Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson admits they were beaten to the punch by Everton when they first became aware of Wayne Rooney.
Ferguson will be hoping for a major contribution from Rooney today against Arsenal, having been starved of action this season but is no doubt relishing the prospect of facing the side he scored his first Premiership goal against as a raw 16-year-old back in 2002.
"I remember it well," said the United boss.
"But we knew all about Wayne long before then. We tried to get him when he was 14. He might have cost us 26 bob then. He ended up costing us ?26million."
waste money so sad![]()
yeah true, never thought of thatOriginally posted by ghimpheng:you don't think it is sad ? u mean it is not a pity that they could't get rooney earlier ? o okay I was not being mean or watever but if man utd had did that 5 years ago they could have save the 26 million pounds and use it on other area
not offense pal
it was a Controversy as both clubs said that they had signed John Obi Mikel and I am glad that chelsea was ruled to be allowed to sign Obi Mikel Over Man Utd as Mikel State that he was force/pressurize to sign the man utd contractOriginally posted by zocoss:Its the same what... sometimes it all depends on luck also.
Chelsea could have got John Obi mikel for lesser than $2m when he was there for a try with the club but as they were slow, Man u sign him for $2m... Next thing chelsea had to pay $16m for him and Man u smile happily to the bank... What a difference a few days make, One week he was value at $2m the next $16m.
