So long as he gets support from an attacking midfielder and the flanks.
I'm against playing another forward with Rooney because it limits his involvement.
If he becomes the focus of the team going forward he'll cause any opposition problems.
Rooney never wastes possession and it doesn't matter where he receives the ball, he's capable of making things happen.
Playing another forward with him will only half his contribution.
