I'd probably prefer City or Chelsea to get Rooney over other players they'd choose to strengthen with instead.

I also don't think he'll do particularly well, I think a move within the country will flatter his sense of self importance and will accentuate some of the worst traits we've seen here; on the other hand if he were to go abroad I think he'd quickly tire of not being let off in the way he is here and not being undroppable.

I reckon Rooney will regret it if he were to leave, I also think we'd probably be better off if he did.

No, knock them off their perch, which was a far more ambitious, long-term project.

Who's to say that Pellegrini doesn't mean something similar?

Pellegrini was also asked about the 5 trophies in 5 years thing in his press conference and he said "Is that all?" or something similar.

You do realise that you have Roberto Martinez as manager and you will likely just scrape staying in the league?

You do realise you're an utter idiot?

It probably was.

Some spastics on redcafe were seriously blaming him for Thiago wanting to go to Bayern.

I hate club based forums. They are full of the dregs, cunts who spend their lives on twitter dissecting every piece of rumour and information. How anyone can survive in that environment is beyond me. I've been on Waccoe since 2006 and only have about 2000 posts and most of them came in the first year.

Despite the 140 character limit, I doubt that the official twitter would misspell the quadruple the club craves

Redcafe is ok but it probably looks like pure unadulterated shite from the outside.

You get familiar with which posters are blithering idiots and avoid the thread as soon as you see they're in a discussion and its fine.

David Moyes speaks about Manchester United's transfer situation http://tinyurl.com/p9vmd39 #MUFC

Unless he's just playing it down now that he's probably going to Bayern.

Interesting that he mentioned we want 2 midfielders and he seems pretty convinced that United would be prepared to go for Bale/Ronaldo after the names were put to Moyes.

David Moyes has a limitless budget to spend on a world class player according to Manchester United’s new chief executive Ed Woodward.

Should Cristiano Ronaldo or Gareth Bale sign for Manchester United it would be a real statement of intent from new boss David Moyes.
Woodward, who has replaced David Gill as United’s main administrator, said Moyes will be allowed to smash United’s transfer record, the £30.75 million they paid for Dimitar Berbatov in 2008, should the right deal arise.

Asked if United would be willing to pay £60 or £70 million for a player, Woodward told the Sunday Times: “Yes. Absolutely.”

United received a world record £80 million from Real Madrid for Cristiano Ronaldo in 2009 and the forward has been linked with a return to Old Trafford, while Tottenham’s Gareth Bale is another player who might command a similar fee and could be affordable.

And Woodward insisted that, despite wide-held beliefs that the Glazer family prevented him from spending heavily, Sir Alex Ferguson was also afforded the same freedom in the transfer market.

“I want to continue from where David Gill left us and David Moyes from Sir Alex,” Woodward added. “The way we worked with Alex was he would identify the transfer targets and take them to Joel [Glazer] and David [Gill], who would have discussions which ended with them backing him in the transfer market every single time and we see that continuing with David Moyes.

“We could have broken the transfer record in the past if we’d wanted to. Alex may not have got all the players he wanted but that was never down to not releasing funds. There’s never been a cut-off price. We haven’t got money burning a hole in our pocket but we have a strategy on player purchases and if David wants to go after a stellar player he can do that.”

But Woodward was adamant United will remain sensible spenders, no matter how big the fees.

He said: “What we will do is be careful with our money in the sense we’re not going to go into the market as mugs. We look at the value of the player compared to other players in his position. There’s no mysterious process.”

Saw that earlier, not sure how sensible it is.

'Hai guys we want Bale and we have unlimited cash to spend, but £35m is cool right?'

I reckon Moyes has just got so overexcited that he had more than 2p to spend.
