Indeed it is, as TonyAV pointed out on the fixture thread We have to play them sometime and why not throw Moyes in at the deep end as it were, he does have the League Champions at his disposal.
We should be enjoying the wealth of other sports like: Cricket, Golf, Rugby and Tennis.. in my case pretending to be entertained. Sorry guys but at least in JJ's sport there's something to look at ;-)
Not sure about Rooney - seems to be conflicting reports - did he really ask for a transfer as Sir Alex says? He denies it
Is he seen as surplus to requirements and if so it must mean plans are being made to bring more players in
I would love Ronaldo to return but I doubt very much that is ever going to happen
If Rooney is sold I would prefer it to be PSG or another club in Europe
He would be a good buy for Arsenal but don't like to see ex players doing well against us
I didn't know that Rooney claims that he didn't ask for a transfer. (as you say conflicting reports) my feeling on want-away players remains the same, if said player wants to leave ... let him go.
As for ex players against us... well for all his trouble Tevez did well for us, if Rooney is to be sold then agree much prefer it to be to a European team.
To Aresenal though... stranger things have happened, who'd have thought we'd bag RVP.
I am just delighted that Stoke's opening game is away - as indeed are we on holiday. This prevents the present Mrs Hughes, season ticket holder and rabid supporter or said club for forty-plus years, from spending at least one day, if not more, moaning about not being there!
