HEINZE PUTS OFF DEBUT... AGAIN!

Manchester United defender (allegedly) Gabriel Heinze has put off his debut for his new club again and insists he has to play for Argentina in World Cup Qualifiers. After securing his Olympic gold medal yesterday in Athens, Heinze will be continuing international action for Marcelo Bielsa's side against Peru on September 2nd. "I have to play for Argentina. I don't make the schedules. It is a problem for FIFA, for the federations and for the clubs." "After the Olympics, I will go straight to Argentina to prepare for the World Cup match on September 4 and after that I will go to Manchester." The versatile 26-year old has already infuriated boss Sir Alex Ferguson for deciding to play in the Olympics let-alone the Copa America tournament. But Heinze aims not to have a rest and get back into action as soon as possible. "I took a lot of hits and bruises in the final. My body aches but I'm fine, I'm young. I feel like I could play right now." He added: "I am looking forward to getting to England and play for Manchester United. They are the greatest club in the country. "It has always been one of my goals to play in the Premiership. It is the best league in the world"

I am not surprise. For him, I guess he never really have a chance to play for Argentina b4, so this is a chance that he must treasured. Another thing, Argentina really won't be able to pay any money to their coach, otherwise, how can they have same coach for both senior and junior team. The one that went to Olympics are more like the junior team rather than the senior team.

2)Right back...sorry Gary...but i think u spend more time complainin then playing...(think he kana scold by SAF against Rover - he try to kick the ball away when a foul is given against Utd...I din make it up..I always look n listen carefully when the game is on...tell u more what i find out later)



I disagree with you about Howard, though he's named as the next GK that can replaced the Great Dane, but that doesn't mean he played the same style as he does. He got his own style and I think he did a great job. And we do have 2 very good replacements just in case he's injured or something else.

Whereas G.Neville, I do agreed that he do talk too much sometimes. But he's getting better nowadays. At least, not as much nonsense as last time. But who are we to comment about him when the coach never commented anything about him.

Rooney war nears endgame

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/40007000/gif/_40007236_rooney_mannew_203.gif

Manchester United and Newcastle have until 1200 BST on Tuesday to secure a deal with Everton over Wayne Rooney.

Everton, who play at Old Trafford in a lunchtime game on Monday, are sitting on a reputed £25m offer from the former Premiership champions.

United chief executive David Gill is expected to continue talks with Everton chairman Bill Kenwright on Monday.

But Newcastle are said to be preparing a bigger bid than the £23.5m that was rejected by Everton last week.

The clubs have until the transfer deadline at 1200 BST on Tuesday to seal Rooney's signature, which means any negotiations would realistically have to be concluded on Monday.

United's great escape

Gone in 60 seconds - that was effectively what happened to Blackburn's three points against Manchester United thanks to a difference of opinion between Premiership officials.

How Blackburn manager Graeme Souness must have wished Chris Foy had been in charge of Sunday's emotive and controversial clash at Ewood Park.

For a start, fourth official Foy might not have dismissed centre-back Lorenzo Amoruso for two cautions, reducing Rovers to 10-men for the final 19 minutes at a time when their backs were already against the wall.

Souness was already upset by the first of the bookings for a 40th-minute shoulder-barge on Kleberson.

And he was even angrier by the amount of injury time added on by match referee Alan Wiley who opted for four minutes, over-ruling Foy who had indicated three to the Burntwood official.

In that last minute of the four, United striker Alan Smith lashed home an equaliser after Louis Saha had clearly used his hand inside the area after Paul Scholes had whipped in a free-kick.

For United manager Sir Alex Ferguson, relief and elation; for Souness, disbelief and deflation after watching his side hang on grimly by their fingernails to an 18th-minute lead given them by a fine strike from Paul Dickov.

At least Wiley explained his actions, initially in response to the amount of injury-time debate, stating: "The fourth official indicated how many minutes he thought it might be.

"He thought it was three and I said no, it's four. At the end of the day, it's my decision."

Then when asked about Saha's handball, which was clearly picked up by television, he replied: "Had it been spotted then it would have been given. But it just wasn't seen by either myself or the assistant referee."

Souness bristled with indignation after the game, but the normally outspoken Scot kept his cool as he said: "When you concede a goal like that in the last seconds it is hard to take because the replays showed it was clearly handball."

