"The new Wayne Rooney" (1 Viewer)

[Sky Blues]

I wonder if Cov considered Jose Baxter over the summer. Once dubbed "the new Wayne Rooney" apparently...
Turned down a new contract at Everton in search of first team football and now been invited to train with Oldham, it says here:

Can only find a couple of his goals on YouTube. This peach against Forest: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70MSUhQBVI8
And this against us: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMSGmEMXdzg

His scoring record on loan at Tranmere was 3 in 14 games, so nothing stunning in that statistic, but I guess he must have had something about him to get his Premier League debut so young.

Likened to Rooney for his looks rather than his goal scoring maybe?

Haven't we already got a Scottish Wayne Rooney In Fleck. Anyway, could definitely be worth a shout, my Everton mates been harping on about him for years, he was really shocked that they let him go.
