Add to that, what was earlier this season a shot shy attack, we are shooting regularly and hitting the target. Our issue had been the way Cocu had us playing. Way too complicated and safety first which only served in offering the opposition chances which they gratefully accepted. Last season, despite only losing touch with the playoff places in the last 5 games, we failed to beat a top 6 side. This season we've already beaten Norwich and Swansea. This 6 game unbeaten run has shown a consistency that ought to see us comfortably in midtable come May...... if the season is played out, that is.
. Yes Rooney sems to be waving a magic wand of sorts. Wonder what his Management skills are like behind closed doors?