"There are a couple of things I would love to go into, but I can't. If I do, it only works against you."

Souness, though, conceded his side were lucky to pick up the one point, never mind the three they were on the verge of practically stealing off United given the dominance of the visitors who were denied time and again by the brilliance of Brad Friedel.

"It would have been hard for United to have left with nothing after their performance," added a respectful Souness, who also stringently denied stories linking him with a return to Rangers.

Ferguson agreed on that score and about Saha's handball as he commented: "That was another wrong decision by the referee."

"But I think Graeme will be happy with a point because it could have been six or seven [goals]. I thought we were going to come away empty handed."

"There are only so many times you can hit a door and it doesn't open, but in fairness their goalkeeper must have made half a dozen saves. He did a fantastic job. But we had some good chances and should have put a few away."

The question is, would Wayne Rooney have found a way past Friedel?

United on Sunday increased their offer for the Everton and England striker, in excess of the STG23.5million tabled by Newcastle and believed to be STG25million.

The clock is ticking as the transfer window is due to close on Tuesday, but with such delicious irony, Ferguson and Everton boss David Moyes cross swords at Old Trafford on Monday.

Ferguson insists his friendship with Moyes will not be affected by the saga surrounding Rooney, proclaiming in the Manchester Evening News' Sunday Pink: "Not really."

"I've spoken to David a couple of times over the last few weeks over different matters. He came to the Vodafone tournament and was in my office having a cup of tea after the game, so I have no problems with David. He and I get on very well together."

With Moyes' patience stretched to the limit over the last few weeks, Ferguson believes his fellow manager has worked wonders in his time at the Goodison Park helm.

"David has to take great credit for the job he has done there," added Ferguson, whose side have not lost to Everton at home for 12 years.

"He has galvanised them in whatever way he has done and managed to keep that appetite and enthusiasm about them."

But with time running out until the transfer deadline it would appear unlikely Moyes will be able to keep hold of Rooney, with good friend Ferguson the likely captor.

Manchester United could hand a first start of the season to striker Louis Saha, who came off the bench at half-time at Blackburn on Saturday.

Kleberson could make way for the Frenchman with Paul Scholes dropping into a deeper midfielder role.

Everton will welcome back defender Gary Naysmith for the trip to Old Trafford after he served a suspension.

Boss David Moyes has no new injury or suspension worries and Leon Osman should keep his place in the midfield.




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Man Utd (from): Howard, Carroll, Ricardo, P Neville, G Neville, O'Shea, Silvestre, Spector, Ronaldo, Miller, Djemba-Djemba, Fletcher, Kleberson, Scholes, Smith, Saha, Giggs, Bellion.

Everton (from): Martyn, Naysmith, Hibbert, Pistone, Stubbs, Yobo, Weir, Osman, Gravesen, Carsley, Kilbane, Campbell, Ferguson, Bent, Wright, Watson, McFadden, Clarke.

Manchester United have revived their interest for Anderlecht defender Vincent Kompany.
The Belgium international is regarded as the hottest young defensive talent in Europe and was watched several times last season by United boss Sir Alex Ferguson.

AC Milan have been locked in talks with Anderlecht about getting first refusal on the teenager, which has sparked United into action.

Ferguson is determined not to miss out on Kompany and could push for a deal in January if Anderlecht are bounced out of the Champions League group phase before Christmas.

ya..not too bad.quite a strong defender at such a young age.

btw....Sir Bobby Robson is been sacked by Newcastle.thats it! Rooney is 95% closed to moving to Manchester United cos newcastle might withdraw the offer for him.


Newcastle United have sacked manager Sir Bobby Roson just a month into the new season.

The former England boss has been "relieved of his duties" at St James' Park after five years at his hometown club.

Newcastle have endured a poor start to the new season, and a series of spats with key players has not helped Robson's cause.

Kieron Dyer refused to play against Middlesbrough, while Craig Bellamy voiced his unhappiness with the performance of the team so far this season, and their interest in Wayne Rooney threatening to leave if the Everton youngster arrived.

Robson also took a massive gamble leaving skipper Alan Shearer out of the starting line-up for the weekend defeat to Aston Villa and it appeared to backfire as they lost 4-2 at Villa Park.

Robson had been informed by chairman Freddy Shepherd that his contract would not be renewed at the end of the season, but Newcastle have now taken the decision to terminate his contract early.

