MERGED: Rooney signs new contract!

Exclusive - Macari: 'United insider told me Rooney leaving for money'
Manchester United legend Lou Macari has revealed to talkSPORT a trusted Old Trafford insider told him Wayne Rooney's reasons for wanting to leave: Money.
While pundits have postulated on why Rooney has refused to sign a new contract, Macari believes his reasons are less than honourable.
And he expects Rooney to never don the red of United again.

Exclusive - Macari: 'United insider told me Rooney leaving for money' | talkSPORT
 
"I want to leave Utd, no assurances from Gill about future squad"

"I owe SAF, I wish he can go on forever because he is a one-off and a genius"
 
Of course they'll use the 'Club not attracting players' card. They know it's the ones that may get the fans on their side. Not buying it, sorry Wayne.
 
what sort of cúnt releases a statement two hours before his club has a Champinos League tie. This is despicable.

And undoubtedly a lying attempt to keep fans and media onside.

so angry.
 
I fecking predicted this yesterday

That's it. He's gone from United.
 
thats the end of him then, true or not SAF wont accept that being put out into the public - i'd be amazed if he played for us again
 
So Rooney wants to leave due to lack of ambititon?? Try telling the Utd fans, the Utd manager and the facts of Utd's recent history about ambition you fecking scouse cnut.
 
No surprises there then. Pretty much the expected, and Man Utd fans still won't accept this inevitable period for the team.
 
Sky Sports | Manchester United News | Football | Premier League | Glazers urged to consider sale


The Red Knights group of potential investors believe Wayne Rooney's sale would lower Manchester United's valuation below £1billion and should put pressure on the Glazer family to consider a sale.

The group declared, earlier this year, they would be prepared to pay up to £1billion to buy the Premier League giants but the owners were 'not interested in selling'.

Following manager Sir Alex Ferguson'sremarks that Rooney wants to leave, one Red Knight has told Sky Sports News HD that the group is "happy to watch and let the price come our way" and news of Rooney's possible departure "simply adds to our belief that the value of Manchester United is less than £1billion."

The Red Knight added that the value of Manchester United, without Rooney, could be closer to the £790m the Glazer family paid in May 2005.

The group will not make a further bid to buy Manchester United, unless the Glazers are open to bidders, but they believe Rooney's departure should put pressure on the owners to at least consider any offer to buy the club.
 
Agree fully with this. I don't want to see him in a United shirt ever again. cnut.

Sad, but this is how I feel, now.


I tried like hell to support him through this difficult period ~ give him every benefit of the doubt. Squeezing the club for more cash in these tough economic times, along with the horrendous debt saddled by the Glazer Family Loan Raid...

Let him go to Real Madrid or Barca.

Honestly, it has been a challenge for the past 7 or 8 years since he's been with the club. Fergie had tried to mold the squad around Rooney, to some degree neglecting other squad players for the sake of keeping 'The Boy' happy... and this is how he repays his boss?

fecked up, it is... well fecked up.
 
So after 6 years of unprecidented success, finishing second last year by a point wasn't good enough for him and he needs to move to a club that are going to win the title instantly ....

Hmmm...nah, not having that.


Not that surprising, it's pretty much the only arrow left in his quiver.


Exactly.

In fact using the G&G movement to try and get the fans on his side is actually fairly disgusting.
 
It's the only PR route they have left. I don't think it is his reason for leaving, even if it is true.

Plus why the feck should Gill "assure" Rooney about future transfers.
 
What a fecking shit excuse. Theres no doubt in my mind its about the money. Lying treacherous cnut. Don't buy it for one second folks.

In the same vein, why the feck should Rooney sign a new contract?
 
To be fair, we'll probably sell Rooney for £40m and buy a couple of kids from Papa New Guiena for a combined total of £2m.
 
How do you know that he's lying? Have you been listening in on his conversations?

Open your eyes!!

Oh come on, Rooney treats everything like shit and is scared of the backlash he is going to get so is trying to get the fans onside, it doesn't quite work like that.

Clear PR stunt, how you fall for it I don't know.
 
It's a fecking bullshit excuse, we fecking lost the league by one point and we've strengthened from last season. Seriously feck off, you scouse cnut.
