Madness in Manchester as Rooney signs New United contract

If you have burned your Rooney shirts already, it may not be a good idea to read this. Manchester United and Sir Alex Ferguson have persuaded the "adamant" Wayne Rooney to stay at Manchester United for another half-decade, as the striker performed an incredible u-turn to decide to sign a new 5 year contract at the Old Trafford club.

When a statement from Rooney was released earlier in the week suggesting that he wanted to be going forward and winning trophies, whilst claiming that the current players were not really good enough to do so, it seemed certain that he would be leaving. Even the mighty Sir Alex Ferguson whom Rooney incidentally called a "genius" in his statement, admitted that the player was adamant that he wanted out.

How then, can only a couple of days later, he completely change his mind, and decide to stay, after causing so much upset in the red half of Manchester? Sir Alex Ferguson left the door open to Rooney, even when the revelations about his future emerged. Simply because he is (or can be) too good for United to lose.

Rooney, who celebrates his 25th birthday on Sunday, said:

"I'm delighted to sign another deal at United.

"In the last couple of days, I've talked to the manager and the owners and they've convinced me this is where I belong. I said on Wednesday the manager's a genius and it's his belief and support that have convinced me to stay.

"I'm signing a new deal in the absolute belief that the management, coaching staff, board and owners are totally committed to making sure United maintains its proud winning history - which is the reason I joined the club in the first place.

"I'm sure the fans over the last week have felt let down by what they've read and seen. But my position was from concern over the future. The fans have been brilliant with me since I arrived and it's up to me through my performances to win them over again."

Manchester United's only hope now, is that he can replicate the truly brilliant form of last season, and forget about his awful recent performance in the World Cup and the Premier League.

Manchester United and Liverpool aim for Spanish Striker

It could soon be Fernando Torres and Fernando Llorente paired up-front on the Liverpool team sheet - if rumours are to be believed. The 25 year old Spanish international recently broke Scottish hearts with a winner for Spain in a Euro 2012 qualifier, and he could soon be setting the Premier League on fire alongside his Spanish team-mate Fernando Torres.

Under new ownership, Liverpool are beginning in their new generation, with investment in players high on the list of Liverpool's priorities. The striker currently plays at Athletico Bilbao, and they will looking for around £17 million for their star striker. This seems a realistic sum for Liverpool's new owners to afford, as they admit themselves that Liverpool need a lot of work.

Llorente would be a great signing for Liverpool. He stands at 6 foot 5 inches tall, and therefore has a very physical, enforcing presence in he box. He is a good header of the ball, and a good finisher. He already has a connection with Fernando Torres in that they are both Spanish, so it would be very interesting to see how a partnership like this does. No doubt Liverpool are in dire need of an out and out striker - Llorente fits the bill.

However, Liverpool fans my ask the question - why get a big striker when the delivery is not present thanks to the lack of actual wingers? Benayoun and Reira have come and gone without great success. Ryan Babel and Joe Cole are the biggest names who could play on the wing for Liverpool, but they both feel that their best position is down the centre supporting the striker. Without a good delivery into the box, the two Fernando's (if the deal materialises) could become very frustrated due to the lack of service. Yet another problem for Hodgson to solve.

Alternatively, it could be Wayne Rooney Dimitar Berbatov and Fernando Llorente paired up on the Manchester United team sheet, with Ferguson looking or a new striker to replace Rooney due to his inevitable departure from Manchester United. However, be wary United fans, as Manchester United will be "connected to", "interested in" or "monitering" every striker who even slightly hints that they could leave their club at some point in the future. Benzema, Suarez, Aguero, Forlan, Kaka, Sneijder among others (including Fernado Torres!) have already been named as possible players that could in some way fill the void of Wayne Rooney - and he hasn't even left yet.