Newcastle will now step up their search for a new manager as they look to get their season back on track and Shearer, along with Birmingham Steve Bruce, have both been strongly linked with taking over the hot-seat at St James's Park.

Former Liverpool boss Gerard Houllier has also been mentioned about taking the role on a short-term basis until the end of the season with Shearer acting as the Frenchman's assistant.

Newcastle released a statement insisting their poor start to the new season had led them to take the decision to part company with Robson.

"After a disappointing start to the Barclays Premiership season the directors of Newcastle United have informed Sir Bobby Robson that they have decided he is to be replaced as team manager," read the statement.

"The directors of Newcastle wish to place on record their thanks for the way in which Sir Bobby has worked tirelessly over the past five years to try to bring success to the club.

"There is no hesitation by the club in recording its sincere appreciation for the way in which Sir Bobby has handled team affairs during that five-year spell which has seen a significant turnaround in the club's fortunes.

"The club agreed early in 2003 to extend Sir Bobby's contract by one further season. However, after careful consideration the club decided it was in the best interest of all concerned to revisit that decision.

"The club continues to have the greatest respect and admiration for Sir Bobby and his lifelong achievements both at home, abroad and particularly at the club he has supported since a boy, his beloved Newcastle.

"He leaves having remodelled the Newcastle team with many young players who are admired and coveted across the UK and Europe. The club will no doubt continue to benefit from the knowledge and experience he has given during his time here."

I am so bloody pissed now...it was such an half-hearted display...awful passing...nowhere near the best and so much for too much possession..carve out too little chances..e list is endless...7 points easy to make-up? maybe 2 or 3 seasons ago..not now....

Remember 2 seasons ago...when utd lost to man city and fergie felt that he should e fans into the dressing room to let hem know how they feel...HE should probably open the doors before it is too late...

Maybe i am exagerrating..but it hurts when we dont win and we lag behind arsenal and chelsea...

[Ronaldo7]

don't worry , there's still 34 games to go and we know what man utd is capable of . on the other hand , we seriously need to improve on our set peices IMO . after the departure of beckham , our set pieces really cmi at times :rolleyes:

[1920_me]

have to agree...setpieces CMI...jialat man...ronaldo looked so tired and i think bellion and fletcher cmi oso....so many corners oso no use and free-kicks all oso like crap one..we're not the best in england anymore..

Start of the season only n the gap seem like very big already....dun tell me we r fighting for the fourth spot??? :rolleyes:

That's why... we need more of the creativity.. Rooney adds to our attacking edge but we need the Scholes or Giggs type of inspiration from the midfield..

But anyways today young Spector did well

still nothing resolved on Rooney

Everton chairman Bill Kenwright has claimed "nothing had been resolved'' in the Wayne Rooney transfer saga.

Kenwright met Manchester United chief executive David Gill for dialogue on Monday as the clubs played out a 0-0 draw at Old Trafford.

United tabled a second bid, believed to be £25m, for the 18-year-old at the weekend and are still awaiting a response.

With the transfer window about to close on Tuesday they are running out of time, especially as a medical and personal terms have to be sorted out.

Kenwright said: "We had a chat but nothing has been resolved. Wayne Rooney remains an Everton player.''

Asked if he expected anything to happen in the next 24 hours, Kenwright replied: "I don't know. I truly don't know.''

United were keeping quiet about the situation. Manager Sir Alex Ferguson refused media requests for interviews after the game.

And there were reports he took this stance as he was locked in talks himself with Gill about Rooney.

The youngster did not play for Everton at Old Trafford as he recovers from a foot injury.

Speaking after the game, Everton boss David Moyes said: "I cannot give any indication about the situation. We have not even spoken about it today.''

It's alright, as long as W.Rooney dun sign Everton's so-called "improved" contract, the chances that he comes to Man Utd w/o Man Utd paying is BIGGER! Let Everton regrets for doing this 2 Man Utd.

Btw, how's the game performance? I knwo it's a draw, how badly or good does Man Utd performs?


