Who Pairs Rooney Upfront?

... of course that's assuming Wayne Rooney joins Chelsea, which to me is a done deal by the way. It's one of those dilemmas you pray for as a coach and it's one of the benefits that comes with being a coach at a top club. You not only challenge for honours, medals and laurels every season, but you also get to make some decisions other not-so-lucky managers out there can only be jealous of. The fate of world-class footballers are in your hands and the whole world is watching and waiting to see how you will handle the situation. This is the case at Chelsea right now and it's the dilemma facing the Special One; the whole world is watching to know how he would pull this one off. With Rooney's arrival looking imminent, I guess the question on the lips of everyone at the Cobham training complex is who will pair Wayne Rooney upfront? It's a collective nightmare for the strikers at the Bridge. But that's if anyone would pair him there at all.

That remains the big question as there are some playing departments in the team which are not the way they should be, but if the worst comes to the worst, one or more players would have to look for another club in order to make room for any big summer signing that is to join the lads at the Cobhams training ground. This is what I will be looking at in this post.

Rooney To Chelsea?

A relationship that has increasingly become strained over the past seven months has now reached a point where it could be described as a state of no return. Wayne Rooney’s beleaguered relationship with his Manchester united employers seemingly reached a point of total breakdown today after it was reported that the former Old Trafford darling and fan favourite is angry and confused at Manager David Moyes' declaration that Rooney would still have to settle for a role as a backup to Robin van Persie. Rooney’s woes at Manchester United can be traced back to their champions league round of 16 second-leg cracker with a Jose Mourinho-tutored Real Madrid side at old Trafford which was billed at the time as the biggest match of the season for United.
