What an absolute load of agent driven bullshuck that statement is.
Seriously, does this Judas take us for a bunch of idiots? Get the feck out of my club and stay out.

Deary me...this, as someone had pointed out, THE teamtalk for the rest if the season. What a retarded bunch the team behind Rooney are. Let's hope he passes any medical as I reckon his ankle is perma-crocked.
He is so wrong for 1000 of reasons. And its an insult to the club and to Fergie
Nah. The best players should want to win trophies all the time.
If Wayne Rooney had a few brain cells, he would have atleast made up some shit about wanting to leave to go abroad because of his private life.
Mark Lawrenson on 5live "who does Wayne think he is"
The Manchester call girls will be hoping he goes to City as they wouldn't want to see their turnover falling. He will be caught again, can't wait
Just read the interview. Absolutely disgusted.
Fergie, informed it's his 2,000th game as manager: "It feels like the 10,000th after this week" #mufc

Thats the impression I always get. From what I've seen, SAF and Gill are pretty much perfectly aligned and row in the same boat... both have to put up with the restrictions and policies that the Glazer ownership forces upon them, they are on the same side.
It's a shock, to be sure, but not as big a one as when he plays for his new club for the first time.
However, that's modern football for you. United will go on, one way or another, and at least we can't ever say it's boring!
Earn more, yes.
Win more? Maybe short term. Long term, I'll still put my money on Sir Alex. He's saying he's not.
Again, read the post properly. I said we had more quality players back then to fall back on than we do now. I said that we had a few duds in there. Look at that squad above.
We had more top class players there: Ferdinand Giggs and Scholes (when they were obviously younger and better), Keane, Van Nistelrooy, Ronaldo.
Who are these supposed top class players that we have now that are of that type of quality? Vidic and Van Der Sar maybe.
Rooney is on his way to Liverpool. I know because I heard Roy Hodgson saying "Looks like Wayne's coming." I didn't hear the rest though because it started pissing down.
sorry....
sorry....
Well that statement was an utter load of bollocks. The only reason he could give for leaving Man Utd is "ambition" without him looking like a traitor and money-grabbing bastard. His agent is clearly smart enough to see that Nike and Coca Cola won't spend as much money on sponsoring someone perceived in public as a cock and so clearly has come out with that statement with the clearly hollow praise for SAF etc.
So according to Wayne, after winning the title 3 years on the trot and reaching two 2 CL finals in those 3 years, we "only" come second (by a point) and only reach the QF of the CL the following years. Hmm, we must've turned shite, tell me we're gonna spend £50m on Kaka or I'll feck off. I could somewhat understand if we were at the stage that Arsenal are at now if we hadn't won a trophy for 5 seasons and he was 28/29 with only a few years left at his prime. feck off though after one "average" season at 24 years of age when you came into a Utd team with the likes of Miller, Bellion, Fortune and co regularly getting a game. Even if he was genuinely concerned about the state of the team, does it sound like a remotely interested/loyal player if he doesn't sign a contract, wait it out for a couple of seasons and see where the team goes or go if SAF goes?
He respects SAF so much yet he doesn't trust the manager's judgement at all and is clearly making up bollocks in the media. feck off Rooney.

The way I read it is this.
Rooneys agent went to United in August, and told them "look if theres no players coming in, I am off"
Gill, doing what he does best, fed him the "everything is fine.. We've got the money"
Rooney then sees that the money hasnt been spent, and goes back to Gill and says "hang on a mo.. what the feck is this crap. You promised me big names, we're bought fecking Bebe.. You've gone back on your word"
Gill then drops the bombshell ( which isnt a bombshell because we all fecking knew it anyway ) "sorry wayne. we're skint.. we cant afford anyone"
Cue ROoney throwing his teddy out the pram and saying "feck that then. I am going.. you promised me big names. You havent delivered. City are offering me shit loads of money so if I am going to play with crap players I may as well get paid more for doing it"
Poor old Fergie is sat in the middle with his head in his hands wondering what the feck is going on.
Boom boom tish!
If SAF and Gill have their hands held in transfers, they've seemingly taken the mindset of 'right, let's try to find a way to make this work'. Rooney's taken the mindset of 'right, a lot of money over there. I'm out.'
Just on Fivelive in a discussion about Rooney's statement.
Mark Lawrenson: Who does he think he is?
BBC Presenter: Does he have a right to ask for those assurances?
Alan Green and Mark Lawrenson: No
Mark Lawrenson: Who does he think he is?
BBC Presenter: Does he have a right to ask for those assurances?
Alan Green and Mark Lawrenson: No
He could've done if he wasn't intending to go to City.
Rooney said he was seeking assurances from Gill about the future squad. Shouldn't Rooney be speaking to SAF instead? afterall, it is SAF who decides the composition and recruitment of playing staff with the budget allocated to him.
never thought I would agree with these 2 idiots
They are absolutely correct. If even THEY get it...
But we used to sign the best young players around. The likes of Ronaldo, Keane, Rooney himself. The best young players in the world. Now we sign the likes of Smalling and Bebe. The comparison simply isn't there. Players of the calibre of Ozil (as an example) are the quality of young players we used to be in the market for. There is a hell of a difference between our current transfer prowess and ambitions to our previous one.
Very well said Pogue, I can't see how anyone can fall for that interview.
Alot of unexpected things going on the last day or two
That's twice in 2 days I've agreed with Green. It makes me feel dirty.
Why shouldn't he though?
Surely a player would like to know what direction the club is going in. His future decision would surely depend on it. Challenging for the top trophies or not, it's a perfectly reasonable question to ask in my opinion.
Lawrenson was absolutely right in what he was saying, and he sounded remarkably candid about it, he just seemed pissed off at football.
The guy from MUST on the other hand was being a cnut, Joga_Bonito is right, I'll have nothing more to do with them.
But on the reverse side, Gill has constantly come out and told us that there are no restrictions, and things are no different to the PLC or at any other club.
Now if he's told Rooneys agent differently, then what exactly has been said needs to be out in hte open.
Are we or are we not being restricted by the Glazers.
I am not excusing Rooneys behaviour. It fecking sucks. However, that said, the fact he's come out and laid the blame squarely at Gills door suggests to me that Gill isnt being 100% truthful either.
What really fecks me off though, is that in the summer, Real were sniffing. WHy didnt Rooney come out then and ask to go, when United could have commanded a far better price.
Two of the biggest ABU's on the planet, but even they are not buying Rooney's excuses. Everyone in football knows he is moving for money, he's proved to be a bigger mercenary than Tevez.
That may not be Rooney's reason for leaving the club, but can you argue with the reasoning? When Nani or any other player from the current squad reach their peak they will make the same noises and leave eventually. The point is till the Glazers don't leave or sort out this debt, make a few key signings, we will have this problem. And every time a player leaves you cant slate them for being money grabbing whores, sometimes we need to remove those tinted glasses.
some cnut on 5 live completely lapping up his "statement"
"As long as he didn't go for the money..." they lad has sympathy for him... as long as he didn't go for the money, yeah...
So you know Smalling and bebe aren't going to become great players huh? Have you ever thought of being a scout?
Could have atleast tried to lie and then 'magically' end up at City because 'no one' wanted him. He's really taken this to another level. I hope Fergie gets the biggest applause and reception because he deserves it, I'm off to watch the game. Hope the crowd do us proud.
Fergie, informed it's his 2,000th game as manager: "It feels like the 10,000th after this week" #mufc