Anyway, I got faith with Man Utd, they will bounce back.

i am sorry i have to post this on a tuesday morning. could not zzz after the match...

i thought fletcher's performance is consistently poor. the last few matches, he played in the right side and there's the excuse that he is not used to the position. last night, he played in the centre, and he looks lost. cannot pass well. looks jittery. and most importantly, do not tackle at all. looks like another luke chadwick. sorry to all fletcher fans. from the start, i thought that he is too weak, both physical and mental.

scholes had a very poor match last night. did not pass well at all. i suggest he go for a shave.

ronaldo looked tired but he ran his legs into the ground.

o'shea looks like ****e. really hoping for rio to come back. my ideal backline with extra tough bite:
gary-rio-silvest-heinze with spector as cover. and we need another rightback who can cross.

i was hoping that rooney stay with everton until christmas. at least there's sufficient time for medical.

it looks like there is not going to be any new players. i really hope that the players buck up.

i am not upset that the team lost or draw.

i am just super upset that the team did not play to their potential.:mad:

[Raul7]

like that i rather rooney go utd on a free transfer..hahahaha:D

'Nothing resolved on Rooney' - Everton


Everton chairman Bill Kenwright tonight claimed 'nothing had been resolved' in the Wayne Rooney transfer saga.
Kenwright met Manchester United chief executive David Gill for dialogue today as the clubs played out a 0-0 draw at Old Trafford.


United tabled a second bid, believed to be #25million, for the 18-year-old at the weekend and are still awaiting a response.

With the transfer window about to close tomorrow they are running out of time, especially as a medical and personal terms have to be sorted out.

Kenwright told Sky Sports: 'We had a chat but nothing has been resolved.

'Wayne Rooney remains an Everton player.'

Asked if he expected anything to happen in the next 24 hours, Kenwright replied: 'I don't know. I truly don't know.'

United were keeping quiet about the situation. Manager Sir Alex Ferguson refused media requests for interviews after the game.

And there were reports he took this stance as he was locked in talks himself with Gill about Rooney.

The youngster did not play for Everton at Old Trafford as he recovers from a foot injury.

Speaking after the game Everton manager David Moyes said: 'I cannot give any indication about the situation.

'We have not even spoken about it today.'

The Everton fans constantly taunted the absent Rooney, who handed in a transfer request last week, but Moyes said: 'I have not thought about that.

'Wayne is a very good player and is a joy to work with.'

Moyes added: 'I do not know what else I can say about the situation.'

WAYNE ROONEY will today complete a £25million switch to Manchester United.

The Everton and England superstar, 18, was at United’s Carrington training ground yesterday for a medical.

Old Trafford director Maurice Watkins and chief executive David Gill are understood to have met with Rooney’s agent Paul Stretford on Sunday night to go over the final details of the player’s contract.

Rooney is expected to be unveiled by United today and the transfer has to be registered with the Premier League by 5pm this afternoon. They in turn have to register it with UEFA by midnight tomorrow.

The transfer will bring to an end a protracted saga which has lasted since May when United first targeted the player.

Initially Everton had been holding out for between £30m and £40m.

But it became clear they were not going to get that price for a player whose position at Goodison Park has now become untenable.

United had wanted to wait until the January transfer window to do the deal but were fired into action last week when Newcastle made a shock £20m bid.

The Old Trafford board quickly matched that offer.

Newcastle increased their bid to £23.5m but the Reds topped that with a final offer of £25m.

The only dispute between the clubs is over the structure of payment.

It is understood Manchester United were offering an initial £10m down plus the same figure in a year’s time and the rest made up based on Rooney’s future achievements with the Reds.

However, Everton were not happy with that final clause and wanted it to be a straight cash deal of £10m down plus £10m in 12 months.

Last night negotiations were continuing on how the remaining £5m would be paid.

Everton do not want that payment based on United’s potential success.

Rooney made it clear to Goodison boss David Moyes that Old Trafford was his preferred destination.

Things have recently turned ugly for Rooney on Merseyside with Everton fans turning against him.

http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2002390000-2004401556,00.html

For £25m, he better start banging in the goals for us. :o

[greycat87]

Yea! Going to print ROONEY behind my jersey already :deg:

dunno sign rooney for wat??:rolleyes:
but since he is a united player liao, hope he can perform for united lor..:)

[majongfreak]

Actually, Man U doesnt need Rooney. Rather, they should strengthen their midfield instead. A Cantona-like and/or Keane replacement. IF only they had gotton Ronaldino last season.........

