SuperDerbySuperRams Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 According to Sky DC United have agreed a fee for a striker who seems to have a bit of pedigree. Replacement for now? Their window closes tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One WC goal and apparently he's a Legend. What low expectations we have. Still, go ahead and wet your girly little pants because we're signing a Man Utd legend. overrated??? ???

Millenniumram Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Surely he wouldn’t ditch us this late for bloody west brom? They can try and battle for him, but it seems to be Almost done for him to move here, probably just needs to sign the agreed contract. All West Brom look to have somebody is enquires about him, we’re much further along than that- and we already seem to have beaten Burnley initially. Must be said though, 100k a week is mental money and this level and pretty unprecedented- though will be converted in part by the increase in sponsors etc I’m sure. Shame we won’t have him until January but I guess there’s not much we can do about that- may need a loan in the mean time though to cover him for 6 months? Though the daily fail article seems to suggest we’re trying to get him now, and West Brom would only move for him if he’s available now- maybe that and the fact DC have another forward lined up to take his place in Sunday’s game says something?

Sweetness34 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 You've got to be a special kind of miserable to not be excited by this. Even my old man is showing signs of at least being interested ? Wayne Rooney is 5 years younger than David Beckham was when he went to Paris St Germain who dare I say it a bigger club than us and I'm sure they were excited by that. We might get a couple really good seasons out of Rooney as a player, certainly one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrdave85 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Some Twitterati on the dcfcfans hashtag reckon this means the end of Cocu, one fella convinced he’ll be gone by Christmas with Rooney given the manager role. ?♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S8TY Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 If anyone doesn’t get genuinely excited about this then they need there head testing....Wayne Rooney is a legend and still a very good player ...will raise our profile yet further and put more bums on seats.and sell more shirts but more importantly will be a major player in this league even opposing fans will want to see him play ...great free kick taker and will help motivate the dressing room ...outstanding signing and maybe the biggest signing I can remember us making ...well done Mel ??????????

What a ducking mug lol, Lampard and Gerrard overrated just becuase they didn't do much at world cups?

Shang Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 It makes no sense for DC United to let him to fly over mid way through a season if it wasn't happening for in this window. If it was due for January, the MLS season finishes in October, so we'd have plenty of time to talk things over with Rooney in the off-season. It's clear they're looking to terminate early and want it done ASAP as they've got someone lined up and they're keen to swap their Designated Player registration for the upcoming playoffs.

alexxxxx Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Wonder what Jack is thinking this morning, Rooney on his way and no appearance last night. Hmm actually probs won't affect his chances as Rooney is sitting back a bit now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you have to score more goals in major tournaments as a striker than he did to be considered a legend. Top scorer for England , 120 caps which is the most for an outfield player, record scorer for Man United , scored loads of unreal goals over the years and was world class at his peak around 2006-2011, Lampard and Gerrard are legends and they did n't do much at tournaments just becuase we were an awful team due to how we were set up by clueless managers using 442 when we couldn't use it with the players we had.

I think you have to score more goals in major tournaments as a striker than he did to be considered a legend. You can argue anything if you want. Giggs? Salah? Podolski scored for fun for Germany but was a flop at Arsenal. So what? Top goalscorer for England of all-time and lead the line for United in 5 Premier League winning seasons. Stop being daft man. He is a legend. I am prepared for people to debate/ argue he may be past it, but saying how many goals he scored in a world cup tournaments is irrelevant. Anyway.... looks like it is happening so enjoy it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
