Are we expecting Rooney to complete his move today?

Another one with significant knee problems, maybe him and May could compare notes! He's one of those "names" from about 3-4 years ago that just seem to have fallen off the radar. Could be anything, although coming from Utd and being a name people are aware of, expectations would be high!
If we replaced a proven, experienced goal scorer like Rooney with a player that's lost his way, had injury problems, and has a very poor goal scoring record when punted out on loan, then it would sum up a horrendous transfer window by the club.
I await AFC1903mad to come along and correct me though

I suspect that Rooney has told McInnes that he doesn't want to sit on the bench. I suspected as much as soon as I read our managers comments a few weeks back. There was a hint that Rooney wasn't happy. "As long as he wants to be here" or similar.
Rooney has been great for us. The lack of service after losing both Hayes & McGinn was the beginning of the end for him as a goal poacher. His service dried up and McInnes started to look at more mobile strikers who can also operate outside the box.
