Chelsea to swap mata for Rooney makes a bit of sense, Chelsea are oversubscribed in the creative forward areas, hazard, Oscar, de bruyne, schurrle, if they get rid of mata they can push Oscar forward, or move hazard behind the striker. Rooney gives them experience, goals, and has played in that fluid kind of interchanging front line with tevez and a.n.other and scored a hatful doing it..

So in your world, or in the Guardian's, Chelsea would take the man who has been Player of the Year for the last two years making 54 and 64 appearance, scoring 12 then 20 goals and 23 and 35 assists and who is 25 years old and swap him, or use him in part exchange for a player who is two and a half years older, made 44 and then 37 appearances scoring 34 but then 16 goals and whose salary is five times the amount of Mata's.

Perhaps not.
