Heard on the radio the other day that we don't see the best of Wayne Rooney because he's always played out of position.

Surely if he was that good he'd be played in his best position. You don't see Messi Or Ronaldo being played out of position.

Whilst he obv isn't in their league. I'd say his adaptability and work rate are his downfall. He played one full season up top as main man and scored 40 goals.

But like Gerrard for England being sacrificed and played in wrong place constantly.
 
So what does the Falcao signing mean for Rooney?
Drop back deeper as a number 10 maybe?
Dropped to the subs bench? (can't see that like).
That Falcao fella looks like a goal machine so someone needs to make room for him.
