Rooney has finally submitted his transfer request (written in crayola by all accounts)
We have also submitted our final offer of ï¿½40mill for Fab which will only be accepted if Chelsea agree Luiz sale to Barca which Chelsea will only sanction if we agree to sale of Rooney. fun and games ahead for Mr Moyes

Indeed he will put in a transfer request now is when we need to play hardball, it appears he wants a chelsea move

We should hold out for over 40m and get a replacement before letting him go last day of transfers. Try for Mata not much chance of that though. Would even be worth a punt for Lewi in my mind and if no replacement don't let him leave

So you are saying barca want to replace an attacking midfielder with a centre half and chelsea will replace a CB with a striker?

I am saying we need cesc chelsea need Rooney and Barca need a centre half they are not like for like swaps merely square pegs in square holes each team get what they need not direct replacements
