Who’s the better striker?

[Daniel Gardner]

Both of them have scored goals for us though off very limited chances. Rondon isn't in the right places, as otherwise he would have had several tap ins already.

You would have played one of them 2 over Rondon today? And expected better?

 

[ilikecheese]

Sandro at least ran round a bit.

Im thinking more Brett Angell, he’s actually on par with him

I dunno. The big problem with Sandro was whenever he got a sniff of the ball in any sort of a dangerous position he turned into Bambi on ice.

Yes. 100% would have played niasse over him. Every time. Without question.

Fair enough. Have to agree to disagree. Wish we had better players to talk about tho .

Quite funny that a club that has had manager after manager talk up our Champions League ambitions can have some old journeyman dosser like this up front.

I’m 42 next week, haven’t played football at any level for the last 5 years, and am currently eating a big chunk of cheese whilst laid up on my sofa wearing a lumbar support having done my back in yesterday moving some patio slabs, which means I literally can’t walk 5 yards without looking like I’ve just necked 17 cans of Stella.

Yet I still think I’d be a better option up top than Rondon right now.

Probably not mate tbh

Maybe a bit too late, but i think its time we give our youth a bit more time , like Simms for instance . With Dom due back , Rondon will drop to the bench, we won't give them playing time unless Dom or Rondon gets injured . But then it begs the question again , why haven't we given them a chance ? Just my opinion

I did win “club man” of the season in ‘97 if that sways your opinion?

 

[diggerdestroyer]

I’d forgotten about that mad baldy. I was so chuffed when he signed as well.
That amazing summer when we signed about 5 players all in the same position.

Was that the summer we bought the 3 number 10s. Koeman lol

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

Does anyone know what’s happened to Ellis Sims

Rondon ate him!

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Summed it up for me when Gray put a low cross in around the 6 yard box, waited for the replay to come up on the screen to see how far Rondon was away from getting to it, miles was the answer. I don't think he even made any effort to get there.

Still completely baffled to this day how he manages this.
Mind. Boggled.

It's as if benitez is saying to moshiri, 'yes, I know he's slow, immobile, a bit pudgy, but trust me, he's south american, there's a player in there somewhere'. Similar to what steve bruce says when defending his purchase of joelinton.
