can anyone seriously see rooney in an arsenal shirt?/ I mean come on its almost as if the media just wants to laugh behind our backs I just can't see it happening out of ten I think there's a 0. 3333333333333 chance of it happening.

Agreed up until the last two 3s, but then you went stupid :-)

Rooney would be a top signing for us. Younger than RVP, not made of glass, just as capable of winning a game on his own at any level and a real statement of intent. Rooneys just gone stale at united and needs a new challenge and at 27 is a great time to do it. Wages aren't an issue. If we just dispose of the usual suspects we could free up £500k a week easily. Signing Rooney would mean an English core at Arsenal for the first time since the glory years of 98_05. Jenkinson, Gibbs, Chamberlain, Wilshere, Walcott, Rooney. I like the look of that.

We don't need him for what? Look where he is since RVP has been there? If he got any further down the line he would be a steward. Ha ha We don't want the little bald scouser.

I agree with Drakey (mostly). He would be a great signing, good English core and he has gone a bit stale. Good for England team too to have Ox, Walcott, Rooney and Jack in same team. Negative points though:

1) Although we can afford 200k wages, if we give it to him its then a slippery slope and everyone else will want a pay rise. I think we just about justify about 140k max given theo is on 100k and players like Pod on 80k (what is he on?).

2) I don't like him as a person (but I never really liked Nasri or RVP either)
3) His dive against us to get a penalty when Sol didn't touch him.
