We all knew Rooney before we signed him. I thought you had something to share to us about this guy that might arouse our interest in him.
I've known Martial since 30mins ago and i tell you, he's better than Rooney because he shoots and not caress the ball.

Its highly unlikely true,but I rather we overpay for a known player like higuain than some other dude.
I wouldn't mind Charlie austin here.
Rooney can drop to the "10" and play the SS role that LVG dey get wet dreams about.
Rooney needs to be totally shut out of the XI until he acquires sense again, infact he should be playing for the U21 to regain scoring touch and attacking instinct because each tim he gets the ball he passes backward or sideways, he's so scared of facing the opposing defense and pick a pin point pass, he is running away and i suggest we assist him into oblivion.

#MUFC now really do have just one proven striker. Javier Hernandez has tonight agreed a 3-year deal and been sold to Bayer Leverkusen

I just dey look this coach. Even the incoming of one striker isn't enough to take us through this season.

Valdes is still here I remember I read this morning his move besiktas didn't go through.

That first goal hard o.

At least we played a somewhat entertaining game compared to drudgery that was the villa and newcastle games,

I sill believe De Gea would have tipped it.

You know he isn't going anywhere.
If we do get a new striker one of herrera or januzaj go lose playing time rooney will get his playing time the coach already assured him of this.

This is one of the reasons why i want LVG sacked. He has lost the control of this team to favouritism. He doesn't select based on merit. He sold Nani and now wanting Mane. What kind of a coach is he?

I don't think its favouritism. He tried to endear himself to the strongest player in his squad.
Its the same reason Moyes gave Rooney that contract.
If they both didn't do this rooney fit cause wahala for that locker room and they both don't yet have the clout like SAF to shake it off.

How can someone not repay a manager that has done so much for you? Rooney let Van Gaal down today. He let down his team mates and many of us. Rooney ought to go out there and battle for Van Gaal, if anything.

Rooney has had four go with the goalkeeper this season and he has delayed one or two seconds longer in each of them thereby allowing a defender to catch up. Sometimes you just shoot even if the angle is not so clear. I could forgive him against Tottenham because the season was just starting and fitness was a problem for some. Now it's 6 matches into the season. He looks sharper now, but why can't he shoot?

His first chance today was to his right foot, but he deliberatly waited for the defender to see if he could beat to the right to get a total clearance at goal. His dribbling was even too casual. The obvious decision was to pick an angle and hit quickly. Does a striker delay or hesitate?

The last chance that should have redeemed him a little, he did well to go past the defender, but what on earth was he waiting for? I am suppose to becoming here to be shouting Up Rooney! Up Rooney!

We threw away three points today.

It was clear to everybody in the first half. He should have sub Rooney when he still continued with his under-performance in the second half.

You rather we stick with Rooney than take our chances with £36M? I think you're still being remorseful and seem not to notice how Bad rooney was and how bad he made the team look. Against swansea, he didn't have to dribble or play a dangerous pass, all he had to do was stab the ball on 3 or 4 diff occassions and he failed woefully, he didn't just assist us in losing, he assisted the opponent to win, thats how bad he was. If i had 36mil, i'll risk it on a prodigy than stick with a so called professional striker who can't evn stab the ball talk more shooting it. He caresses, he caresses, he adjusts, he adjusts a bit more, he dresses, and next thing he's rolling all over the place and runs to the refree to plead passionately for a pk. Damn! Once again i'll take my chances with a 36m prodigy because i am certain he can shoot the ball since its one of the basic things in soccer.

It was clear to a loud part of this thread that Rooney isn't good anymore right from the preseason games.
I was among 20 EPL goal for rooney part.
My point is rooney has been awful aside from the brugge games.
The coach hasn't changed him yet.

That's why i said it's favouritism or what else do we call it? A player has been underperforming since the beginning of the season and a coach doesn't feel it good to drop such player and try somebody else.

Anyway, if he continues, it is going to cost him his job.

i am not defending rooney's performance but the worst player yesterday was depay he has shyte in the league since , our defenders have the bulk of the blame, where was luke shaw whend the ball was lost by rooney deep inside swansea's half where was smalling when ayew had a free goal at the ball, who did gomis turn like a pub player before he hit the bar,where was shaw when gomis had the second goal, united fans need real soul searching, darmian had a torrid session without facing montero, united had only one corner in the game the worst in the history of united.lvg has destroyed united, let him buy whoever they will struggle

1. Which club will sell a quality CF at this dying minute?

2. Even RVP has scored in faraway Turkey. Yet you people are still here calling for Rooney's head.

3. The problem is not Rooney. Afterall, you have a Depay who was last season's Eredivisie best player yet to bang in a goal for team under the EPL.

