W need to give him the opportunity to do so! I do agree that Chicharito has been playing incredibly well and right now deserves his starting place, but my point is that the only way Rooney will find form is by allowing him to play. Berbatov is definitely a possibility for sale which gives us Chicharito and Rooney up front (WOW!!!!). Defour is also a good buy, but Schweinsteiger should be our priority right now!
Si9 :
I totally agree with you, especially with regard to Berbatov. He should be sold on.
No doubting that he too is a top class player, but unfortunately one with a low work rate who's skills are spasmodic.
On a good day .... he's great, and the rest of the time, well .... totally inconsistent.
I believe that Rooney could be back for our match against Wigan on Saturday.
If so, it should make for an interesting afternoon of football :~
What sort of reception will the supporters give him ?
Can he put his period of poor form behind him ?
Will his ankle stand up to 90+ minutes of First Team PL football ?
A great day ahead.
Let's hope that SAF does pick him.
