I don't think United will allow Rooney to go to City or Chelsea no matter the price. However aside from those two clubs there aren't many in the world that can afford him.

city has the lowest odds among bookmarkers all over, they usually have good sources.

i believe one of the major reasons he probably will be leaving is because he has <18 months left on his contract. so most major clubs should be able to afford his wages since they won't have to pay a massive signing fee and MU probably dont want him to walk for free

meh rooney's gonna go for a lot even with only 18 months left.. 24 year old world class players aren't plentiful.

god i wonder how long he's gonna maintain that streak.. well, it's only applying to league games (not that I can remember inter or chelsea losing at home in CL either on top of my head), but 139 games stretched over 4 different clubs is just completely unreal.

They don't call him "The Special One" for nothing =)

I think they'll be fine actually. The problems this year all have to do with spotty defense and a weak mid field. The defense will sort itselt out and I'm fully confident that if they can address the midfield issues a Berba and Chica/Macheda/Owen partnership can carry the load upfront.

well, no, last season they were more or less a one man team, and this season they're only somewhat near the top due to playing a pathetically weak early schedule. the defence is aging and suspect to comedy blunders (as is the keeper for that matter), the midfield is the weakest i've seen in a long time. the only bright spot for united is that nani is finally showing what he can do (when he's not rolling around on the floor like he's been shot every five minutes), and berba remembering what his job is.

Yeah, red card, although the first goal was before the red card. Anyways I expected Inter to win(gave them the adv) but didn't expect the score would be 3-0, scratch that 4-0 and it's only the 35th min.
