I just don't rate Rodwell as world class, or put him in your bracket as "potentially the best in the world" - on his performances in an Everton shirt, I cling on to hope he'll fulfil his potential at centre half, because I just don't see it in him in centre midfielder.

I hope I'm wrong, because Felli is off to one of the worlds biggest Clubs (you and toccy mocked when I said it'll happen in his first season (y) )... and we'll need Jack to try and minimise the damage.

He is off to Real isn't he Dan?

If Rodwell leaves, he could go either way, really improve and become an England regular, or drift in and out of a top team until he leaves for a smaller club. If he stays with us a while longer, it could really benefit him long term.

Maybe mate, maybe.

At the moment, as ever, I imagine him as potentially a Michael Carrick. Wouldn't be a bad thing - but just haven't seen anything in Jack Rodwell which suggests "world beater".

Clearly hope he proves me wrong!

no i'm with you on that. But lets keep that amongst ourselves, lets hype the **** out of him and try and get 30 million from someone...
 
Am I too late for this?

/prepares Yakubu comeback!
/re-thinks and crawls away.

Well I changed my mind with Fellaini, I hyped him up as quality, then when he started playing like total sheeet I turned on the boy, shocking!

I just think Rodwell has all the tools he needs to succeed, he has a little pace, he can take people on and he can tackle.

I agree with you in some respect, he could play CB with ease, im not convinced by his heading, but he has everything else a good quality CB needs, I personally think his talents would be wasted at CB tho and I can see him having a very good career in midfield.

He lacks only 1 thing at the moment, hes very short on confidence, he needs an arm round the shoulder, he needs to be told just how good he is and he needs to believe it, he lacks the arrogance that the top tier players have, I blame his Parents, clearly they brought him up correctly, damn them!





Oh and McFadden is beyond gash.
 
Oh and ps, if Fellaini is off to Madrid, good luck to the lad, the Club will try and paint him as a Judas, like they normally do, but I say good luck to him and I wish him all the best.
 

Hmm i dont have a prob with this to be honest, he never really got a chance with us and lets be honest here Brum where never a beacon of attacking creative play. He adds something to the squad and the system. He was never a forward for me, always more of a winger - i watched him from an early age at Motherwell when i was living in Scotland.

I think he will fit into a front three as a winger - without pocession/inside forward when we dont. Admittedly it is a cut price variation on the system i would have liked to seen. Say for argument sake:

Out of Possession:

--------------------The other Tim


-Hibbert----------Jags----------Distin---------Baines


Drentne----------Rodders--------Mofro---------JimmyMC

-------------------------Cahill

------------------------Saha


In Possession:


----------------------The Other Tim

-----------------Jags---------------Distin


-------------------------Rodwell


-Hibbert------------------Mofro---------------Baines


--------Drentne---------Cahill------JimmyMac

--------------------------Saha
