China offers 27 million pounds to MANu For Rooney
http://www.theguardian.com/football/2016/feb/19/football-transfer-rumours-wayne-rooney-to-join-shanghai-shenhua
This amounts to 500,000 pounds per week. Keep in mind that you can easily live in South Korea and play for a club in Shangai. If manU fails to make the Champions league then player wages will be cut by 25 percent as well. China is distorting world football
>>65677632
manu should accept iff they have any sense but i doubt rooney would go to china
>>65677632
Best thing that could happen to ManU atm.
>>65677632
I'd take 27 mil for this regressing balding fuck any day. He can play for Manure until this year, then play at his final Euro and then be shipped to China.
>>65677632
Do they want him as a footballer, or as a plumber?
>>65677665
Can someone explain this plumber meme?
>>65677646
don't want him at the Euros desu, not if he's keeping Vardy or Kane out of the team, plus his record at major tournaments is absolutely abysmal
>>65677667
In Denmark, professional footballers do not earn enough money to make it their fulltime job, so they often have real jobs on the side and only play football on training days and matchdays.
Most of the team they lost to yesterday, were in fact, full time plumbers
>>65677667
Manure lost to a Danish side formed in 1999 that had won 1 in their last 10 games and hadn't played a competitive game for two months.
As such they're seen to be an amateur side that consists of full time plumbers
>>65677681
Their goalkeeper is a busdriver
we should accept it and spend the transfer money + his gigantic wage on someone useful (cleaning staff for example)
I doubt he'd want to go to China though
>>65677667
Ever watch the 300 movie? Imagine the Spartans losing to the part time fighters from Athens that were farmers and sword smiths during the day
>>65677702
He better buy a flat in South Korea AKA little USA and deal with it
>can easily live in South Korea
Do Americans seriously believe that China is some sort of movie like totalitarian communist police state where everyone has to smile and work hard or else the commissars will break down your door and execute you in front of your family?
sadly this will never happen
>>65677711
Bruh, it's not western enough for big players. South Korea or Hong Kong is way more comfy for someone from the 1st world that speaks English.
>>65677667
Another dumb forced meme. /sp/astics think that every team that isn't owned by a billionaire sugar daddy is automatically an amateur club whose players have other full-time jobs, while it's only true for 1st tier teams from Andorra, Luxembourg and such, not Denmark.
>>65677711
Well Hong Kong is pretty based.
You're welcome China.
>上海申花 上海神话 上海申华
>>65677761
>Demba Ba
>>65677729
What do you mean not western enough?
I doubt he is going there for the culture if he is earning 500k a week
You forget that east asians all hate each other so living in South Korea and playing/training in Shanghai would be a huge slap in the face to the club's owners/fans as well as a logistical nightmare
>>65677761
>there are people who unironically think that overpaying for players like Guarin, Ba and Martins will allow China to build a league on par with European ones
>>65677782
Bruh, it's just 450 miles away
>>65677788
It won't be long before they start buying potential world class players. Ten years from now all the best players will be playing in China.
>>65677711
Government can't do shit to my family or ojisaytydfjdw
>>65677798
RARE FLAG
people said the same about arab clubs a few years ago
no one wants to play in fuckign china, no matter how much money they offer. at best it'll become a retirement home like MLS
>>65677809
But Arab clubs only targeted has beens and retirement tier players.
>>65677792
1hr and 20min flight, not including time getting to the airport and check in, both ways
You could easily spend 5-6 hours of your day getting to and from work
>>65677818
because that's literally the only players they can attract
what makes china any difference? if anything their leagues are even worse quality wise.
>>65677809
This
>China is distorting world football
My dick is distorting your mum's pussy
>>65677834
China already cucked a club of Liverpool's stature, something the Arabs could never achieve.
>>65677832
Have you ever heard of a charter jet?
>>65677796
No player that has any chance to be world class would go to China
>>65677796
they won't, to build something more than a meme league with a few 2nd rate "stars" on each team you need to actually have a youth academy system and any kind of prestige. China doesn't have either and won't have it for a long time. Even the financial advantage isn't that pronounced, the truly top players can earn similar wages at Barcelona/Madrid/United etc to the ones offered in China
>>65677850
remember when Anzhi Mahachkala bought Willian for 40m and people acted like it was some sort of game changer?
>>65677850
how? buying some 30 year old washed up striker? let me know when some genuine prospect in their early 20s goes to china to develop their career. pro tip: it'll never happen
>>65677856
so you save maybe 45 minute checking in?
as if you wouldnt just stay in a penthouse in shanghai
>>65677796
You're only allowed 4 non-Chinese players 1 of which has to be Asian in China. Why does this need to be explained in every thread?
I do find it funny how butthurt Europeans are getting over South Americans moving there though. Saying they're not loyal and have no ambition and so on as if non European players are in Europe for any reason other than money. What do they give a shit where it comes from?

