year, although there is some weird Vettel hate at F1 GAF.

I think that's down to Omiee's obnoxiousness.

 

[kharma45]

I think that's down to Omiee's obnoxiousness.

Pretty much. He's such a bell end at times over his love for Seb.

 

[Messi]

I think that's down to Omiee's obnoxiousness.

I for one am SHOCKED

 

[Frank the Great]

Chelsea join El Shaarawy race

 

[Linius]

the eredivisie kicks off a week before the bundesliga.

My body is ready

 

[Messi]

Chelsea join El Shaarawy race

There is a race for ElSha? Why is he for sale, he is milans starlet no?

 

[Salvadora]

Hold on to your boots.

 

[Frank the Great]

Yeah but rumour is that Berlucunt needs to raise funds for a string of Bunga Bunga parties he has planned for before he goes to prison. Cocaine and hookers are expensive.

noooo i don't want the ogre

What is there to like?
Clearly a talented driver but does nothing otherwise to endear himself to fans of the sport.

 

[Freewheelin']

Danish league starts in 3 weeks, get ready

No Cornelius though

 

[Vivalaraza]

Hold on to your boots.

He wants to go to Chelsea.

 

[Clegg]

Arsenal would be my preferred English club for Rooney to go to.

They're far enough behind us that they wouldn't be a threat even with Rooney. I'd rather we didn't sell to a premier league team though. And I don't think we will either.

 

[Messi]

Hold on to your boots.

Thats alot of money

 

[Linius]

Hold on to your boots.

Whoa what

This rumour is completely new right?

 

[Salvadora]

He wants to go to Chelsea.

We don't know what he wants.

Whoa what

This rumour is completely new right?

Come on, Linius.

 

[GorillaJu]

Thats alot of money

That's like only 20m isn't it?

 

[Linius]

We don't know what he wants.

Come on, Linius.

I know a Rooney move to somewhere is most likely, but as far as I know Arsenal targeted Higuain as their new striker.

I don't narrowly follow EPL rumours

 

[Suen]

Milan would have to be fucking nuts to sell Shawarma. If it happens I hope they won't even make it through the CL qualifications.

 

[kharma45]

That's like only 20m isn't it?

Just under £22m or so.

 

[Vivalaraza]

We don't know what he wants.

Andy Mitten is saying he wants Chelsea - got a decent record with United related stuff. Was also saying Arsenal would make that bid a couple of days ago.

Makes sense too really, Chelsea would be a preferred destination for him on almost all counts. Better money, better team. Everything else is level...same city, would defo start for both.

 

[bjaelke]

Fox....sports?

 

[K1LLER7]

If selling Rooney to Chelsea means we can get Ronaldo, them sell him.

However I doubt Chelsea want him. They'll buy Cavani.

It's part of our title push.

A Chelsea offer may never materialise.

 

[Vivalaraza]

I still think we will refuse to sell to either - although it could get interesting if Rooney starts to make life difficult.

Would be surprised if he attempts to push through a move to Arsenal though. Can't imagine they'd pay him anything close to what he wants (in addition to him taking a knock on the playing side of things).

 

[Yurt]

I don't think he'll take a pay-cut to join Arsenal.

 

[Clegg]

Rooney would only go to a premier league club that can realistically challenge for major honours and can offer big money.

That leaves only City and Chelsea as possible destinations. And we're not selling to either of them.

 

[kharma45]

I'd only sell him to an English club if they offered silly money like £40m from him.

 

[Batigol]

Arbeloa is gonna get eviscerated by Neymar later :lol

I still can't fathom how he gets in their squad, let alone first team. Some kind of sorcery

 

[Vivalaraza]

I'd only sell him to an English club if they offered silly money like £40m from him.

Even then I wouldn't.

Although I appreciate there may come a time where we have to. But the idea of selling him to a rival is plain wrong. If I knew that £40m would go straight into the transfer kitty perhaps I'd feel better about it but I doubt that would happen.

 

[Salvadora]

It's a strange new world with Moyes at the helm.

Anything can happen.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

£22 million is, by all reasonable accounts, a derisory offer.

 

[kharma45]

Even then I wouldn't.

Selling him to a rival is wrong as he can still be a good player, and it weakens us and strengthens someone else. The £40m I was hypothesising would be used for transfers, and we could get one top or two good players for that.

Still, I hope he goes to somewhere like PSG or Monaco. Attractive places to live and they're clubs with big money.

 

[deGod]

Specific women. Kat dennings. Christina hendricks. Other than that though... No

Edit: when I was way fatter yes. Its all I seeked

That bird you pulled outside your house when me and rich drove by was far from big

 

[Arnie]

£22 million is, by all reasonable accounts, a derisory offer.

It really isn't.

 

[Vivalaraza]

It really isn't.

If Chelsea had bid £22m for Torres when they were in for him would you consider it reasonable?

 

[Messi]

That's like only 20m isn't it?

I thought it was euros

 

[Wes]

Just read the Distin story on The Sun's website. for anyone who missed it:

FOOTBALL star Sylvain Distin had a three-year fling with a blonde after telling her he was a MILKMAN.

The Everton love cheat later claimed he was a professional TENNIS PLAYER and a CYCLIST.

When trusting Katie Hulne saw a snap of the £45,000-a-week French defender in his kit he said it was his twin.

Absolutely hilarious.

 

[Messi]

That bird you pulled outside your house when me and rich drove by was far from big

My shining moment. In a sea of shit

 

[kharma45]

It really isn't.

Well if Suarez is worth £50m+ to you it is. He's not on top of his game but he's worth at least £25m at very worst, probably closer to £30m.

 

[Batigol]

Rooney's out of shape and considerably slower then he once was. 22 million is decent

 

[kharma45]

Rooney's out of shape and considerably slower then he once was. 22 million is decent

He's 27, not too late to get back into good fitness if he applies himself.

 

[Walshy]

£22 million is, by all reasonable accounts, a derisory offer.

Far from it. He's worth around the 30 million mark.

 

[Vivalaraza]

His worth as a player is near enough to £25m-£30m.

His worth when it comes to selling him to a rival team in the same league is a totally different thing.

 

[Salvadora]

Rooney wants to leave which lowers his value.

 

[Arnie]

If Chelsea had bid £22m for Torres when they were in for him would you consider it reasonable?

The two aren't close to being comparable.

Rooney isn't your main striker, has been out of form for longer than a few months, has well publicised fitness issues, and as a club you aren't desperate to keep him. The majority of your fanbase have been goading clubs to bid for him; Liverpool feared bids for Torres, and his price reflected our reluctance to deal.

£22 million is a fair opening bid for Rooney, and I think if he went for £25 million you'd be extremely happy.

Well if Suarez is worth £50m+ to you it is. He's not on top of his game but he's worth at least £25m at very worst, probably closer to £30m.

This makes no sense at all.

If Suarez is worth £50 million to Liverpool then an initial bid of £22 million for a £25 million player is derisory?

Good place to start negotiations, stop moaning, nobody's coming in with a £27 million straight away.

If you think that you're fooling yourself.

Think you're wrong here.

Don't think there's a chance we sell him to either Arsenal or Chelsea for £25m.

 

[KidA Seven]

Let's just swap him for Mata.

 

[D_prOdigy]

Rooney wants to leave which lowers his value.

We're not Arsenal-levels inclined to sell to rivals though.