[pale]

This is a rant:D

Saw some reports say Man utd was unlucky.blah..blah.

What a load of Bull****. Man Utd played like a bunch of pu**ies in the first half. 2nd half improve abit but performance was so much worse then the blackburn match.

It pains me to see Man Utd playing the way they are playing now. All huff and puff with no direction.

Seriously ..even as a Man Utd fan. I know that if Man Utd play Arsenal now. We got 95% chance up the lorry.

Rant over:D

I hope this Rooney deal will spark some life into the squad. I still think we are better off getting a playmaker or defender.

[majongfreak]

Couldnt agree more. It seems like the current crop of players are simply not gd enuff.... 'O Shea has a poor game in defence again, Fletcher was non existent, Silvestre looked lacklustre, even Tim Howard also looked uncertain. One plus pt is the young Spector who had a decent game. Cant wait for Heinz and Rio to join the 1st team..........

My prefered line-up:

Defence: G Neville, Wes Brown, Rio Ferindand, Heinz(Spector)

Midfield: Ronaldo(Smith), Scholes, Keane, Giggs

Forward: RVN, Rooney(Saha)

GK: Tim Howard

Sir Alex Ferguson will add Gabriel Heinze to his squad before Manchester United's Champions League trip to Lyon next month.

Olympic gold winner Heinze will finally join his Old Trafford team-mates on Monday 13 September two days after Argentina end a summer of international action which has kept him away from his new club.

United signed Heinze from Paris St Germain in July but apart from a brief visit during the close season, when the deal was tied up, Heinze has not seen much of his new club. He played in Copa America where Argentine were runners up, then in the Olympic Games where they won gold on Saturday and has now two World Cup qualifiers to complete in the next two weeks before being free to join United.

Ferguson says he is looking forward to adding the defender to his squad: "Heinze is due back after Argentina's game on 11 September, and but we haven't decided whether to give him a holiday after that or not.

"Obviously the first thing to do is get him here, his wife's here at the moment and she's been here since June.

"He hasn't actually met the rest of the players yet," said the United manager.

It seems likely Heinze will be drafted into the side immediately with Sir Alex shelving plans to give him a break until later in the campaign.

[guoquanyap]

rooney will add something special to the team....he can play jus behind ruud or behind 2 striker as the playmaker....big strong and fearless....

IF only we sign ronaldinho....but we didnt so let's move on....rooney got time and age on his side, got the potential and talent to develop into a worldbeater, hopefully wearing a manu jersery....

do wat Cantona had done and get us the championship back and revive the glory which happen in 1999 at Nou Camp when Ole scored the winning goal w the last kick of the game....

Everton today confirmed Wayne Rooney was on his way to Manchester United.
The 18-year-old England striker, who had also been targeted by Newcastle, was undergoing a medical at United's Carrington training complex following tests at a Manchester hospital earlier this morning.


The two clubs have yet to officially confirm a transfer fee, United having increased their bid to £25million over the weekend.

Transfers involving money or fees must be completed before 3.30pm, although players can still be signed on loan until the European deadline at midnight.

Rooney is currently out of action after breaking his foot at Euro 2004. But that would not appear to have deterred United from getting their man, who arrived at the training complex with United's club doctor Mike Stone.

Rooney was not in the stands at Old Trafford when Everton drew with United yesterday but arrived in Manchester less than 24 hours later.

He hit out at Everton at the weekend for the response to his transfer request last week and said he was ``gutted'' at the situation at the club.

Fans at Goodison jeered the absent teenager during their team's 2-1 win against West Brom after he demanded a move.

Newcastle bid £20million, and then £23.5million for the Croxteth-born player who has scored 17 goals for the Toffees since arriving in the Premiership spectacularly two years ago.

But the departure of manager Sir Bobby Robson yesterday, plus the fact the Magpies could only offer UEFA Cup football compared to the lure of Champions League action at Old Trafford, would appear to have swayed Rooney away from the north-east.

United failed with their first bid of £20million before increasing their offer over the weekend.

The teenager's reputation - and consequently his transfer value - rocketed in the summer when he was the star of England's otherwise unremarkable Euro 2004 campaign, until breaking the fifth metatarsal bone in his right foot in the quarter-final defeat against hosts Portugal

Manchester United have reached an agreement to sign England's teenage striker Wayne Rooney.

