Spurs As long as he's not in before our game, i'm looking forward to the prospect of no Modric, Parker and Sandro. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sifu Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 This Rodwell to City thing is a weird one. It's the wrong career move at the wrong time for him imo. If he's going to challenge Barry/de Jong for a place in the team then fair enough but I honestly think Rodwell's not going to have the best of times at City.

taxfree Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Rennes chairman Frederic de Saint-Serni has claimed that French star Yann M'Vila has now received a 'concrete' offer from England. Spurs Steal if they get him for the reported £10m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Phil McNulty @philmcnulty Man City's Rodwell signing complete. Everton will get a guaranteed £12m down and add ons could come to another £5m. 9:12 PM - 12 Aug 12 That didn't take long. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Tbf when you offer as much City supposedly have done it probably wouldn't take anyone long to make their mind up. Wonder what the add ons are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Why? You just get to borrow one of their players and have them pay most of his wages for you anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's going to challenge Barry/de Jong for a place in the team then fair enough but I honestly think Rodwell's not going to have the best of times at City. I think both Barry and De Jong are on their way out of the team anyway. Still a lot of competition like obviously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 http://www.evertonfc.com/news/archive/2012/08/12/blues-accept-rodwell-bid Rodwell to Man City. Probably see a lot more of Ross Barkley now. He'll probs end up a better player than Rodwell too (injuries permitting). As long as Everton got a fiar bit of wedge for this then i reckon it'll be good business for them.

BrettNUFC Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Rodwell or Allen? I would go for Rodwell for the simple reason he can play in a few positions and will be a good squad player maybe forcing his way into the side against barry/de jong. 15 million for allen i just can't see any sense in that what so ever, i'm struggling to believe he's an upgrade on Jordon Henderson let alone Lucas or Gerrard.

Neil Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 2 or so years ago there was absolutely no doubt in my mind Rodwell would become a top-class English midfielder for many, many years. First choice in the England team, and one of the very best in the Premier League. Now, I'm not so sure. He has the world at his feet with his natural ability but injuries and frankly his attitude are worries. I hope he realises his potential. He certainly has age on his side, anyway.

This should be the ideal move for the player then. His appetite for the game should sky-rocket now that he's receiving mega-wonga for playing in the reserve league.

What's wrong with his attitude? Unless i've missed something i've never seen him in the papers for the wrong reasons and on the pich he always seems fully committed to the cause?

Cronky Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Rodwell is at a point when he needs to be playing regular first-team football. No matter how big a club he's signed for, if he's on the bench it's a step backwards. De Jong, Barry, Milner and Yaya Toure all beat him on experience. Man City have no record of developing young players - it's all about the here and now, and the first team with them. Presumably money has talked here.
