I take it you are being absurd to make the point you don't want Rooney back.

Oh the current captain of Chelsea would make a good captain for us too, let's get John Terry in
He has been easily the best england player at the euros.
Popping up all over the pitch.
I'd have him back in a heartbeat, and I'd give him the armband.
->Wise man.I'm on crack and I say yes, figure that one out.
In his new deep-lying role I think he'd be ideal for us. I've been very impressed with his range of passing since he's moved to that position, as it's a talent which he had less chance to show off when a striker
Lol you're having a giraffe right?
Best English player in our generation and head and shoulders above any player we have now..
Youre a chunky voice of reason.Swerve him.
Youre a chunky voice of reason.
Look hes a decent player, would still score goals from number 9 or number 10, hes even done alright in midfield, we could certainly do a lot worse, but we could also do a lot better. Im not convinced his name rings out as much as it should and any benefit we had with shirt sales and the like would mostly go to Kitbag.
Sure it would be a marquee signing and he would no doubt do alright for us, but hes not the player that left, hes not even the player he was 2 years ago, he started at a very early age at the highest level, for England also, hes had a highly successful career with United, but hes played 40+ games a season for 14 years now, with not a great deal of off time most Summers, at some point, very soon all that will catch up with him.
If hes going to come hes got to come now, while he still has a LOT to offer us, otherwise, swerve.
FPP implications would be my only concern with having him back, 200k per week, thats 3 top players wages really
I'd have him purely for his mentality! He would accept nothing less than 100% effort and that attitude would rub off on others. We need a leader who will get in people's faces and give them a bollocking on the pitch, think Keane, keown, shearer etc.Absolutely agree. He'd bring a winner's mentality and experience to a club he loves in his heart. He's 30 and I'd rather get him back now while he can contribute a couple more prime seasons as a playmaker than at 34 or 35 when he's little more than on a farewell tour or has one foot in the MLS.