4. The squad team mentioned today is more than enough to strike fear into any team in the EPL.

5. My personal opinion is that the coaching crew is the biggest problem of ManU.
you are a real football fan, rvp was there when fenerbache crashed out of ucl alongside nani they didnt even score a goal over 2 legs, rvp has just a goal for his new club, when depay was bought he was been overhyped here now he has been shyte in the league and lacazette was suggested he wont score 10 goals with the mad gaffer utd have

Okay, but i believe you're cutting him some slack,
but the worst player yesterday was depay he has shyte in the league since,
You are not defending Rooney who lost 4 clear cut chances and couldn't even shoot, but the worst player was Depay who worked our only goal and had a shot saved from a free kick and gave Rooney numerous passes that Rooney misplaced. Okay i understand.
our defenders have the bulk of the blame, where was luke shaw whend the ball was lost by rooney deep inside swansea's half where was smalling when ayew had a free goal at the ball, who did gomis turn like a pub player before he hit the bar,where was shaw when gomis had the second goal, united fans need real soul searching,
Rooney shoudn't be blamed but Defenders? Are you for real? I'm begininning to doubt your credibility not only as a man utd fan but as a football fan. Utd were attacking with force after the first Goal, deep in swansea half we had shaw waiting on the left wing and Darmian on the Right, quick passes were being interchanged between the midfielders and depay, suddenly a crisp pass was played into Rooney's path and he gave it to a swansea player and the counter turned against us with our full backs in the opposition half and our [b]center backs high up the pitch[/b]Before shaw could get back and cover properly the ball already left the wing and into the box and the most stable player headed home. Rooney gave swansea and equaliser when we had them in our pockets. He gave them the equaliser and turned the game against us.
darmian had a torrid session without facing montero, united
If not that i promised to respect people's opinion, i would have sent you to the cleaners for this statement.
had only one corner in the game the worst in the history of united.
Its funny you are more concerned about the corner Utd never had than the chances Rooney failed to convert. Oga is corner equivalent to goals? What do we need corners for when we should have won 4-0 if not for Rooney?
lvg has destroyed united, let him buy whoever they will struggle
Yes we all know this but i believe he didn't tell Rooney not to shot on those occasions he was played thru. The only way i see LVG spoiling man utd is by continually playing Rooney. He shouldn't be in the match day squad at all, he'd be better with the under21.

After the game, one thing people still fail to understand is that Man utd didn't lose to Swansea, Man Utd lost to Wayne Rooney. Its equal to a defeat when you have somebody on your side working against you, because you can see what your presumed enemy is scheming but you can't see what your presumed Friend is scheming becos your eyes are focused on the enemy. A word.......

I'd rather such money is spent on players here in the league ; Mahrez and Austin would give us immediate impact than a lad similar to what we already have in Depay and Januzaj.

I'm way over it, I'm only still livid with at one person only - LvG. He's the cause of all these humiliations. He refused to buy Otamendi because of his countryman, Blind. He refuse to bench Rooney even though the Idíot is finished but yet he sold RVP. Even Chicharito wouldn't miss all the chances missed. He keeps playing Mata on the wing instead of midfield and then Young on the bench. Had the chance of buying Pedro but dropped interest. This man is a disaster about to happen. I'm not gonna comment till after Transfer Deadline tomorrow. If we don't get a new striker, i'll completely stop commenting here or sparsely comment because i can't be wasting my emotions and energy on a geriatric móron that knows zilch about coaching. I'll only start commenting regularly if God willing we luckily make top 4 this season. Stoichkov was right, Gaal is a time bomb about to blow.


And i hope you see why i didn't praise Rooney on Tuesday night? I remember you thinking I'm a hater, now I've been vindicated. Anyway, let me wait till Wednesday morning before knowing what action to take.

Oga, LVG has made it clear he won't rush into the transfer market, so don't expect any signing. Hernandez is gone. Na only rooney remain, LVG is really a club destroyer! Atleast, make we try win carling cup with his outdated phylosophy.. Rubbish!
