Imagine Rooney with Berba's first touch. That's all I'd ask for if I was him. It's by far his weakest attribute.

Can we at least wait for the PL season to start before slagging off players in the match day thread
I'm discussing this game, is that not allowed? I didn't make a general comment about Young.

Feels like Barca are starting to find their rhythm. Taking control of the game.

Honestly half of the games next year we will be complaining about Rooneys first touch

I agree with whoever said he'd prefer to finish 2nd without Suarez than win it with him.

But bloody hell if he isn't exactly the style of forward we need.

Suarez is such a great player but that ball through to him was way too easy

Been encouraged by this performance so far!

Will be pretty shocked if we don't win every game in every competition next season.

Suarez is such a threat. You can see why that front 3 won the treble. Must scare the shit out of teams.

Suarez can play, that's for sure.

Is Rooney the worst player from a technical POV on the pitch ?
Has to be. You would expect someone like him to put hours and hours of personal training to improve his technique, especially his first touch; go figure why he doesn't. :wenger:

If we could somehow involve Herrera in place of Young or one of CMs, our line-up would be absolutely mouth-watering offensively. Could see that happening against weaker sides in the league.

DeGea is going to be a big loss, thankfully we won't be playing Barca every week though lol.

Mata is too slow and relies too much on team mates to be a top winger or 10, he just slows attaxks up too much at times.
