Rooney: Liverpool can win the title.

"Wayne Rooney has conceded that arch rivals Liverpool have re-emerged as serious challengers for Manchester United's Barclays Premier League crown under Kenny Dalglish. The boyhood Everton fan believes Dalglish's 'buy British' policy has established the Anfield club as a major force once again following the acrimonious end to Rafa Benitez's spell in charge and Roy Hodgson's ill-fated reign. Three and easy: Rooney scored a quick-fire hat-trick in United's 7-0 win over Seattle Sounders 'Liverpool will challenge (for the title) this time,' said Rooney. 'They've made some really good signings under Kenny Dalglish, British players, and I'm sure they will try harder than they've ever done, fighting to be up there. 'They will think they have a chance of winning the title. The main threat is going to be from Chelsea, Liverpool , Arsenal and Manchester City. One of them, plus us, will be fighting for the title.' Rooney was speaking after scoring a 21-minute hat-trick in United's 7-0 win over Seattle Sounders in the early hours of yesterday. It completed a happy return to the Pacific North West for the England striker who was despatched here in very different circumstances last November to regain fitness at Nike headquarters in Oregon away from the glare of publicity and fall-out from a contract crisis that took him to the brink of leaving Old Trafford. Fast forward eight months and Rooney's rehabilitation would appear to be complete. Having helped United regain the title and reach the Champions League final - scoring in the defeat by Barcelona at Wembley - few would argue that his importance to the club is greater than ever. And Sir Alex Ferguson's success in deploying the Englandstriker in a deeper role has opened up possibilities for Rooney, who has set his sights on overtaking Barcelona's Lionel Messi as the top No 10 in the world. 'That's where I like playing most,' said Rooney. 'It's where I finished last season and I was really enjoying it because I think it's a position that suits me. Messi is a great player and rightly World Player of the Year. I think, not just for me but for every footballer, that's the target you want to try to get to. Hopefully I can do that.' On the ball: Nani impressed again for United against the American side Michael Owen, Mame Biram Diouf, Park Ji-sung and Gabriel Obertan also scored yesterday in front of a 67,000 crowd at Seattle's CenturyLink Field while Portugal winger Nani impressed again. And Ferguson reassured the 24-year-old over his future at the club despite the signing of Ashley Young for ?16million. He said: 'Nani was unlucky not to be picked for the (Champions League) final. He did really well the whole season but Antonio Valencia came back and his form was so good it was difficult to leave him out of the team. (Nani) will be challenging next season and play a lot of games.' All set: De Gea is set to be handed his debut in Chicago on Saturday night Ferguson will give David De Gea his debut in Chicago tomorrow but admitted the position of goalkeeper remains an 'open door', with both Anders Lindegaard and Ben Amos impressing on tour. De Gea's ?17.8m transfer from Atletico Madrid marks him out as the obvious choice to succeed Edwin van der Sar but there are concerns in the short term over the 20-year-old Spaniard's lack of experience in the Premier League and command of English. Ferguson said: 'David De Gea will be the main choice, but we will have to see how he settles.'  Decision to quit Aston Villa was a 'no-brainer' says Man United new boy Young Seattle Sounders 0 Man United 7: Rooney bags hat-trick in Red Devils rout Macheda vows to make his mark at United after two-year struggle since dramatic debutShow us the money!

Even Rooney says we can win the league. Ferguson said the same thing last season.
Rooney hates us but admits we can win it. What astonishes me is that us, the fans don't think we'll can win the league saying it will take 3-4 years to win the league. BUT WHY can't we win it this season.

In 2/3 years the league will get tougher. Our squad is very strong, I've never seen a Liverpool squad with so much quality and depth(I'm young ).
A team with Reina, Agger(a fit), Gerrard(a fit one), Johnson, Aquilani, Mereiles, Lucas, Suarez, Carroll, Downing, Adam and maybe a fit Cole can win the league.

We have more quality on the bench than any other team except Man City. Arsenal is getting weaker(if they sell), Chelsea is full of old players(but good).

I admit with a marquee signing it is easier to win but at the moment we need to sell...

The question is why we cannot win the title (based on squads)?

Have you thought about paragraphs?

Who cares what Rooney thinks? Bitter Bluenosed gobs***e.

Is the phrase 'Rooney thinks' an oxymoron ?

F**k off rooney you ugly pr**k

f**k off rooney you ugly pr**k

yeah enit mate he's that ugly even Cillet won't Bang him lmao

Is the phrase 'Rooney thinks' an oxymoron ?

this means a lot coming from such a fountain of knowledge

we're in a rebuilding process, we can't be expected to win the league straight away

man city needed a season to settle after a big shake-up, now look at them

i'd be happy with 4th as i'm sure many other fans would be

Clearly showing he knows F**k all. Can?... Will

Who really gives a sh*t what Rooney has to say? He can put his opinions up where the sun don't shine.

A) He's a c**t
B) He's a c**t with bad judgement.

We WILL win the League.

We are serious contenders. Mind games already from the mancs?

Don't give a doogle what this tosspot thinks.

We are serious contenders. Mind games already from the mancs?

Who gives a F**k?
He's a F***ing bell end anyway.

Oh shut up Wayne.

First Fergie, now him.

Who honestly gives a flying F**k what either of them think?

Oh shut up Wayne.

First Fergie, now him.

Who honestly gives a flying f**k what either of them think?

