Rooney was being very vocal today, bossing the back 5, and not being eloquent about it.
Thought it right to play him in the back 3 with McCart missing. would have been criminal to start with Muller / Ambrose / Dendonker, who would have totalled about 10 appearances between them in the back 3 setup that is so enjoyed by Davivson.
Thought Rooney enjoyed the game and despite the stats on "whoscored", he won about 15 to 20 aerial battles he encountered today apart from 2 that Sheridan won against him in the 2nd half.
He was the leader at the back today when it really mattered.
The Dundee goal came from yet another setplay when Sweeney back pedalled away from Ambrose to get a free header.
