  In a 4-5-1 formation.
  
  As proven from Man U's UCL Match against AC Milan.
  
  And for England against Portugal.
  
  You agree?
  
  Or is it possible, just that the managers haven't gotten it right?

  ya rooney doesnt play well as a lone-striker.
  
  he's waaaay better playing in the hole behind the striker.

  He is a player who needs support + can create chances for his striking partner... therefore I agree, he cannot be a lone striker.

  He's the closest thing to a playmaker England ever had in years. He's not a pure poacher. Another striker is needed.

  Crouch would be better for 4-5-1.
