TRon Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Option to buy for £19m :lol: Got a slight hunch that he's only here for 6 months. Actually quite encouraging that he's got a ridiculous price tag when you have posters on here saying he's shite. Hoping they are just shooting in the dark which isn't unknown on these boards.

A few people on here said Rondon was pap, if Rafa picked him and he was higher up on Rafa list he'll be fine, lower down and it'll be another Manquillo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astroblack Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Nice. Watched Lazio Napoli the other night and he stood out. Has the ability to beat a man, takes risks in possession. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlito Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Seems to have good ideas on the ball and the physicality to carry them out. However he does seem quite clumsy in execution but I'm still looking forward to seeing what he can bring to our team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really hoping that Rafa had the major input in this deal, he's usually a good judge of defenders. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh aye, Lascelles wasn't his buy but our other 4 CB's cost around £20m all together No worries if it wasn't someone Rafa really wanted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

xLiaaamx Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Supposedly been one of our main targets since the window opened. 2 things with that. If he was a main target on 1st January why didn't we sign him on 1st January? If he was a main target and he's never been mentioned before today it just shows how much journalists actually know about what's going on as he has gone right under their radar just like Schar and Fernandez did in the summer. Its always been obvious they can know nothing with actual targets when its chosen to not be shared with them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Also people are going on about how much better Dummett is defensively but there's no place for Dummett in a 352. He's not a wingback and he's not as good as our centrebacks at being a centreback. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Without clicking the link, I'm gonna go wiiiiiiiiiith... 1) Rafa wants a left wing back 2) Left wing back 3) His teammates Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
M1tche Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 from the little ive seen of him, im quite happy with this one. He's quite big for the postion, quick, decent crosser and isnt all left foot like many left back/wing backs seem to be. Has the attributes to be quite good in the prem Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collage Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Nice. Watched Lazio Napoli the other night and he stood out. Has the ability to beat a man, takes risks in possession. Poor defensively, I presume. The anti-Dummett, if you will. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 His first touch looks similarly loose to his brother's. Other than that he looks like he has good technique, physical strength, and speed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aiston Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Strong and fast...tries to take on his man a fair bit and either fails or get's lucky. Rarely seemed to get past someone He does seem to have a better cross than most our players mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Lukaku - Lejeune - Lascelles - Schar - Yedlin That’s a well balanced set of wing-backs and centre-backs on paper. Upgrade the two attackers either side of Rondon and we’d look good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty66 Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 I think he will perform a lot better at LWB in a 3-5-2 than at LB in a 4-4-2 or 4-2-3-1. Much more suited to that position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upgrade the two attackers either side of Rondon and we’d look good. Decent pace on the overlap, there. Will need that, especially for the next 3 league games.

xLiaaamx Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 I love how someone said he's like Sissoko when I've personally thought we could really do with someone who carries the ball like Moussa did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
