layman would say we've got all these top class strikers looking at these names: Falcao, RVP, Rooney, all of them massively declined, all top teams and some midtable ones have better strikers than us. we should do something with it, I hope LVG has got balls to sell rooney to MLS or anywhere, even with his wages we would have 3+ great players..
The biggest BS people say here that he needs service, he's not getting the best one but we are surely not that bad and he needs to do better up front to get to those chances.. I don't say welbz was better, he wasn't good finisher but he could operate in tight spaces could over sprint anyone, actually press the defense and goalkeeper. I think even his hold up and link up play was better.
Rooney's so slow it's unbelievable, last game he was chasing the ball and I thought myself "Is he going straight from pub"? he can't control the ball well and his wonder skills he shows from time to time and quite creative thinking are too inconsistent and doesn't make up for his terrible movement and touch.
When you look at Costa, Suarez, Aguero, Kane... they do so much more than finish, the days of pure no9 strikers are all gone, we shouldn't settle for that rooney is only going to finish chances.. sell him before we can get some cash for him
