Not Arsenal related but could have been! If we had signed him a year back, but I feel I need to say this about ROONEY.
I've said this a million times before. On the European and International stage Rooney is mediocre to say the least.
I feel that Utd have done a dis-service to all football supporters and football clubs in general in offering him a £300 grand a week contract minimum without his add ons. Last nights performance was a perfect example of why he isn't worth anywhere near that money, where was he in that game? and where is he in any International or major European game. The people that end up paying his wages are the supporters whether it is through Sky subscriptions going to matches etc. If he were exceptional we could probably understand it a bit maybe! but the point I'm really making here is. In this country alone I could name handfuls of players that could leave Rooney for dead in talent and that's without the European players we could all name. So what happens if you are a player and see Rooney on £300 grand a week? your agent wants the same for you and more because let's face it Rooney is no big thing. Who is going to end up with the bill? for this snowball affect? we all are. Boys and girls mark my words you will need a mortgage to watch Sky in a few years time if clubs are going to pay people like Rooney this type of salary. Can you imagine for one minute how much Utd would pay players like Ronaldo, Messi, Ibrahimovic, Ribery, Suarez, Aguero and even our own Wishere and Ramsey to name but a few. Any one of these players would leave Rooney for dead. To quote Jim Royle of the Royle family " £300 grand a week? My arse"

Couldn't agree more, he was and is the last person that I'd want anywhere near this club.

I'll credit him that at one stage in his career he was quality in the league, not been anything like that player since and they should have got shot when they had the chance.

That he gets lauded as their best player this season highlights exactly how poor that team is. They are abject and I will never understand how our boys get psyched out by them. 1pt from 6 still embarrasses me.

He isn't worth 300k per week (nobody in the world is), but he has definitely been utd's best player this season by some margin.
On his day, he's the best english player currently playing. but those days are few and far between.

He's worth whatever some one is prepared to pay him, everyone is.
My cars worth £500 to me but if all anyone will give me is £50 that's what its worth
Crazy but true

Daniel. I'm sorry mate I'm quite a nice guy really. But " Rooney, Best United player!"? Daniel that wouldn't be hard would it mate. Even you and I would have a chance at being their best player this season, they are diabolical.
