Agree NZMANU that CL was a very frustrating watch. Neither berbatov or hernandez dropped to receive back to goal in the middle of the pitch - meaning rooney was pinging to corners all night long - and neither nani or valencia are top of their game at moment. We miss Young! All our attack was down the wings - need Rooney in his no10 position in behind lead striker - Wellbeck perhaps on current form. Midfield is a worry but remember Anderson and Cleverly only very young. Thought Fletch played ok last time out. Please no Evans or Rio for Sunderland game! Hopefully da Silvas coming right.
This from AF.re Rooney
'He was our best player.
It was an option for us and a good option because he has all the qualities you need to be a central midfield player.'
