Bit of a downer on Rooney here isn't there? He's learning his craft the right way and sure, he's been found wanting in some regards. However, his time at Derby showed he had something. He has a mental strength and he buys into a club completely. Paying the travel costs at Derby and making sure the players were paid showed the guy cares. He also has some very big names in the game to call on for advice when he needs.
The appointment at Blues was nonsense, of course, but he did OK at Derby before his DC move. Over there he had to work in a completely different market as far as recruitment is concerned and he got some decent results in that shit show of a league.
I'm not writing him off just yet.