"Manchester United Plc has reached an outline agreement with Everton FC for the transfer of the registration of Wayne Rooney, subject to his successful completion of a medical," the club said in a statement to the London Stock Exchange on Tuesday.

I am afraid Smith could be drop to the bench. O'Shea and Silvestre has been awful in defence. :alien:

Everton defender Alan Stubbs says close friend Wayne Rooney will be a success at Manchester United.
"Wayne is a special player and will fit in well if he goes to United," said the former Celtic star. "If it does happen I wish him well. He is a good pal. If it does work out for him I will be delighted.

"It would be a massive move for Wayne and would generate a lot of money for Everton."

Stubbs added, "Hopefully it can be sorted out and we can get on with other things. I think both parties would like that now because the situation has dragged on a bit."

squad rotation is the key....we got so many games to play we need everyone fresh throughout the season....but Ruud will be up there when he is fit....but will surely be drop if he off form....

the squad now is almost certain gng to challenge for every title w competition so keen for every position....even ruud cant any things for granted....

easy to say...depend on the oppsition, tatics and form of players....

Manchester United Confirm Rooney Signing

Manchester United is delighted to announce that it has finalised an agreement with Everton Football Club for the transfer of Wayne Rooney. Wayne has signed a six year contract until 30 June 2010.

The fee payable to Everton is £20 million. Half is due now, with half due on 1 August 2005. In addition there are contingent payments to Everton over the next five years up to a maximum of £7 million, dependent on club success, the player renewing his contract and his appearances at international level. Of this sum, £3 million will be due to Everton provided Rooney remains registered to MU until 30th June 2007

Agents’ fees payable to Proactive Sports Management Limited in relation to both the acquisition of the player and negotiation of his personal terms totalled £1.5m. Of this sum, £1.0m is guaranteed, of which £0.5m is payable immediately and the balance over the following 5 years in equal instalments. The remaining £0.5m will be paid in 5 equal instalments over the duration of Rooney’s contract provided he remains registered to MU at the due dates for payment.

Wayne Rooney said: “It was a tough decision to leave Everton, the club I’ve supported and played for all my life, but I’m excited to be joining a club as big as Manchester United. I feel this can only improve my career, playing with top players in top competitions like the Champions League and I can’t wait to meet up with the team”

Sir Alex Ferguson said: “I am very excited, I think we have got the best young player this country has seen in the past 30 years. Everyone is delighted by this signing”.

David Gill, Chief Executive of Manchester United PLC, said: “We are delighted to have reached an agreement for Wayne. He will be a tremendous asset to Manchester United and undoubtedly has a bright future ahead of him”.

Totally agreed abt A.Cole being sucks.... He's really a "missing" scorer. Always missed important goals. Or missed the goal in a super idiotic way.


I think Everton's fans are wrong. What's wrong becoming a DEVIL? At least, we are the more superior team/club than them @ the last 10 years. We are one of the top power house. They should proud that we are buying W.Rooney instead of some other power house players. Moreover, we help them to solve their $$$ problems until they really purchased by some billionaire or millionaire.

Dun U guys agreed???=p

U mean their chairman or manager? ANyway, I never like D.Moyes. He used to compared W.Rooney as R.Giggs and he, himself as A.Ferguson. Just becos he wanna 2 "protect" W.Rooney from growing to become R.Giggs(like him never disturb by the fame and attention and becoming a better player) but seriously, only A.Ferguson and A.WEnger can did this to players lor. D.Moyes still FAR, FAR away sia... There's a chinese sentence proverb, "Bu Zhi Liang Li", is best used to describe D.Moyes. At least, Mourinho is good enuff to b one of the top YOUNG managers, but D.Moyes still far far away.

edit: and most important of all, D.Moyes is the least achieve Scottish managers of all. In fact, the worst!

quoted from tribalfootball.com

We're getting closer to United financially. We'll be very close by the time we move to the new stadium and neck-and-neck when we sell Highbury.

"There will be substantial transfer funds available to the manager.

"In the long term, Arsenal can compete for ANY player of ANY status. There is NO ONE we cannot afford.

"Arsene has always said he'd like to stay, we want him to stay, we've had discussions and we're sure he'll sign a new contract.

"These are exciting times for Arsenal on and off the pitch and I'm sure Arsene wants to be a part of that. Everything is now in place for him."

