I fucking love that Mancunian accent

Very interesting.That 'no value in the market' quote was because the Glazers kept a lid on salaries. Back in 2010 I had a brilliant insight into this from the then Chelsea CEO who told me that united's top whack back then was £90k a week, when Chelsea's was £160k and we were offering £180k. That was at the time of Rooney's alleged transfer request and Chelsea tried to buy him.
It turned out this wasn't a genuine request but a trick to force the Glazers to agree to up the salary levels. They originally refused caved in once Chelsea had put a contract on the table and Rooney got his £180k a week (as did all those with a 'Highest paid player' clause and there were 5 or 6 of those at the time).
Funnily enough you never heard 'no value in the market' after that.
They do manage a few lucky results and that's always at the back of my mind whenever we play them.It will be fun watching United defending against our likely front three of Semenyo, Haaland, and Cherki backed by a midfield of Bernie, Rodri, and Foden. A bit like watching a horror movie for their fans. The reality is that they have managed a few lucky results against us in the last ten years but we have pretty much outplayed them every time we have met.
Well they weren't formed 150 years ago so not winning the league that year will suit them.
He is no longer with MiddlesboroSo Ruben Interim sacked. Now United talking to 2nd in the championship manager Carrick to be interim manager of a struggling United. Carrick must have rocks in his head to give up a battle for the championship title for a team that will probably be fighting to avoid a bottom 6 finish.
I think Carrick will turn them down.
Way too many times, probably. The weasel, arse licking, Rag ****.How many times do you think Ole mentioned 'United DNA' in his interview?
"Whether Michael goes in or if that's Fletch [Darren Fletcher] or John O'Shea or myself, it needs people who know the football club," added Rooney, who has recently been on holiday with Carrick and his family in Barbados.
It's the new thing isn't it. Do you think they have a big meeting at the start of each season to decide what message to push. That Arsenal wanker McKeown on Talkshite was saying it.God you will see the media go on and on about alonso going to the scum end of the season
LOL. It definitely would be a no-brainer if Rooney joined them.The City fan who found the magic lamp must have used their first wish on infinite wishes.

Manchester United Carrick: Wayne Rooney willing to join coaching staff
Wayne Rooney says it would be a "no-brainer" to rejoin Manchester United as a coach if Michael Carrick is appointed as a caretaker boss until the end of the season.www.bbc.com
Also, good lord. They’re absolutely clueless aren’t they?
