Transfer Rumour Salomon Rondon.

[ForeverBlue92]

Ronaldo's never dipped in form with age though has he?

And who's to say Rondon has?

Just people slating the bloke before a ball has been kicked as usual.

£5m for zero goals or assists......ha ha

That was an Ancelotti problem. He hardly used him when the squad was on its knees. It could well have been a part of why Morshi was so unhappy the end of the season.

Not comparing just laughing at your suggestion that a player is completely finished when they reach 30.

Distin for example was going strong for years.

aren’t you using his Newcastle days as benchmark? So are you expecting the same return from him?

 

[nsno-chris]

I've liked Rondon since his Newcastle days.

As a back up striker in our financial position its a no brainer.

Meanwhile you have the moaners not happy that we are not breaking FFP signing Icardi for £60 million to sit on our bench like he would even want to.

And……..

Another lie

FR - We will see about Rondon; nothing yet.

spot on.. Rondon is still as good as he ever was.. which is bang average

 

[nsno-chris]

I can’t believe Christiano Ronaldo is being used in the same sentence to justify signing Rondon

Our threads get better and better

Peter beardsley was 31 when he signed.
Ran around like a kid in that blue shirt way above those younger.

He was binned off to China then Russia, he's not played in a decent league since 2019

He's played 18 seasons at pro level and in those 18 six have been at elite level, the rest he's bumming around Russia, China, Venezuelan and the Spanish second division

Utter donkey who's well passed his best which to be honest was still average

18 seasons pro level?
He's 31.
So he was playing in a pro league at 13?
Thats impressive.
Welcome salman rushdie.

Gray was binned off by Leicester and was in Germany for a few months.



Maybe wait and see how he does in the Royal Blue Jersey before slating the bloke who's a back up striker at most.

Gray is in his 20's and went to Germany

Rondon is over 30 and was shipped off to China then loaned to Russia because nobody of note wanted him

But wait....................................................here comes Everton

He wasn't shipped off anywhere Newcastle didn't stump up the money for him.

And he's scored near 1 in 2 in Russia.

….no issue with signing Rondon. Whilst it’s not a progressive signing, Kean was and I much prefer Rondon.

i think it’s a ’safe’ signing and I think Moshiri wants a period of stability.
