Drop Wayne Rooney for Hernandez

That overhead super goal against Man City apart, Wayne Rooney has simply not justified his starting place in the Man United line-up this season.

He is out of form and seems to be suffering mentally. He needs to get some help from a therapist to overcome the problems that are clearly dogging his return to something like the Rooney we knew a year ago.

In the meantime, it is simply not right that the brilliant, in-form Chicarito stays sidelined on the bench while Rooney struggles. The Mexican boy should be in the team - he is the new Solskjaer.

ALEX McLEISH BIRMINGHAM 'SMALL CLUB' CLANGER

Congratulations to Birmingham City and their fans on that stunning Carling Cup win over much-fancied Arsenal.

Also to Alex McLeish for masterminding the victory - he has now staked his claim to be seen as a top manager in England as well as Scotland.

Just a word to the wise though, Alex, old chum...it is not a good way to endear yourself to Birmingham supporters by describing their football club as 'a small club' towards 'big club Arsenal'!

Check the history books - Brum haven't always been struggling at the bottom of the league, Alex. In England they are considered more than a small club - they are a club with a big history and good support!
