Kroos was no way frozen out by Pep. It was his first season so he was always gonna rotate players in and out and play them in different positions. And even with that Kroos only missed a few games in the BL and the CL. That story in the messageboard absolutely baffles me. It was obviously written in the second week of his two week 'exile' but he was back almost immediately after and was pretty much a mainstay all the way through.
The same thing happens here. Rooney's dropped for one game and the press rumours suddenly go wild.
