It is now time to switch to a new Money AM football blog as the world cup is now over and we all look to the future.....World cup 2010 is over, Bravo Espana, and Forlan, once again and bring on the new season !.....I never expected the last thread to be such a success...thanks all.... so this new one might go on for years without the need to edit the title...we shall see...

Well Done Chelsea!

Chris, his day of reckoning will come at the World Cup now that he is almost certain to go with Rodriques ruled out. lets see if he can turn it on there.!!!!!!!!!!!

And by the way if Pep G is such a big fan WHY HASNT HE EVER TRIED TO SIGN HIM.......or is he playing the Jose trick putting the pressure on him before the game starts knowing quite well he bottles it in the big games.

Come to think of it why hasnt any foreign team made a bid for Rooney especialy given his so called availability over the last 3 years. £25 to £28 million isnt that much these days, in fact if hes as good as you make out hes a bargain.

And I can tell you in confidence that is the truth, no one and I mean no one from abroad as approached UTD for Rooney.

GF - He struggles to speak English never mind learn a foreign language. Below are the honours he has won with Man Utd. He would have gone to Chelsea if Moyes hadn't agreed his contract. Maybe he is staying in the UK to win the only trophy that he hasn't won with Man U the FA Cup. :O)

1966 European Footballer Of The Year ...........Bobby Charlton

1968 European Footballer of The Year......... George Best

All played in the same team, and all came second and third in other years.


Rooney cant hold a finger to these greats.

The honours above for Rooney are pale in significance.

Noticeable that for individual honours he has won diddley squat since 2009/2010.
2517

Better clear this up right here, right now. I personaly don't give a flying fxxk re Wayne Rooney, as far as I'm concerned he is still a fat greedy bxxxxxd for leaving EFC in 2004. But that's life, thanks for the 30mill.

My point and pxxs taking is in answer to GF's absurd accusation that Man Utd's demise is down to Wayne Rooney.

And on that note, break out the Scnapps! Come on Bayern murder the baxxxxxs! :O)

Ohhhhhhh dear Chris, youve lost the debate so you self explode.

Hope this doesnt happen to the toffees who I have great respect for especially this season.

Lost the debate GF? What was the question?

Dunno but you started it after I posted Rooneys form wasnt good enough to take him to the World Cup.

I suppose now theirs nobody else, lets face it we have only about 4 or 5 strikers in the premiership worth considering and the pot as never been as dry.

It's Moyes fault not Rooney , everyone in the country can see it except Man U Board and they're one eyed fans.

Long may it continue :-)

Exactly GF, so he has to go doesn't he, irrespective of whatever form you or I agree or disagree he is in. :O)

What about that lad at Burnley Danny Ings??.

Anyway your argument wasnt one of short supply, you were backing up silly remarks that hes one of the Worlds best players............totaly wrong.

Hes average at best.

Wasnt always like that mind. Fergie played him down the left so that Ronaldo could play down the centre. Played him out of position too many times.

The problem really is when you look at it deeply and historicaly thats hes a 'jack of all trades rather than a master of none'.

I give in, surrender GF, lets just agree to disagree on this one.

Surrender!!!!!!! right straight to prison me lad with Maria Miller.

Thought for 20 odd seconds Utd had a chance.

Gotta say, Rooney was poor throughout.

Agree Rooney was poor tonight, but was he fit? United couldn't keep the ball, great goal by Evra. Best team won on the night.

Hes never fit these days Chris. The number of times he lost the ball and that chance on 50 minutes any other good striker would have put that away.

Its re-building for us now for the next 6 month or so.

True - Torres or Ba would have buried it

;)

Borrowed from across the road :O)


The letter in full

The Rt Hon Mr David Cameron MP

Prime Minister

10 Downing St

London

SW1A 2AA

Dear Mr Cameron,

We would like to offer our sincerest sympathies with regards to the recent problems you have been experiencing concerning the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, Mrs Maria Miller and her subsequent resignation which was reported in the media today.

It is fully to your credit that we note you offered your full public support to Mrs Miller just days before she tended her resignation from your cabinet.

It has also been brought to our attention that at least 6 other times during your 4 years tenure as prime minister, you have unswervingly offered your full backing to members of your cabinet – every one of whom immediately then went on to offer their resignations sometimes within hours of your expression of support.

We would therefore be grateful if you could help us out by publicly issuing a statement offering your full backing to Mr David Moyes in his position as Manchester United head coach in the hope your support will have the same desirable effect.

We look forward to your cooperation in this important matter.

Yours faithfully,

Manchester Utd Official Supporters Club

Strange that the weakest side left in the Champions league draw for Chelsea is probably Real Madrid.....
