Pretty sure it's gallows humour but United are even less likely to sell to us than Liverpool. If we sign Rooney, I'll eat Ivanovic.

Let's go the whole hog and get Fungus as well. He is out of contract meaning no transfer fee but high wages. Wenger should like that and we get someone who knows who to bung!

I'd take anyone now instead of Wenger.
Err except Rodgers.
We must do whatever we can, pay whatever money there is to get him.
We get him and our season and whole outlook will change in seconds.
Locker room cancer?
Signing Rooney would be equivalent of us winning a trophy.

Absolutely.
He's certainly stopped United from winning things.
Wow, striking image.

😆 Kinell Alf- You're starting to sound like Wenger.
Rooney would be stupid to come to us. So there's a chance I guess.
Nothing special, united would probably sell to us.

But Utd aren't as stupid as Arsenal so they probably won't sell to us.
Not everybody is as stupid as us. Even Liverpool isn't. They know they won't be able to account to their fans if they sold their star man to another club in the same league.
Their star player don't have 12 months left on his contract. They actually have a bit of leverage.
Who knows whether Persie would have left? It is just speculation. What is beyond doubt is that we sold our best player to one of the teams we need to catch up on, and the title in the process, for £24m.
We know because he said he would. It's not speculation.
Look, this has been done to death already. Either you agree with the reason or you don't. But there was a reason. It's not comparable to Liverpool's situation at all.
On van Persie
