Why? Because he would have slowed the game down at 1-0 by constantly hitting simple 5 yard passes hopelessly off target and out of play?In the games like Chelsea where we choked after KDB's miss, and when we bottled it against Spurs, having a Rooney in the team would not be a bad thing

His trophy haul was all won long ago and he hasn't played well in 6 years, he would under no circumstances be a worthwhile addition to our team.Ok. Whilst this is a city forum, you are allowed to think other players at teams we hate can kick a ball. His trophy haul speaks for itself, despite him being a prick.

It's all well and good having that attitude playing for the rags, he wouldn't get away with it here.Did I say Wayne Rooney of 2017 should be bought and put into our team? Clearly not. Not even close to resembling what I said
A poster referred to Alli as someone LIKE Rooney. Which is an excellent thing in terms of attitude and mentality. That is ALL I am saying
Nothing to do with the footballer Wayne Rooney, in particularly now.
I am saying we need more players with the attitude like him when he was at his best, which Alli resembles..

We don't need Alli either, if we're going to get someone nasty we'll get them as a DM and (a) playing Alli there would be a waste of his talents (b) We could get a player far better suited to the position for a fraction of the price Spurs would be looking for.

So tell me then why we should spend the vast majority of our transfer budget and the entire window up until the last week or so trying to sign an attacking midfielder?You've missed every single point I have made and seem intent on just being focused on some media/ref agenda/Rooney and are obviously against signing Alli, which I respect
Hes 20 years old mate, he will be at the very very top in 5 years
