Wondering if its time we got real about Wayne Rooney. That for all the hope and hype, after one too many metatarsals, one too many clubs held to ransom, one too many hair transplants, his ability to impose himself at the very highest level is just limited. And yes occasionally hell do something stunning against ordinary opposition, and well oooh and well coo and well sigh, and well dust off our dreams and sing that song about Pele and kid ourselves that hes back, back on the road to potential. And by God Im not immune to it! I remember a game at Old Trafford soon before he broke his metatarsal. I was there. I think he might have been in harness with Tevez. And they looked like a couple of panthers, stalking and pacing and snarling outside a chicken coop, just waiting to erupt forward at the slightest hint of a gap, and deal out hen death. It was terrifying and marvellous to behold. Nothing like the toothless performance against Bayern, and every top flight game since that break...
