The point is we can not afford sitting on our hands and watching Rooney score 1 goal from August to December again while a better option like Martial is played out of position! We are chasing titles this season and it is going to be very tight at the top.

Let Rooney move to 10 and lets see, if he does not stink up that position too he can keep his place but if he rubbish there too let us try Mata or Herrera or Perreira there.

You can't keep playing average or rubbish and expect to keep your shirt while other boys come in play as well or even better and get sent back to the bench or are shunted to one side.

Mata,Herrera,Martial,Young and Lingaard have been better than Rooney this season. Rooney and Depay have been our worst attacking players this season.

Coogar forget that thing, those 3 are finished strikers though Rooney is the least finished. Remember i warned you about Falcao and his ACL injury potential last season. You can see even Strootman is having problems. ACL is injury is terrible and unpredictable, you prepare for the worst and just hope and pray for salvation.

SIRcumalot:

None of those numbers look good for those three players since it was a bad goal scoring year for the whole team.

This season he isn't the first goal scoring option LVG prefers a SS in that "10" position only rooney is still capable of perform this function in the team.he will get us more goals from that position than Mata or Herrera.

U guys still arguing Rooney with Elampiro?? Lool!! Y'all ve time

elampiro:

Afrodoc2, the point you are missing is that Rooney played in the number 10 in error last two matches. So why are you saying he should play as 10?

Martial led the line vs CSKA.
Martial led the line vs WBA.

I am not missing the point. i am just saying i hope it is not a temporary move, i do not want Rooney playing that 9 position again! He is as slow and ponderous as Yokozuna.
Rooney should not be shunted around again. If he is not good enough to start as a 10 let him move to the bench.

AdeLaNa1:
Wait feest! Which CSKA match are we talking abt here?? The first or second leg??

elampiro:


Second leg.

elampiro:


But when he played 9 for few minutes against CSKA he scored. His last two games shows he can deliver as 9 or 10.

But I prefer him as 10.

SIRcumalot:

The general thought on rooney is that his goals comes in patches its not wrong to think he'll start hitting braces in the next five games,

elampiro:


All these are stories. You don't know any better than Van Gaal and Sir Alex Ferguson.

Moreover, Van Persie and Falcao were given much longer time to either pass or fail last season.

Before the season kicked off, the whole media was after Rooney, their aggression on Gaal's refusal to buy a new striker was transferred to Rooney.

afrodoc2:


IMO Martial is a better 9 and that is all that matters. We should play our best options in the different positions. our best option at 9 is martial. i am not sure of the 10 position so rooney can move there

coogar:


i am actually baffled you can still give him a chance at the #10 position? what exactly does rooney have in his ammo right now that qualifies him as a #10?

vision - 0
short passes - 0
first touch - 0
making forward passes - 0

as a #9? may God help us.....
remember rooney's last league goal last season was against spurs when he started playing as a #9. it took rooney 999 league minutes to score another league goal after the game against spurs(last season at OT)!

you must have the faith of father abraham!

SailorXY:

the main stories are the Rooney excuses! people begging his wife in public to deny him sex till he @ least play well? I'll be ashamed of myself if people beg my wife to deny me sex till i perform in what i'm trained to do

nyabinghi:
u need to count stones to help ur numeric ability if depay scored against brugge and is counted by u then what happens to rooney's hat trick

the poor rooney is still united's top scorer, 4 in europe 2 in bpl 1 in capital one who has scored more

mourinho won the league for chelsea u said means he was the epl player of the season tell mai suyas that tori

mata disappears from matches like g string from whores mata was a liability in chelsea, kai rooney is better than mata in a zillion ways

coogar:


RVP was the least finished!
politicking got involved & it's clear RVP was always going to be let off before rooney. wazza is the englishman in his own country, RVP is just a foreigner!



those numbers look better than what rooney has delivered this season. 2 PL goals in 981 mins. that's close to a league goal scored in 500 mins.

the logical question is - why did LVG sell RVP/falcao when evidence has shown they delivered a better scoring rate than wazza is doing currently?

big players in other clubs get dropped for poor performances. hazard, cesc, depay, mata, etc have all been dropped for a lapse in concentration. why is rooney getting a free ride with his 490 mins/goal strike rate?



what?
rooney has been tried everywhere, the outcome is the same. he has failed as a 9, 10, 6 and 8. rooney is not better than anyone in any position. martial is better as a #9, mata/herrera/fellaini are all better as a 10 or in the SS position.

Why u dey laff na,Its not unreasonable ?
We aren't looking for a creator in that position if not Mata would already have that position immediately LVG arrived.
Is mata a better goal scorer than rooney ?

Odunharry:
