He's better further up the pitch if we are going to play Rooney. Much like McCarthy playing there, it means we can use his legs to press the opposition but also buy Rooney some yards to play in.

Going to be a superb player. Already a very good one when considering his age.
 

You mention the word RUN a lot - he is much more of a player than that also Snides can't run so thats a big difference changed the game last night!
Tom was involved in two of our goals !

No reason comparing him with Schneiderlin and I’m not looking only at yesterday game. Tom has the potential of becoming better than Barkley in many ways. Just the lack of ball control when dribbling is preventing him from developing into one of our best midfielder.

I suspect upper body strength being the key to his success, he’s too easily brush aside when running with the ball.
 
He's not right for the more offensive midfield roles. He's a limited player with a high quality, but narrow skill set. I'd prefer he was used in specific games and in roles that he's suited to, as he gets shown up when he's asked to play roles he's not 100% right for.
 

Harsh to take him off today. Wasn't like the derby, just the victim of a formation change. Actually thought he was playing well just hope his confidence isn't getting battered.
Some of his passing was a bit turd but he was the only man linking us up in that area.

He will be fine imo. Always going to struggle as a young lad in his second season

I like him in general and think he will be a great player but he was awful today. Gave the ball away every time he got it.
