3. No need to force him into the team
There have been times where it has seemed that Manchester United and Louis van Gaal have had to force to the English captain into the team. Rooney’s presence does affect the team overall and even the likes of Ander Herrera isn’t given a chance to play all that much.
Rooney hasn’t brought enough to the team, he does bring one or two flashes of brilliance but barring that he has been poor this year for the Red Devils. Selling him might be the best deal United can come up with to solve their problems.
