		<description>definitely...i honestly see wazza as scholesys natural successor . he has all the necessary attributes to be world class attacking midfielder , which is the position scholesy used to fill (remember 02-03?) . it is a position we&#039;re currently struggling to fill with our strikers dropping deep to facilitate the link up play . anderson is by definition an attacking midfielder but ever since he has been with us he&#039;s been deployed in a more defensive role which he is actually very good at , so i dont see the need to disrupt that . if wazza can fill in this AMF role , we could in theory accomodate all the 4 big guns in the starting lineup . remember , fergie is the best at getting top players modify their game - scholesy and smudger stand out as prime examples . would be delighted to see wazza transform into the paul scholes of old .</description>

		<description>At first I thought there was no way Rooney would ever equal Giggs&#039;s record, considering that most forwards retire a little earlier than most midfielders (Giggs is now in his mid 30&#039;s, not a lot of class forwards in their mid 30&#039;s). However, I pose the question : could an early, to mid 30&#039;s Rooney transition into a type of midfielder in the style of Scholes?</description>
