Lazy journalism.

It's not even that.
It was clearly just a tactical decision. Welbeck was probably the best player in the tie across the two legs and did a wonderful job on Alonso, RVP played because he's far better at holding the ball up and a better outlet than Rooney and Rooney was fucking wank on the wing in the first leg.
Jamieandhisego
Exactly, I completely agree with that as well.

As much as I don't read into newspaper stories (I don't even read any newspapers), it's very rare that if every single newspaper has a very similar story on it's back page that there isn't some truth in it.

Yeah, as bizarre as it seemed when the team sheets were announced until the referee lost his marbles that team selection has us going through relatively comfortably. The right selection, imo, and I think Rooney would have been made aware of it long in advance.
It's absolutely everywhere because he didn't play. Not a single paper ran it before hand, now they have some reason to fill up column inches of course they're going to do it. It's a bunch of guessers guessing, and I don't think he 'doesn't get into our first team for our big games' he just didn't get into that one, he's played virtually every game he's been fit for this season.

The way I saw the Beckham ordeal was heres a huge game, you're dropped, I'm the boss and if you want to stay here you'll realize that. Then obviously at the end of the season Beckham left because the relationship wasn't the same with Fergie, honestly think it's probably true, although I hate when they use "ESPN understands" or "our sources understand".

Didn't work though, did it?

Well Ronaldo was shite apart from scoring a tap in, so that part of the plan definitely did.
Sam
I still don't think Rooney is leaving, the decision to omit him was tactical and it worked until the red card!

Can't see Rooney being too happy about being a rotation player/ Man Utd paying out his £250k pw or whatever he's supposed to be on.

He's right though.

1. No.

Imagine if Nani ever play acted, or even dived...
Jamieandhisego
And the award for the most irrelevant point goes to....
VP.
God your such a fucking twat.
Would say its pretty relevant seeing as Nani was on the end of something he's made a pretty good name for doing himself.

When I said 'he's right' I meant his general point about Rooney
Not that bit, I imagine it would have really hurt Arbeloa tbh.

It's not really related.
Arbeloa play acted, that didn't help Nani's case but he wasn't trying to get him sent off, just make sure he got the freekick and Nani booked.
It was the referee's fuck up to send him off.

No, despite Arbeloa clutching it he didn't touch his chest.
