if an offer comes in between 50 and 100mil i carn't see the owners refusing that because of the debt united are in so mite not come down to ferguson to reject an offer he dosent like
look
everyone has bees in their bonnets over this. all fergie has said is that Rooney wants to leave. That doesn't mean he will leave, it's Fergies decision. We don't know, he might have a change of heart for all we know. It's unlikely, but it's definetly something to do with family, and maybe Spain would be the place to go, away from the thick of it. Barely anyone mentions Ronaldo anymore, it's all gone quite.
Rooney might not leave United
Looking from a non football perspective here ..He has been with the club for what like 6 years and that's a longgg time for a short-ish career in football, i don't blame him if he wants to branch out there and go somewhere new. :S
calming down is easier said than done though when someone you idolise, support through thick and thin turning their back on you.
in a word, **** off, we'll find someone else to replace Wayne. Manchester United is a bigger name than Wayne Rooney, we're still be around challenging for the title with out without Rooney.

agreed, he might change his mind but i don't think most United fans will take to him again after coming out and sayin he wants to leave.
I don't think United fans should hate Rooney, for just saying, he wants to leave United. It's not a reason to hate anyone is it?[/QUOTE]
seriously?
its like John Terry or Frank Lampard coming out and saying they want to leave Chelsea after everything the club has done for them. Your think the same as us United think right now.
even a broken clock is right twice a day...
to be honest I'd take Daviid Gill and SAF's words over your "opinion"Look i said it with a calm manner and i feel i may have touched a nearve. Utd have no money to spend on players simple as that and we saw that when you sold Ronaldo the money went to pay off the Glaziers debt and it will be the same for this transfer also. I fear for Utd honestly and i think it will go the same way as Liverpool have. Utd at the moment have no replacement for Rooney simple as that and with no money you wont be able to bring anyone in either. You know it, i know it and my uncle's dog knows it that Utd are in a bad way financialy and its not looking good at all and its hard i know but its the truth that its not looking good.

I agree but i wasen't having a dig at you mate honestly. If Lampard or Terry wanted to leave i would be devastated but i know we would get a replacement.

Whats the odds on a Tevez "Come to City Wayne" story soon.....
Simple he's a ******. Once a blue always a blue. My ****.
This says it all. YouTube - Rooney kissing badge - Everton v Man Utd
If he goes to Man City he should be dropped from England.

in a word, **** off
If he can't be loyal to his clubs, why is he going to be to his country. Too big for his own boots if you ask me.What, because he changed clubs? Rubbish. Just 'cause he's a ****** doesn't mean he shouldn't play for England. If that were the case, Baines would be left-back and Jagielka would be starting ahead of Terry. Oh, and Gareth Barry would be dropped too.
Actually, I'm almost beginning to like this idea...
Well hang on, we really need to consider all possible avenues for where he could possibly go. In descending order of likeliness:
Man City: Yes, they're big rivals and yes, he'd get a jumbo-sized amount of stick from United fans, but money talks big time. An £80 mil deal with City (small change to them) would give United a big wodge of cash to spend, or more likely to allow to be nicked by the Glazers. However, one has to consider where Rooney would fit into a team top-heavy with strikers: yes, he's better than all of them, but would Tevez be happy dropping back into a wide, supporting role? If he did, where would Johnson, Milner, Adebayor et al fit in?
Real Madrid: Financially impressive, and a team abroad to keep Rooney away from the British press. However, abroad is both a boon and a burden. Quite apart from learning a new style of play, culture ang language, British players have historically never done too well (honourable mentions such as Lineker aside) abroad. On top of that, it's not certain that Madrid would want to pay such a hefty fee after bankrolling Ronaldo, Kaka, Benzema et cetera last year, as well as the fact Mourinho says he doesn't want a Rooney type of striker. Again, here we have the same situation as City: a team big on forwards. Higuain, Ronaldo, Kaka, Ozil, De Maria, Benzema, Granero, Canales and Pedro Leon are all competing for four spots. Ronaldo, due to his price tag and status as one of the best footballers on the planet probably has one tied down. Higuain seems to be established as main striker, too. Hence, Rooney would have to battle seven other players for two spots in positions he doesn't favour.
Chelsea: An odd one. Ambramovich has tightened the purse-strings, although could likely be persuaded to shell out big money for Rooney if necessary. A team with Drogba and Rooney in it would be fearsome, no doubt, but would Ancelotti be interested? He's been quiet over it. Chelsea fans have a right to be quietly excited, though.
Barcelona: Unlike their rivals, Barcelona are apparently financially unstable. Whilst their finances have been shrouded in secrecy, there's been rumours that they're, well, broke. On top of that, we have the same kind of problem as Madrid, with a crop of quality strikers. Whilst in this case Pedro, the weakest of the three, would likely drop out of the lineup leaving a juggernaut front three of Villa, Rooney and Messi, Barcelona also have a duty to their fans and philosophy to play Spanish players, and specifically Catalans. Whilst Pedro is from Tenerife, he is also a rising star of the Barcelona team and the world, developing at a scarcely believeable rate. This move is, in my eyes, unlikely.
Below these four in my eyes are the other, smaller teams. Bayern Munich are a big side, but may lack the financial muscle and be restricted by German league rules. Inter, too, may be interested, and city rivals Milan are always contenders for any big signings. Apart from them, Arsenal. Would Wenger be prepared to fork out the cash? He has the money, it is thought, but would be spend it? I honestly don't think he would, but if he did it could be a superb move for Rooney.
tl;dr - I reckon City, if he leaves at all.
