BarrowRam Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Glad Rooney had took himself out of the squad. Hope Shinnie gets the start on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of our best performances of the season came without him in the squad. She’s better in the air but pace is similar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think this idea came from above, I imagine it may have been planted by Rooney. Why give the guy without his badges the job when Liam and Wassell are both qualified and I imagine Justin is too lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsnip Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Good decision. Looking forward to seeing him on the touchline. He's basically got an opportunity to restart his job interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiddingsRam Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Serious note , this is a good move . Allows one man to be in charge , being guided by a man who knows the game , who's been there and done it. Rooney is obviously a class player still , technically , but he's not fitting into the system and the style . For me the main reason it's not working for us a team with Rooney in is because we don't have a hold up striker . Stick with me here , Rooney has great vision but slows the game down way too much . It would work if his 40 yard passes were being played into a hold up striker and midfield runners and wide forwards play off him . Simplest comparison is how we played under Mac 1 with a prime Chris Martin . With the current crop Keep it simple play 2 in midfield , a box to box player with pace and energy and a playmaker , someone who can get there foot on the ball , play and is disciplined but who's also has the ability to break the play up . Personally I'd go for Shinnie. Bielik Knight and Birds time will come for these roles . Just feel the experience is key right now . Then I'd play one in front of them a proper number 10 , real bit of class , bit of unpredictably Sibley Either side of Sibley I'd play Waghorn , loads better out wide , he's not a centre forward wide man , but a target then Jozwiak on the other side , our real only proper winger , Therese definitely a player in there some where Waghorn. Sibley. Jozwiak Last problem and our main problem , the centre forward . We don't have one , Stretton and JHI could be the boys to do it I just dont think it's fair on them . To chuck them in and all the negative fans slating them on social media and packing them off to Boreham wood . I'd play Lawrence there . Honestly I would , good finisher , hungry , quick , direct . There's always the option then for this front 4 to be fluid then . Lawrence Sorry I was in a rant and didn't want to stop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OoooMarkWright Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 I’m not a fan of Rooney in regards him getting the job on a permanent basis, but Rosenior had a mare last night. Bringing Holmes and Richards on, moving Bird back, Lawrence wing back. Something had to change. Want us to win badly, and important we do especially given the opponent. But IF we beat Wycombe and Coventry, I hope this doesn’t lead to a false view of Rooney’s capabilities for the full time job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gone Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Crazy letting him loose on management in these crucial games. Should of just let Mac take over until the new mob come in, the famous 4 should of been disbanded after last night and gone back to their day jobs which for Rooney should be sub.

That's my thoughts, and why I would go with Shinnie. Think we need some bite and experience next to two of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
