Why on earth did we sell James Rodriguez?

[Pittsburgh Footy]

I was a James apologist as much as anyone else.

The fact that no real club went anywhere near him this summer and we finally rinsed some club from Kreblakistan or something to offload him tells me everything I need to know about if he'd be able to truly help us or not this season

 

[Stan Lee Park]

He has not been sold yet - he is on loan (for 2 years?).

JR for all his ability would not be the solution to cover the loss of Doucoure.

Make your own judgement.

Krap attitude I am told. Not sure if crap is allowed?

 

[Cameron Manning]

You'd be amazed that Rondon was on £20k a week? Less than JJK?

Yes, not sure what wages Jonjo is on but I would be amazed if Rondon is on more than £20,000 a week.

 

[Cameron Manning]

be prepared to be amazed then mate!

So what is he on?

Yes, not sure what wages Jonjo is on but I would be amazed if Rondon is on more than £20,000 a week.

Prepare to be amazed then because he is on way more than £20k a week.

I doubt he's come in from China to be on crap wages.

 

[Papa Shango]

I doubt he's come in from China to be on crap wages.

He obviously wanted out of there hence him going on loan in Russia for a bit.

But yeah he certainly wont be on 20k. He would have been getting more than that when he was last in the premier league at "lesser" clubs. You would imagine he will be on at least 50ish.

 

[Neiler]

Quality, wish he was still here.

 

[sd_1992]

Must be because he is lazy and injury prone...

But then again looking at our squad filled with lazy injury prone player does make you wonder why we sold the most talented of them.

 

[FrenchDarrenBent]

The question we should be asking is: where would we be if Benitez got his wish with Koulibaly.
Three goals conceded.

Maybe £20,000 is not a crap wage to Rondon!!

 

[Cameron Manning]

Prepare to be amazed then because he is on way more than £20k a week.

How much more !!
