Ronaldo left in good terms. He has already won everything here. Madrid was the club he supported since his boyhood days. He also had no issues with Sir Alex and are still in speaking terms until today. He wanted to leave after the UCL Finals 2008 but I guess Sir Alex advised him to stay for at least 1 more season in order to get the best deal with Madrid. In a way.. he left in good terms.

As for Rooney................ If he really leaves. He won't be forgiven. First, he said he wanted to stay until the rest of his career. Second, he was the one who screwed up with his private life. Third, he infuriated Sir Alex.. if you mess around with the gaffer.. as Becks, Stam, Ruud, Ince, Kanchelskis, Keano...

Really disappointed to see this. The gaffer clearly looks gutted.. never have we seen him admitted as early as this... even before the season has ended.. This is a sign of something not right happening behind the scene...

I've never seen Sir Alex so gutted about a player...

Oh why Rooney.......... he was like a father figure for you. Even Ronaldo thought as well...

There must be a genuine reason....

He's never done this.. Even during his rows with Becks, Stam, Ruud, Keano, Kanchelskis....

I sense that he is trying to advise Wayne in a way to think again before leaving.... Sir Alex was asked if the door is still open for Rooney, he instantly said "of course"...

I dunno.. maybe it's a lost hope... I don't want to hope too much. But what I hope is, is that we are able to move on properly.. this club is based on tradition as what Sir Alex said.. even during Sir Matt's day. No player is bigger than the club. Period.

But it is very strange... Sir alex openly admitting this while the footnall season still is still going on....

I sense that Sir Alex wants Rooney to stay, more than Rooney wanting to leave. I dunno, why the hell is Wayne doing this. Must be a reason.. he must be upset for something... But again, it is sad seeing how gutted Sir Alex was..

I feel strange that Sir Alex suddenly opens this in the air while the season is still on. Normally he would deny things first and if it's a confirmed thing.. you will either see the player say bye bye during the end of season (Becks, Ruud, Kanchelskis case) or bye bye instantly without Fergie acknowledge anything during the season is still on (Stam left straight away to lazio after 2 matches, Keano left in January transfer)

Could be true........... strange that Sir Alex denied having any issues with Wayne. It could be true, which is why Sir Alex talked about it suddenly in the public

More or less..

If Wayne does go.. this will be the most disappointing one.. not because he is irreplaceable.. but because of seeing how sad Sir Alex is.. If he does go, I'm pretty sure it will be the most painful one for Sir Alex.

You screwed up Wayne in your public life. Smoking fag and urinating at the wall... then your infidelity with those 2 tarts... Damn... And you're doing this. You wanna f**k up again and leave?

Man.. all my Man United jerseys with ROONEY's name.. dunno what to do with them if he really leaves.. I was almost going to place his name onto my current new man utd home/away shirt.
