Leandro Rodriguez

[Hantakun]

Do yourselves a favour and do not even think of Rodriques until next season.
I expect that this is a season of acclimatisation at the club and the style of football as well as
building up the player physically to meet the demands of the premiership.
Next season we may have a better idea if we have a premiership player on our hands but not until then at the very earliest imo.

Exactly. The club were quite clear about this when presenting Rodriguez as a new signing. Although with him seemingly being a poacher kind of striker, I'd like to think he could be in for a late sub appearance or two in games later on this season where we're pushing for a result...

He was doing really well for the under 21's, got injured but is back and training with the first team now.

How long was he out injured for? Isn't he a bit old for the under 21's

A month or two I think and maybe but that's around his developmental area for where he has come from similar to Coleman when he arrived

Yeh because he was gonna come straight from the Uruguayan league into our first team...

I'm no expert of the Uruguayan league, but if he's good enough he will be able to play in the premiership. Are you saying the Uruguayan league is poor?? And, we should not be purchasing players from that league??

Bit harsh that, at least give him a chance.

Yes it's a terrible league but also he wasn't bought with the intention of starting in the first team; even Martinez said so himself. Stop trying to twist words Moomin you bell.

Wait a minute, let's get this straight. We have bought a player to not play in the first team.

Just doesn't make sense that. Surely we buy players to play in the team.

You're such a tit. I specifically wrote to start in the first team which he wasn't. Eventually Martinez may see him being of that level but it was play him in the reserves or don't play him at all.

Come on Bobby, your memory can't be that bad? It's less than 6 months since he signed.

I was gently reminding you of your language.

Yes, you shot me down by saying the Uruguayan league is rubbish and a striker older than Lukaku was signed to play for the reserves not the first team.

Glad you're on board now then
