Great news for anybody supporting Manchester United. Wayne Rooney has signed a contract committing his future to the club for the next five years.In the first place it was absolutely shocking to hear that Wayne wanted to leave and now to hear that he has made sudden U-turn all in the space of a week makes this even more amazing.
Credit must be given to Sir Alex for how he handled the whole situation. He was determined put the whole situation to bed as soon as possible and get on with the more important matters of the club.
Wayne has already apologized to the manager and his team mates and its now time for him to start performing at the level that we all know he can. Hopefully the fans will all get behind him, as doing otherwise will be of no benefit to Wayne or Manchester United.
I've been hearing talk that the events of this week were staged and was some kind of a stunt, but again that's just speculation. I'm only surprised that a contract was signed as quickly as it was; which may just be an indication that this was not all about money as contract negotiations of such a nature generally take a hell of a time to sort out.
This whole development regarding Wayne's possible departure may not exactly have been a bad thought and might have done the club some good in the end. This may just be a wake up call for the Glaziers in more ways than one and might have also be a wake up call for the current squad of players at the club who may now may feel that there is a point to prove on the pitch.
Looking forward to the game on Sunday against Stoke !
