Re: Rooney
Don't be fooled in to thinking this is 100% a genuine injury (it might partly be) & that's why he's flying home.
Rooney is a shirt seller abroad for Utd & a huge PR draw wherever they visit, so why would you send him home? They have a medical team out there with them & he would be looked after. Isn't the report a pull? So nothing career ending.
It would of made more sense to keep him out there & send him to hospitals, schools, sponsor headquarters etc to boost their profile & try to gain higher revenues etc. His time could of been spent promoting the club.
By flying home they miss out on all that, so why fly home for a pulled hamstring when in reality you could stay out there? IMO he's Chelsea bound, they are interested & I think he fancies the move to the big smoke. He won't risk staying in Manchester after last time & the threats, nor would we be looking at Negrado & Jovetic if he was a genuine target.
He may well have had a pull, but surely sending him home is overkill.
