edddddddddie, how naive a comment is that?!
A team of 10 or 11 Rooneys would be VERY futile!
What about defenders - is Rooney a World Class Defender?
Ok, so the nike advery showed him do well in goal but he could not play in every position.
And remember - a lot of skillful world teams have very skillful forwards but lack goalscoring power - why - they need someone more straight forward to put the ball in the back of the net, a poacher or a striker - like RVN or Shearer. You need a forward who doesn't mind being up front on his own - being patient, waiting for that one opportunity to get past the defenders.. we saw Rooney get frustrated being a lone striker in the WC. -

I would agree at the moment we look one striker shy, but that might not be the case if Rossi does more than just show promise this season.
Can't be sure how well Solskjaer will do after all his injury problems, Saha is too much like Andy Cole (relies on confidence heavily)in my opinion and Smith has never been that prolific and wont be match sharp for a while. -

I'd play Heinze in central defence with Ferdinand.
You then have Vidic and Brown as cover in central defence and Silvestre and O'Shea (and Brown) as cover for the full backs. -

me neither. Ian, a stupid stupid boy.
btw Political Correctness is madness, so "PC gone mad" is PC that is mad and gone mad even more! Just had to say that as people say that expression as if PC is ok normally when it is usually discriminatory (so called positive discrimination). -

Rooonaldo_utd. OK, noted about the goalkeepers having blinders - but isn't it the case that we only notice goalkeepers playing blinders when Utd struggle?! That may seem obvious - they are struggling because the goalkeeper is keeping everything out. But I say no... if you are playing well and striking well, a goalkeeper shouldn't be able to save the shots. It's all about placement, not just shots on target. A goalkeeper can be made to look good.

I think Utd need Rooney for the chance to win the league. England comes second....
I'd lose sleep if Utd don't win Premiership
I wont if England don't win WC.
So I say risk Rooney in as many Utd games as possible.

As long as MO doesn't go to Scousepool then I'm happy enough.
Maybe in 3 years time he'll return to the Premiership - taking over from Fergie? Although I wonder if Fergie (or his family) will want another 3 years? -

I've read the Leeds United post and all your recent comments and hats off to you for going into so much detail and not jumping on the debt-worry bandwagon.
I will consider what you've said and hope that Utd still are in a position to buy world-classs players. But I still think there is a cloud over Utd caused by either the Glazers' debts or the press reporting on this -- surely Utd players reading the papers would feel a little dejected?
Shall we shake on it and agree to disagree in a grown up way? -

I'll second that.. Liverpool are banging in goals at the moment so look like they'll be a side who'll be close to the top next season. Unfortunately!
