So mourhino has now announced to the press that Chelsea will make a third bid for Rooney after the United Chelsea game.
Talk about mind games, when was the last time a manager came out and said his team would bid for a player next week.
Not that he is trying to unsettle the player or more importantly the club

Huge mind games from Mourhino, the whole saga has been in my mind. I don't see Wayne leaving, I can see a great performance from him against Chelsea on Monday.

Quite recently we announced that we'd be bidding for Fabregas again!

Spot on jred. He said its for ethical reasons but who would buy that. If its ethical Jose is after he wouldn't have said anything.

If I was David Moyes I would just turn around and say " look we've rejected two bids already as we're not interested in selling Wayne, and we don't want any of Mourinhos cast offs he keeps offering us". Two can play mind games, the difference is Mourinho may unsettle one of our players, if David says that he could potentially unsettle several of Chelseas players.

Jred, I've mentioned this a few times. Ferguson at his worst did not go to that length. But mourinho is a master at that, the press still love him, as does abramovich at the moment.
I said before that Moyes should come out and say how much we admire Mata, Hazard.
Mourinho is blatantly tapping up Rooney. I have no doubt we will sell him to Chelsea, and mourinho would have got what he wanted.
I don't know Moyes very well, but he doesn't seem the sort to hit back, he seems to take it on the chin. I think we need a bit more ba.ls than that if you are the united manager.

Moyes silence in this mourinho drama is critical as he is not Fergie.
However our performance and a win on Monday shall remind Mr.Jose what got him fired him in the first place.

I would not worry about Chelsea and Mourinho going by last nights performance. His honeymoon period will come to an end. The messiah with the magic wand will be in no different boat than his predecessors. Remeber they started the season last year with 6 or 7 straight wins or something like that and we missed the opportunity to boot them out of cl footbal with SAF lousy team selection and tactics at home.

A win on Monday will shut a lot of people up and hopefully we finish the transfer window with a number of great signings and then let's see who is mouthing off. I would rather we do our talking on the pitch and City are the team to beat for the umpteen's time.
