Rooney described City’s dominant performance as one that would have sent “a chill down the spine of every Arsenal fan”, given how sharp Pep Guardiola’s men looked. But he also questioned — was City simply unstoppable, or did Liverpool fall short of their usual standards?

The trio also took time to praise Sunderland’s impressive league form, highlighting the leadership of captain Granit Xhaka, who Rooney believes could be “the signing of the season.” Drawing on his own experience as a captain, Rooney explained how seasoned leaders like Xhaka play a crucial role in guiding younger teammates through difficult matches.

They also tackled Jamie Carragher’s recent claim that the Premier League isn’t as competitive or entertaining as it once was — a statement Rooney strongly disagreed with, offering his own perspective on the league’s evolution.

The discussion didn’t stop there — the team analyzed Manchester United’s 2–2 draw with Tottenham, and Rooney shared his impressions from his visit to Everton’s new stadium, praising Jack Grealish’s consistency after another standout performance against Fulham.

Manchester United are reportedly willing to sell striker Rasmus Hojlund for £30m as they pursue RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko. The Denmark forward, who scored twice against Bournemouth in Chicago on July 30, 2025, insists he wants to stay at Old Trafford, but his future remains uncertain, per Sky Sports.

Hojlund’s potential exit is tied to United’s interest in Sesko, also a target for Newcastle United. With a £43m book value from his 2023 five-year contract, a £30m sale would mean a financial loss for United, who must comply with Premier League profit and sustainability rules. The club’s £130m summer spending on Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha adds pressure to balance the books.

Should Sesko join, Hojlund could be sidelined, prompting speculation about his departure. United are reportedly waiting to finalize incoming transfers before confirming exits, with sources suggesting Sesko prefers a move to Old Trafford. This transfer saga could reshape United’s attacking lineup.

The Man Utd transfer window remains active, with Hojlund’s fate hanging in the balance. Stay updated on the latest developments in United’s pursuit of Sesko and potential squad changes!
