I hope you're right and that there are more free roles - in the past it's been that if you're on the wing in Fergie's side, you're on the wing, so to speak.
My experience of Roon on the wing is that he just ends up frustrated and doesn't contribute too much.
He was quiet in the sense that he wasn't scoring as many goals, but we got plenty of results. Some pretty brilliant ones in fact. I don't remember him being frustrated actually. Mostly it was the British press in an uproar that England's Wayne RooneyTM was on the wing. In fact, he seemed to be really enjoying his football, linking up with Tevez, Giggs and Ronaldo in those days. Our counter-attacking moments were devastating at times. And I shouldn't omit a better-lunged Park from that period either.
