As Staffs FC said, on this season's form he's not an automatic pick anywhere. He's not producing at 6 and has looked solid but uninspiring at FB.
And I say that as a big fan of his.
Not sure if he has yet to come to terms with his medical condition or if it's fallout from his injury (or some of both) but right now he's a shadow of his former self. I really hope he can get back to the kind of form he's capable of but at the moment he's going backwards if anything.
Rooney, as also stated, does at least have a kicking game and a footballing brain - two things we are short of.
Hold on to me baby, his bony hands will do you no harm It said in the cards, we lost our souls to the Nameless One

Think 12 would be too many, and can't see it at all with too many of the like we need rid of being under contract. In an ideal world without contract complications and if it was the right players though, so long as we brought in a few other players who'd justify it I wouldn't be too displeased to see maybe even as many as 9 or 10 go.

I would like to see Whiting have a run this season at 13, I am unsure if he could stand up to it physically. A 13 is expected to do his fair share of hitups aswell a load of defence and whether this would take too muhc out of him I am not sure.

Maybe having players like Tansey,Rooney might bring the best out of Horne as his place will be no way certain and brings competition for places with everyone pushing each other
Agree with Whiting he has to be given a run in the middle of the park at either 1,6,13 to see what he is capable of because apart from Berro he is the only 1 with a footballing brain

Give us a fullback that looks consistently solid and I'll be very pleased after the last two seasons.
The words of fools mean nothing to one who resides in the truth.