It's July and already the mind games have started. What was that Kenny said back in January about him and Fergie being long out of short trousers ?  Kenny will ignore these tw**s completely.

They must've tinkered with his brain when they did the the hair transplant. He was never this smart.

Have you thought about paragraphs?

To be fair Rooney probably thinks that's when you get dragged by a boat with a parachute.

I don't need Shrek to tell me what I already know. Kenny knows exactly what it takes to win the title and he won't respond by saying that we can't.

Who gives a F**k what you think Rooney?!

nope, i'd say most fans now think we are title contenders. before the signings i'd have said no, but not anymore

I'm not sure about that, Ozi. I personally think we can challenge this year but looking at other threads, there are PLENTY of posters who think we'll make top 4 at best.

Don't really care what Rooney has to say.

We still need a LB & CB.

Next week Wayne Rooney will also be stating the obvious with an exclusive ''the Earth is indeed round'' bombshell. 

Rooney thinks?

Now that is a major advancement in medicine.

i didn't look at the threads tbh, i'm surprised that this is the case, msot of my mates are as optimistic as me.

we do indeed need a cb, lb isn't as concerning to me. nevertheless, even with our current squad i think we're one of the faves. but then, i'm forever optimistic

Thanks Wayne! What a nice bloke!

Now F**k off & leave us too it

Shut up you blue sh*te serial granny shagging manc! the mind games wont work on kenny as he is the master in that art just ask old whiskey nose.

Thanks Shrek...wasn't aware of that. Must be his new hair plugs that have allowed him to reach that amazing conclusion.

Is he trying to tell us something we didn't already know ?
As for Scumchester Being title contenders, well I can't see that with an in experienced goalie between the sticks, I predict here and now they'll concede more League goals next season than last !

You can't see the current champions being contenders? I hope you're right but that's just daft to say even if by some freak occurrence you are.

Sure we can win the title, but it will be incredibly tough, because it will be between 5-6 teams this season, depending on Tottenham's (in)ability to keep Modric and solve their issue with strikers.

We will have a good chance if we bring in a few more players and fill the cracks. It's going to be interesting season, one which I'm really looking forward to.

From what ive seen, De Gea is a great goalie and i think that he can step into Van der Sar boots.

Out of curiosity which English title winning side has had the youngest goalkeeper ? 

Wayne Rooney could say Liverpool FC will be the first ever sporting institution to build and send it's own man piloted rocket to Mars and I still wouldn't give two shits about what he or any Man Utd related individual says.

That f**king baconface trained him well in how to play the mind games.

Who cares what that f**ker has to say, in any rate.

We already know thanks Wayne.

Exactly right. Basically Whiskeybonce is aware that expectations at Liverpool are low for a change so he's trying to raise them to get more pressure on us.

He never changes the horrible ****

I mean really, who believes Rooney ever had an original thought that could be put into a sentence.

What about 'oy Granny, fancy a shag ?' !

F***ing hell a talking monkey, whatever next. The day shrek strings a sentence together, then we better worry, but as for now, F**k off granny shagger.

First he said he totally hated Liverpool FC...and we f**ked them.
Now he said we can win title...and still we f**k them.

well Wayne I think you'll kick 12 goals max

What about 'oy Granny, fancy a shag ?' !

In fairness you don't have to use words when you're paying for it.

Poor Shrek. At the bottom of pond life .
Only thing worse than a Bitter is a Manc.  

F**k off Rooney.

Do you know, in a funny sort of way he is right, and this is why, come the end of Jan,it will be a 3 horse race, Us, Chavs and Scum, Spuds have no f***in chance, they will be back to their normal selves as the nearly men, and i mean nearly top 4,
 Arse will depend once again on the loyalty of Fabregas, if he goes(and i think its imminent) Nasri will too, they will struggle to make the top 5, that leaves Citeh,
 i'm on the fence atm, will they be better than last season ? more than likely, but so will we be, they had a steady season where we only took part for half but i believe we can do them over home and away, also they will lose more than we will, we are hungrier, have a better balance, + we have Kenny the master tactician, against Mancicni, who has a dressing room full of egotistical money grabbing cock sucking mother fuckers, who dont really care for the club and who will quite happily sit on the bench for the dollar, if you want it will come down to who wants it more, and i think our players will want it more than theirs,
 then there is the other two, Chavs are rebuilding like us, different manager with different ideas, a different way of playing, cant count them out, not with the players they have and who they want to bring in (Modric, L-ukalele whatever his name is) they will be dangerous, strong and very capable,
and of course we have Manu-re, last season was a weird one, they seem to just stroll thru it without too much trouble, we were never a threat, Chavs started well faded got better and faded again, Spuds flattered to deceive and couldn't handle both the EPL and CL and in the end were found out, Citeh's bark was worse than their bite, and the Arse bottled it yet again,

So the shagger of grannies has a point, just like one his friends knitting needles, its sharp with no real penetration, he has obviously indulged in some pillow talk at his local nursing home, to cum up with this piece of grey hair- brained notion,  do yourself a favour Wayne, keep your fat ugly f***in mug out of it, and take your tongue out of Fergies arse, but of course you cant, he's a pensioner too.

Manure to next win the title when Shrek has a head of hair...until then we will keep winning it

I don't really care about Chavs really, everytime a new manager comes in, there's always the rebuilding process. I just don;t know how much rebuilding do they need. They got a 50 million worth of striker that past his glory so start building on that. Plus I don't really care about Rooney.
