Rooney STARTS

[theonesmith]

Not according to Fergie on the box now.

I agree with the basic point you make though - it's not a last minute decision and it's sure to be one that everybody at United is more than happy with. It makes no sense to rush him back.

I believe light training for the first 2 days with intensive and a full side match yesterday?

 

[Aldo]

why shouldnt Fergie play him?

 

[Hiney]

Decent start

 

[Easy 10]

Job done.
Now GET him OFF

 

[theonesmith]

Hehe

 

[Bluejuice]

why shouldnt Fergie play him?

Because ENGLAND is more important than Manchester United

Fair enough, perhaps I misunderstood.

The point we both agree on is that Fergie knows exactly what he's doing and you can sure he won't be gambling with Rooney, of all people.

Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney has played in a secret 11-a-side friendly and could be on the bench for Wednesday's Champions League quarter-final second leg against Bayern Munich.

And Rooney has been driving United manager Sir Alex Ferguson crazy with his pleas to make him a substitute for the Old Trafford clash.

His club is man united and Fergie manages United, he has no reason not to play him

 

[theonesmith]

Uh oh...

 

[jordanseagull]

Gone over on it again.

f*** you Ferguson.

 

[Bozza]

Limping.

 

[Eggman]

Crocked

 

[Mendoza]

And there goes the ankle. Limp limp

 

[Colossal Squid]

Take him THE f*** off

 

[El Turi]

Although he's not limping anymore, he still doesn't look right. Should be taken off at half time.

Should be, but probably won't be with the tie still somewhat in the balance.

Hope I'm wrong, mind.

 

[Easy 10]

Should't have frigging started. We're lucky he's not been stretchered off already, that's been more through luck than judgement. If he comes out for the 2nd half, I want Ferguson hung at the Tower tomorrow at 6am, and his head on a PIKE by 9.

 

[El Turi]

Van Buyten has already cynically targeted the ankle once (how was he not booked for that) and I would be surprised if the masked Argentinian man has a go in the 2nd half.

Calm down dear.
