We'd still need a Fletch (dare I say Hargo?) to do the dirty work, so I Delahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00311852304210764520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33581513.post-6747440736470714902010-09-28T06:21:27.006+01:002010-09-28T06:21:27.006+01:00Given a thoroughly thinking, i believe it could ha...Given a thoroughly thinking, i believe it could have work. But Rooney is not traveling to Valencia with the team. Against Bolton, i'm so glad Nani and Owen bid us out. Our midfield is a area for concern but if Hargreaves, Anderson and Carrick comes back, things will change.[[kateku-kel]]https://www.blogger.com/profile/12132538407155671635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33581513.post-80022864234911242622010-09-27T13:33:13.854+01:002010-09-27T13:33:13.854+01:00Jay,

His vision, awareness and passing ability will be better utilised facing the goal, than playing up-front as a striker, often with his back towards goal. In the mid-field he can fulfil two roles, one as a defending midfielder as well as the creative flair that can pick the lock of stubborn defences.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12821774111602007166noreply@blogger.com
