Well if his finishing is good (and we all know how quick and strong he is) why does he have to play "in the hole"? Surely he will be just as effective, playing in a more advanced role than Berbatov?
FWIW, I think that Rooney and Berbatov are both intelligent enough footballers to alternate roles, with both of them as likely to come deep as they are to make runs off the shoulder of the last defender, in much the same way that Rooney and Tevez linked up at times last season.
