I don't give Man U much of a chance this year. Moyes replaced the whole of the backroom team with that from Everton. That means that the successful training methods that have stood the test of time have now been reduced to that of a 6th spot premier league position.
Mourinho doesn't need Rooney. He can get along just fine without that baggage. So I suspect that he is once again playing his mind games.
As for Suarez: let's not forget that Kenny lost his job primarily for backing Suarez. It was not such a welcome hit with the big boys at Liverpool when Kenny stood by his player. So am a bit surprised that Rodgers should try to pretend that Suarez should show loyalty to the club.
But Bale might turn out to be the talk of the town if he decides to pick the € over the £. It has been a very rocky road for high flying and gifted British players switching to the continent. Few have succeeded, and a lot more have failed. Alarmingly so even. And joining a team full of superstars will more than likely make him a bench filler.
