Goodbye My Rooney...Goodbye My friend?

The common joke made about northerners in England is that they don't speak English  The different accents in the north may leave you thinking you are not in England but I in particular love it. One of the most famous is the scouse accent. In some interviews you may have heard Steven Gerrard or Jamie Carragher speak in that wonderful accent that tends to confuse journalists more than anything. Steven Gerrard once admitted that when he and other liverpool lads speak in the England dressing room,some of their team-mates don't get it. Imagine that. The scouser in question now is Wayne Rooney,wonderfully gifted footballer,plays for Manchester united and arguably one of the best talents in the country. But as the  common joke runs about the northerners,if Wayne Rooney can't speak English his own language,how is he going to cope with french? Rumors of him leaving for a French side have gained momentum, french side Paris Saint-German-PSG

The biggest reality show on TV related to football comes during the transfer window and before the next one opens in the summer,stories have began to come out to add fuel to the drama that usually goes with that period. PSG have reportedly shown interest in Wayne Rooney and there are rumors in the united camp indicating that Rooney hasn't been exactly happy. The player hasn't said anything himself but we all know everyone has a price and Manchester United firmly believes,no man is bigger than the club. The last time Wayne  was said to leave Manchester  United ,he actually came out to say it before changing his mind and admitting it was a mistake on his part. Presently, nothing has been said but there usually is no smoke without fire.

If Rooney does leave United,he should leave with his head held high,he would have had 7 years with the red devils,winning 2 carling cups,4 premier league titles,1 champions league,1 super cup,1 club cup and of course personal trophies. He is still considered a very important player to the team and continues to show passion for the game even if he has been used in different positions over the years. The  fans love him and even after he said he wanted to leave, United penned Rooney to a new contract reportedly worth £200 000 a week. Rooney was blessed at a young age to be able to play among the best in the world and establish himself as one of the best.

If Rooney does stay at united,it will be good news to the fans as he would dedicate the peak of his career to the red devils,joining the likes of Rio Ferdinand,Giggs,Scholes in staying way over a decade in the red side of Manchester. He will need to understand though that he is a player valued as a game changer,a player that should stand above all when the chips are down and should understand that he has set a standard that he shouldn't fall below.He has 141 goals in 273 games for united.

As it stands now,Rooney has two years left on his contract, come the end of the season United will be looking to get him to extend his contract. If he wants to leave,he should boldly say it,so life-after-Rooney can begin and united isn't dragged into the drama of the transfer window. Regrettably coming to a television near you,this summer.....what will Wayne Rooney do?..tune in...
