Wayne Rooney - Target Man?

[nikidoug]

Hey everyone, my scout reports of Wayne Rooney say I should play him as a Target Man? Anyone tried this out? I've played him as a complete forward for 1 full season and he scored 52 goals in 48 games! Would putting him as a Target Man make him better? Thanks in advance!

no either keep him the same or trequartisa or deep lying

I actually play him as a deep lying forward but with full creative freedom....so sorta in the middle of deep lying and trequartista, either is very effective in my opinion.

I play him as a support Target Man, with Hernandez as an attacking Poacher, Rooney averages 30+ goals with Hernandez nearer to 40-50. Seems to work well with Rooney but if you're getting those results then keep on doing as you are!