Ruud delight at Rooney deal


Ruud van Nistelrooy is excited by the prospect of linking up with £27m teenager Wayne Rooney at Manchester United after he moved from Everton.

He said of the 18-year-old: "Everyone knows Wayne is an amazing talent and the thought of him pulling on a United shirt is frightening.

"He proved himself at Euro 2004 and I don't know many clubs who wouldn't mind him in their side.

"He is an incredible player who has a huge future ahead of him."

Rooney has signed a six-year contract which will tie him to Old Trafford until 30 June 2010.

He will officially be unveiled at Old Trafford at 1300 BST on Wednesday.

And van Nistelrooy added: "To do what he has already done at just 18 years old is incredible.

"Anyone who has seen him play knows what a talent he is. It really excites me to think he will be playing at United.

"He will be a great asset to the club and to play with him will be fantastic."

Fergie's Rooney revelations

http://skysports.planetfootball.com/images/playerpics04_05/football/england/manutd/rooney_fergeson_gill.jpg

http://skysports.planetfootball.com/images/playerpics04_05/football/england/manutd/wayne_press.jpg

Wayne Rooney has been officially unveiled as a Manchester United player during a press conference at Old Trafford.

The England striker sat alongside Sir Alex Ferguson and David Gill in front of the media as the United manager declared his delight at snaring the Everton attacker.

Ferguson revealed that the deal would not have happened had Newcastle United not made their approach for the teenager, and confessed that he has wanted to sign the player since hearing of Rooney as a 14-year-old.

"He's 18 and could spend all his years as a professional at this club," said Ferguson. "Age-wise, it's a great signing but it's more than that.

"The potential he's shown, well I knew that years ago anyway, but the last two years has been phenomenal.

"I think it was a case that Manchester United could not afford to miss out on him.

"We're not exactly sure about his injury. He goes for another scan tomorrow and hopefully it'll be much clearer then. He's not far away - only two to three weeks. Hopefully he'll be doing some running, he did some training this morning, but we'll be better placed tomorrow.

"I think we've got a good reputation with players here. They are professionals and we look after them well. I don't see (handling Rooney) as a problem.

"It was some years ago when he played against our youth team that I got a call from our staff saying they'd seen a player and I should do something about it. But he didn't want to leave Everton and was too young anyway, but we showed interest even then, at 14.

"It's not been easy for the lad. I can understand the emotions from Everton. Quite rightly, they regard themselves as a big club. I do too, they are a great club with fantastic fans but Wayne rightly pointed out the opportunity to play European football and Everton, at the moment, don't do that.

"We also feel at this club we have big ambitions to do really well, all the time.

"It's a strange twist of fate. If Newcastle hadn't come in, probably he'd still be at Everton and wouldn't be here. Once we knew Everton were talking to another club, we had to do something.

"I didn't think he was available because I spoke to David Moyes at the end of the season and thought he wasn't for sale.

"I can see him playing in several positions. He is a total footballer. He can play anywhere - in midfield or anywhere up front. Perhaps we won't put him in the back four!"

ROONEY: I DON´T NEED ADVICE

Manchester United new boy Wayne Rooney has insisted he does not need the advice of his new team-mates on how to behave.

Rooney signed a £27million deal with the Old Trafford outfit on Tuesday to become Britain´s costliest teenage footballer.

The 18-year-old knows his move will only serve to intensify the media spotlight on him but, despite recent unsavoury revelations about his private life, he is confident he will cope. Rooney said: "As a professional I know myself. No-one has to tell me how to behave on or off the pitch. I know myself, so there is not much more they can tell me."

"He can play in midfield or up front, where he made a great impact at the European Championship. In that respect, I've an open mind but probably his best position is just behind the striker. There are options open to do a lot of things and he has the ability to beat men which is important if you're playing there."

In terms of skill, I'm sure Fergie can get the best out of Rooney but I'm more worry about his behaviour on the pitch, he since to lose his temper easily.

Ya, he really needs to curb his temper for his sake!

Now we have Smith and Rooney up front... 2 agressive players!

Rooney waiting on scan


Manchester United's new signing Wayne Rooney will have a scan on Thursday to determine when he will make his debut.

England striker Rooney, who on Tuesday moved from Everton to United in a £27m deal, picked up a foot injury against Portugal at Euro 2004 this summer.

