HiEd I see Jose is saying Wayne can move and its down to him to decide when and if, i really think he would be a great benefit to the club he would be massive in helping our young lads and also a considerable help in our push for a top four, i know this subject has been talked over before but what do you reckon mate thanks, GuernseyBlue
{Ed002's Note - It won't be this month GB but if Manchester United can make a change they want in the summer there will be an option for Everton to put a package together as they won't stand in his way if he wants to leave. I would ignore all thoughts about "helping young lads" as the way clubs are now structured that is not really going to be a consideration. Else perhaps the summer after. Much will depend on what other options he has.}

Ed I haven't read anything yet but has Mourinho said Rooney won't be going anywhere this month or by him saying he won't stand in his way does that mean he is free to go whenever? I do remember RK saying a little while ago that if the possibility to sign Rooney arose it would definitely be something we would be interested in. I also seen Harry Redknapp has urged Rooney to come back to Everton not that anyone cares what he says haha
Keep up the good work by the way mate, love how informative you are.
{Ed002's Note - I have no idea what he has said but Rooney will not be leaving without a replacement and that won't be this month.}

He actually said he would not stand in Wayne's way for a big money move to China. He did not say he would allow him to move to the team one place below them who are showing considerable ambition and must now be considered a competitor. Perhaps he would let us buy him. but I would think there would be a considerable fee? Probably dictated by the sort of money that would be offered by the Chinese. eg I cannot see them turning down a huge fee from China to allow him to move to us for free. This is of course assuming he is under contract and the Chinese are offering a fee? Any knowledge on that Ed?
{Ed002's Note - Manchester United will let Rooney leave once they have a replacement - which might be as early as this summer. Everton will have the option to make a proposal if they wish to do so.}

Ed when you say Everton will have the option to make a proposal do you mean in the same as any other team would or that our sale of Rooney to Utd included some kind of clause or option?
{Ed002's Note - There are no clauses or options in any contract like that?}

Hi Ed thanks for the info, GuernseyBlue

Thanks Ed. as long as his replacement is not Lukaku I don't care!
{Ed002's Note - No, it isn't Lukaku.}

Thanks Ed. I'm clearly just reading too much into your response there.
{Ed002's Note - No problem CT.}

Come on lads the Rooney boat has sailed. Look to the future not the past. It's getting like a guy who's gorgeous girlfriend dumped him years ago but the guys getting his hopes up again because she's put on a few stone, had a few kids, and been round the block (literally) . Let it go you'll feel better, honest!

Of course Utd will let him go he's on 300k a week and has 2.5 years left on his contract 😆. Moyes tried to shaft us with Fellini and himself by letting his contract run out and then the first thing he does at Utd is give Rooney a 5 year contract worth 300 k pw 😆😆. Fair play to Rooney he has them by the short and Curley's 😆.