That's mid heading into late 20's chap, plus he's not that good. Playing for WAXTAP in a babby league doesn't mean you are good.
>>65677711
Of course not, but it is a pretty restrictive place to live, and there's fuck all going on.
>>65677809
It'll be worse than MLS because it doesn't seem like China is putting money into youth academies.
Of course if China wants to buy the wash ups and frauds I say let them
>>65677761
>obafemi martins
he's still alive?
>>65677668
b-but don't you remember Euro2004, anon?
United would be stupid to not listen to offers for Rooney
so they won't, they're a stupid joke of a club
>full time plumbers
>>65677632
who would want to live in shanghai?
>>65677632
Send him to us instead
>>65678351
He was hanging out in Seattle.
>>65678351
Wasn't he in the mls
>>65677883
>unironically responding to Americans
you fucked up
>>65677798
A man had to be detained for the sake of this joke
>>65678351
He was playing here in mls for a while, doing quite good too
Not only would I take their offer, I would embrace it.
I would go there learn Mandarin, make friends and truly embrace the culture. It would be a great learning curve and amazing experience.
I don't know why you guys immediately think about the downsides. Think about all the positives you would get out of not just earning all the money but totally adopting a new way of life, culture etc. It would be an adventure.
>>65677796
No, they won't
Have a read of this http://www.espnfc.com.au/soccer-transfers/story/2803340/tim-cahill-critical-of-crazy-chinese-super-league-spending
It's Tim Cahill, who just finished up playing in China, explaining why China is a massive fucking shithole.
Chinese people are abysmal "athletes". Their national team is about to get knocked out of qualifying for the 2018 World Cup by HONG KONG.
>LITERALLY AND UNIRONICALLY GETTING BTFO'D BY THEIR OWN MEME.
They can't even cut it in Asian soccer. Do you have any idea how shit Asian soccer is? Australia is the champions of it. That's how shit it is.
>>65678418
Yeah but this is rooney were talking about m8, think he'd rather just retire a red devil and enjoy the simpler things in life
>>65678431
>think he'd rather just retire a red devil
he wont be given that option
its MLS or China for old Wayne im afraid
>>65677632
>Keep in mind that you can easily live in South Korea and play for a club in Shangai.
Why? That's like saying the team is in Manhattan, but you can easily live in New Jersey! I mean, yeah you could, but why would you want to? Shanghai is one of the most hyper-modern, decadent cities to live in in the world.
>>65678431
>think he'd rather just retire a red devil
not even gerrard or lampard could achieve this, rooney definitely can't
>>65678418
plus he could get some gook punani which is a major bonus
>>65677632
>you can easily live in South Korea
Live in Shanghai for 1/3 of that, like a pimp
DROWNING in Chinese poontang.
>>65678489
nah, asian people age badly so he wont want any of the grannies over their
>>65678424
Tim's just salty because they sacked him off
>>65678513
no worse than Britbong men iirc.
In his case, u don't marry em, u rent em by the weekend or even a week
>>65678424
>Chinese people are abysmal "athletes"
their olympic medal haul disagrees with you shane. they grow all their athletes from test tubes and raise them in special olympic training pods and kill the ones that don't look like turning into world champions. but that's all for other sports, as soon as they start growing humans for football purposes they'll be a football superpower tbph
>>65678431
>enjoy the simpler things in life
in the night garden, stickle bricks, colouring in
>>65677632
No chance he leaves. Unfortunately for Manure he already makes so much money from them and Nike that it wouldn't make sense to move to China even for a higher salary when he can captain Manure and play in the CL (never mind)
>>65677632
I would literally drive him myself to the airport if I supported manure
3 years 100 million pounds? I hope rooney likes chinese food!
Ship him off , this is for the good of the English NT as well
This >>65678894 and as fast as possible.
I'd mail him his clothes.
>>65677674
That's pretty heavy. Full time pro footballers beaten by a bunch of plumbers!
Would you go to china if you already had more money than you could ever spend?
>>65682985
Yes, he's almost done as a top level footballer anyway, living in China can be an interesting experience and there is never such a thing as having too much money
>>65677632
>live in South Korea and play for a club in Shangai
living in Shanghai with that kind of money would be absolutely based. Shanghai is awesome
>>65682985
>implying footballers have more money than they can spend
>having zero imagination
>>65677674
The average wage of that team was £28k a week.
So that's about £1.5 million per year.
>GTFO EVERTON
SHITE CHAIRMAN
>>65677632
pull the trigger man utd
United won't do it unless they have a replacement megastar.
Their sponsors will not accept Chris Smalling as the face of Man Utd.
No thanks but we'll give you Valencia for £30 million.
>>65683124
Why not just have a JF like every other big club?
>>65677761
>obafemi martins
what the actual fuck isn't he like 60 years old by now?
>>65683129
Didn't realise Valencia was still there desu
Does young still play? Lad was quality last season
>>65677632
Utter bullshit. Comes from Woodward saying in his meeting with shareholders that China could be a good market for Man Utd to sell to. Literally all.
>>65677837
>it's an israel brings his a-game epsiode
>>65683133
This is why they keep getting linked with Nerman and Donaldo. They need a megast-
Oh shit

No you can't. Is he going to take a private jet to work every day? It's a 2 hour flight each way from Seoul to Shanghai. Are they building a Hyperloop under the Yellow Sea that we don't know about?

Mainland China is a complete shithole especially the rural part which is a complete shame because when I was there it had such beautiful landscape only to look to the left or right and see a industrial size building polluting the river to yellow or dark blue .
Hong Kong and other territories are actually not that bad especially Hong Kong .
If United have any sense they will offload Rooney now before he is literally too shit to even be in the first team squad.
>Reminder Ramires went to China for £25m

The PRC would be proud of this shilling for literally nothing, dong
>>65684645
Nigger, I lived in Shanghai for 14 months. It is by the sea so most of the pollution doesn't stay as smog. Beijing and Guangzhou are both fucking disgusting, Shanghai is only sometimes nasty.
