Undoubtedly one of the biggest flop signings we have ever made, but at £27mil it's likely we will be stuck with him for at least a couple of seasons.
Thinking about it this morning my mind went back to that performance against us last season when he just seemed to dominate us and inevitabley scored the winning goal against us.
I went back and watched the YouTube video again and I had remembered right, but it was when he played high up the pitch, winning the ball and laying it off, so could he not do the same for us? We seem to be playing a lot more high balls under Moyes nearly in desperation when our wing play is not working.
Where would that leave Rooney? Well, he has been playing really deep in our recent games and it has been mentioned before he could play the Scholes role so why not drop him in CM with Carrick? He can still get forward and join the attacks but we would have an extra body behind Fellaini.
I see no reason against this as let's face it, our current "wing-play" is awful. What do you all think?
Fellaini

Yeah you are right.
Evans second loan at Sunderland was under Sbragia, first was Keane and Welbeck was Bruce.

I'd be surprised if we didn't see Mats Daehli join up with Ole at Cardiff, maybe one or two others as well.
Rumours are is that he's looking at Magnus Eikrem and Finnbogason at Heerenveen.

TRS, when I heard Ole was going to Cardiff I was thinking that.
Especially with the Norwegian league finished until March as well.

Forren could well be another. What exactly happened with him at Southampton? Didn't even feature once.

I dunno, he didn't play did he?
People slate Tan for sacking Mackay, but it could prove to be a smart move if Ole does as well, especially as being Ole his reputation will give them an advantage in attracting players.

Nope he didn't play and he was supposed to be a pretty well regarded defender as well.
I don't think Tan and smart are two words which should be mentioned in the same sentence when he asks why the full-backs and apparently the goalkeeper? aren't scoring more goals.
It could well prove a brilliant decision though much like Southampton's decision to sack Adkins and appoint Pochettino was.

Nah Tan is a genius.