A target for the 18-year-old may be the September 20 match against Liverpool.

But boss Sir Alex Ferguson said: "We do not know exactly when Wayne will be available. He goes for another scan today, then it will be much clearer."

Rooney, who has signed a six-year deal with United, is unlikely to be fit for the trip to Bolton on 11 September.

However, Ferguson added: "He is not far away. We think it is only a matter of two or three weeks because he has been doing some running and trained on Wednesday morning but we will be better placed to assess it on Thursday."


Rooney's Old Trafford striker partner will be Dutchman Ruud van Nistelrooy - himself a month away from full fitness following a hernia operation.

Van Nistelrooy has scored 110 goals in three seasons at Old Trafford and Rooney admitted that the Dutch star's form was one of the reasons he decided to leave his boyhood club Everton.

"Ruud is a top forward," stated Rooney. "You only have to look at his goalscoring record to look at that.

"Any player in the world would want to play alongside him. I cannot wait to get out there and play my first game."

Jonathan Spector does not feel he is ahead of schedule after breaking in to the Manchester United first team.


The teenage defender has started The Red Devils' last three matches and has looked assured at left back.

He has been handed his chance by United manager Sir Alex Ferguson due to a combination of injuries and suspension at the back.

The American starlet is happy to be involved in the team and brushed off any concerns about his spot in the side coming too early in his career.

"I always felt like I could play for the first team," Spector told Top Drawer Soccer.

"I didn't have any timetable for when it would be although I think it happened sooner than everyone expected.

"Everyone said I was way ahead of schedule but when I heard that I always thought to myself that I wasn't aware there was such a schedule.

"I just wanted to continue to work so that when the chance came I could do well."

Spector was thrust in to the team for his debut in last week's UEFA Champions League qualifier at home to Dinamo Bucharest.

He concedes he was taken by surprise by being selected by Ferguson and is thankful he did not have time to fully digest the manager's decision.

"They were just going through the team-talk and talking about what each player in the back four needed to do and I heard them say my name, 'Jonathan you need to tuck in and on attack, we want you to overlap on the outside of Cristiano Ronaldo'.

"I was thinking 'I finally get my first start, I want to show everyone what I can do'. "But then I thought 'I need to stay focused so I know what I have to do'. Everything happened so fast it didn't really have time to sink in until afterwards."

Unless there is someone who supplies good crosses from the flank..Ruud might suffer more goal drought..because he is more of a finisher,tat why so potent in the penalty box. Smith and Rooney are those who also enjoy dribbling or taking on defenders from outside the box....hence they are less likely to dependent on the flanks.

Just my 2cts worth of observation.

**** you Scolari, the poor lad is injured still want him to play. He need rest. :mad:


Portugal are demanding that Cristiano Ronaldo links up with the squad ahead of the World Cup qualifiers with Latvia and Estonia.

Luiz Felipe Scolari wants his best players available for the two international tests and, despite a weary looking Ronaldo being withdrawn during the Bank Holiday Monday draw with Everton, there is the prospect that the winger might figure in the games.

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson wanted to withdraw his teen talent due to a groin problem, and the Scot is very concerned with the physical demands being placed on the youngster.

After a starring role in Euro 2004, the former Sporting Lisbon prodigy represented his country in the Olympics and Ferguson is worried that Ronaldo will suffer from burn-out during the course of the season.

It has been reported that assistant manager Carlos Queiroz may even travel to Portugal to discuss the matter with Scolari, and bid to ease any tension between the two parties.

Ronaldo, being a young player, is probably always keen to play but he looked tired after dazzling moments of genius in both recent games against Blackburn and Everton.

United have already been besieged by injury problems this season with Ruud van Nistelrooy, Roy Keane and Wes Brown among those currently sidelined.

I think the damage is alreadi done to Cristiano Ronaldo. He looks jaded and I feel when his falling so often from the tackles is more due to fatigue then diving. His best performance was in EURO 2004. Now he just looks tired to me.

[Ronaldo7]

agree with you . time for fergie to give him a rest now after playing in euro2004 and the olympics . we need him fresh for the later part of the season

Remember the Tiago case, Mourinho say he was injured before the olympics and suddenly he is allowed to withdrew, when we say the same about Ronaldo, yet he is not allowed to, It's a bloody farce. :mad:
