What i would like - Rooney resigns

What ill get - Rooney signs contract extension until the summer of 2099

This would be the best news the club has had in years! Let the walking spud go!

Now I don't want to wee on anyone's fireworks but let's face it, CKR is a pretty limited footballer. Sure he holds the ball up well and his attitude is terrific but as a striker he is slow, not great at heading for goal and is often subdued by good defending. 

Had that ball not been blasted into his chest against Forest, we would be talking about a second successive disappointing game by him. 

The dreadful dearth of centre forwards at the club has elevated him to folk hero status. 

He leads the line well and is great to have 'in the trenches' but we will need better to launch a challenge next season. 

If Monday morning was a forum post this would be it. 

Isn't this the kaziiiim fan club topic?

Anyway, I must say that kazim has been immense in every way since he started playing under Wayne. Player of the season for me.

With what Rooney said about only guaranteeing Evans game time in a back 3 then I guess that Mengi is coming in as 3rd choice ahead of Edmundson (who will most likely be injury cover) and will most likely feature when we do line up in a 3-4-3 like we did at bournemouth.

A direct replacement for Evans, and hopefully a step up in quality too, although he is very young so I don't expect him to dominate games like Clarke does.

Rooney said he only wants to bring in people who improve us. I can see him coming in for Wisdom at some point. Wisdom has been good lately but still worries the hell out of me at times!

keep Evans. 
not sure what the point is of signing United sprogs on loan.

Because perhaps he's better than evans... and Millwall might have guaranteed him playing time..

Say he joined again next season and we went up. That may allow us the funds for a permanent deal.

Rooney said 48 hours so that is Derby’s code word for not happening 

Has there been a new interview?

No. Wayne would like to bring players in.

But he's said if the takeover doesn't happen then we'll go with what we have.

Do I not remember something about him having targets for if the takeover happens and another set of targets if the takeover fails? I would be supprised if Wayne would have took the job if he wasn't guaranteed backing (funds) either way.
