Wayne Rooney's comment about Man United is shocking. United is still one of top clubs in the world and the club have also contributed to the growth of his career. The way Sir Alex handled the situation is commendable. However, I am glad this Rooney issue has been resolved. I hope he can now concentrate and give his best to United. Wazza, you have got yourself a 250,000 pounds a week contract . We are expecting more goals from you this season. Man United for life.

Players come, players play and players go. But Sir Alex Ferguson continues to be a pillar of strength for club and fans. He is indeed an unique role model for football managers.

If clubs were owned by fans like Real Madrid no football club in the world would have any problems with finance

How people like Jim, Saby and Osas can attack the writer instead of the subject of the writing is beyond me. All the facts of this article are correct. Rooney said he didn't get the answers he wanted the first time he asked questions about United's future plans, then said he got them when he asked a second time during the meeting with Ferguson and the other United officials the other day - which just happened to take place after he'd been slammed by media and fans alike for his attitude. He even apologised for his negative comments and his disrespect towards Sir Alex. How much more of an admission of guilt do you want?.. The rest of the article was just light-hearted speculation, which you might have gathered by the phrase "Here’s what I think happened, and this is pure speculation just for the fun of it."... Read before you criticise. You'll just embarrass yourself if you don't.

Rooney absolutely committed a crime against Man United especially to the fans and there must be punishment, for him 30 goals in the premier league with at least a goal against each of the so called big four and Manchester City since they are not among the big four, yet. And also 10 goals in the Champions league.
Secondly, he must sack his advisors because I believe Wazza was badly counselled,

I'm sorry but this is far from genius this is a pitiful state of the game when GROWN MEN cant talk like adults to each other privately. The game is pathetic and journalists who call this kind of behavior genius are obviously short of role models themselves. CNN has just shown it's reporters to be very oblivious to the real world

This is sad, is this even the writing of a CNN jounalist? Beacause you certainly come across as a smarty pants blogger, all opinionated speculation with no well thought out reasoning.
