After Sunday, would you have Rooney back?

[roydo]

I'd we are dreaming, I would want a better player to dream about

Yeah, but the thread is about Rooney. Would be ace imo. Wont happen though. Not a chance.

 

[bring the ghost on]

I'm not that bothered.

 

[The Equaliser]

3 things would have to happen:

1) We'd have to find a £20m (ish) transfer fee.
2) He'd have to take a massive drop in wages.
3) He'd have to force the issue himself with United.

Shouldn't get the hopes up but you can't help dreaming like.

 

[marty mcfly]

He will come back at 35. So depressing.

Not unless he buys the club

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

Presumably this is not anything even remotely likely but if somehow it did happen I would be made up. He is a better togger player than nay we have right now so of course yes.
It will never happen though!

 

[mill]

To come here, he'd have to sacrifice around 16m over the next 3 years.

 

[maccavennie]

For a player a couple of months away from turning 30?

I would worry about giving him a contract over 3 years never mind having to pay a fee.

Yes mate I woukd pay for 20m for a player who is 29, is infinitely better than anything else we have, would put a shift in game in game out, improve our standing, you know with him being England captain and I reckon we would win a trophy and probably stand a decent chance of hitting the top 4 with signings like him.

We wouldn't necessarily have to pay a transfer fee since Utd in a year might just want him off the wage bill.

Makes you wonder though, wages and that. Like a few years back I earned tons more than I do now, like 5 times the amount, cos I had to. Now, I am happy with a similar standard of living, but just as content/fulfilled.

But I doubt footballers think like that.

 

[tnc85]

Yes of course! Such a shame the linesman didn't allow him to go through and potentially score. It would have amazing! The linesman didn't obviously realise the nature of the day. Argh well I hope we do see him score again in Everton blue!

We wouldn't get top 4, we probably wouldn't win a trophy and in 3 years time he would have no resale value and we would have to find 20m from somewhere to replace him.

Can you imagine the boost of optimism it would give us for the coming season if it happened now though ?

There I go dreaming again.

 

[Dithering Dougie]

As if we could turn our noses up at Rooney returning here, and if you believe the doom mongers we'll need in 3/4 years time when he's knackered and we're in the championship dreaming of spending money like the mighty Stoke or Palace while longing to have a stadium like Bournemouth.

 

[stamullenblue]

After this afternoon rant with that manc bell end I have changed my mind . I would have him back asap . Today made me relise what we miss . A true scouser who loves the club but money he had to follow to provide for his family's future . So yes I'd have him back but befor today I would of said no

Well said ... Couldn't agree more

 

[FTY]

I'd have had him on Saturday
