Chelsea have had a bid for Wayne Rooney of £10m plus Spanish playmaker Juan Mata rejected.

Manchester United have turned down the offer, which is also said to have given the champions the opportunity to take David Luiz instead of Mata, and have maintained their position that Rooney is not for sale at any price.

There’s been widespread shock on social media sites that:

a) Chelsea thought this would be a good deal for them
b) Manchester United didn’t snap their hands off once it had been made

Rooney still seems determined to leave Old Trafford. Having requested a transfer at the end of last season, he has now said that he’s “angry and confused” at the way United have treated him.

Here are five reasons why Manchester United were right to reject the deal.
