Maybe? We are in desperation stakes ourselves! The thing is, Torres was once good. And I'm not even convinced Rooney is a striker. I think he's more an AM. Maybe we need an out and out striker.
He's been playing ok. He started the season on fire, then he went a couple of month without scoring while still having some good and bad game during that period. One thing you do hve to remembe though is that during the goalless spell, he's played a few games in midfield. It's no wonder his form has been less consistent during that time. Now he's played a few games up front again, he's started scoring again, coincidence?
And it's not like he has the same number of goals this season as a top class striker like Aguero now, is it?
He does have a good scoring record at OT!Though I wouldnt want him to get in the way of Welbecks development, who will be a better player long term for us.Also, Hernandez will be fit again by Jan.
