Rooney wasn’t played to his strengths last season but you seem happy to write him off
Yes it's all about opinions. I've witnessed the slow decline of Rooney from a very limited footballer who rarely scored against good defences to someone that when the goals dried up contributed nothing to the team. I would have been happy to have kept him as super sub. Just not our first choice striker
You don't offload him though when your only other options at the time were a lumbering useless donkey, and a guy who seems shot to pieces after a serious knee injury. We got lucky with Anderson coming on against Rangers, and he actually looks the best of the bunch but in McInnes head he isn't 6 foot odd so he's 4th in our striking pecking order.
Well hopefully Wilson and maybe even May will prove us wrong not forgetting Anderson
It probably is Mcinness increasingly outdated notion of playing with one striker. Particularly without a rampant Hayes and McGinn which was the only way playing one up top was ever going to produce goals and not a borefest
