I've been thinking about this thread and wondering what to say and how to put it. Rooney has shown in the reserve games this season that he has plenty of skill but lacks the maturity to use it to its full potential (work in progress) Gowling has shown he can play well, unfortunately, it needs Maher standing in front of him for protection. Without Maher on Saturday he reverted to pre Lincoln loan spell (pre Maher giving him cover) dreadful.
