the real question is who would win in a foot race between rooney and giroud?

that round bastard has never impressed me with anything regarding speed although he has a great touch i think he's on the back half of his career and i'd rather spend the money on a falcao or muller. plus he's a dirty, diving c*nt and i'd rather he stay out of a gunner red shirt.

Wouldn't want him as his best days are behind him.

I would go for a potential world class striker such as Jovetic, who plays in the same role as him and is much younger.

No thanks, Ferguson is very good at getting quality out of players, and if he's not performing that well at United, one only has to wonder how he'd be doing here...

Based on cuntishness, I would not want Rooney at my club.

Same thing applies to Ronaldo.

Which is quite fortuitous. 'Cos we can't afford either one of them.

Reports say we are close to signing Higuain and Jovetic.

I would be impressed if we signed either of them considering the probable cost of them, let alone both of them, but to think we would buy Rooney as well sounds like paper talk.

I voted not sure.

There's obviously something missing with him. He's never quite achieved what he should have.

He is a very talented footballer but just has never stamped his authority on the league or champs league the way past truly world class players have.

Maybe he isn't world class....but he's still better than all of what we have up front when he's on form.

My worry is that sounds like Rooney needs a firm hand and he's quite head strong and probably easily distracted,led astray. With AW's express yourself approach it's worked with most of our players because AW delibrately buys mild mannered players.

Rooney doesn't fit that mould and it could all go very pair shaped.

In 26yrs, Whiskeynose has only let one player go that wasn't on the decline and that was Ronaldo.

If he's cheap then maybe worth a gamble but he isn't so a very big and expensive gamble

I'd happily have him in the squad but not on anything like £200k/w. Still 0% of it happening mind.

And threaten Le Chapman and Forehead's roles in the team, and kill the development of Joel Campbell.

Not for me thanks

I voted yes. He is much better than anything we have in terms of attack. And if nothing else, to buy a player like rooney shows a bit of AMBITION from the board other than top four.
