sempuki Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Rodwell - ha ha ha ha! 'If I’d been playing regularly for the last two years, I believe I probably would have been up there as one of best players in the world,' he said. 'I certainly think I would have been playing at the World Cup. It’s just not worked out over the last two seasons and that’s why I am here at Sunderland now.' Arrogant and deluded. Decent enough but no world beater. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He sounds like Ben Arfa, I hope he doesn't turn out like him. As for some of the goons on RTG, I've got most of them on ignore. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 There's a good player in Rodwell imo, my Everton mate reckons he could have made (or could still I suppose) a great centre back one day. Sunderland's problem is it looks like they're going to be totally reliant on adam johnson for goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ste Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Essentially what Rodwell has said: "my career is a bit fucked up due to injury and not playing, hence why I'm at Sunderland." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan_Taylor Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Essentially what Rodwell has said: "my career is a bit f***ed up due to injury and not playing, hence why I'm at Sunderland." Brilliant that bit man. Basically I'm here to try and be injury free for a bit then fuck off at the first opportunity and pretend Sunderland never happened Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaus Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 He is nowhere near the first player to do this during their career, but is one of the first to admit it before they have even played their first game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 George Caulkin @CaulkinTheTimes 8m Would expect Wickham to leave #Safc if they can get a decent fee for him. Miles apart on wages etc & won't let him see out contract. Big blow that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I thought they were starting to head in the right direction after signing Osman, but there they go again, flogging the 1 decent player they have and who kept them up last season. Only 3 weeks of the window left as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
