:/ the kind of post that makes you look foolish haf. Third in the league in goals. The work rate isn't there but he's clearly a "good" footballer. It reminds me of how people used to talk about Shaq (Shaquille O'Neal) in basketball; "he's only good because he's so big and strong yet so quick and agile."
..... yeah, exactly. He's a beast of a man and he plays the right sport for his body type and agility. Rom is already a very good footballer. I am often as frustrated as you with his work rate and his football iq, as well as his first touch. But his deception running forward on that goal. His first touch. His finesse finish. Are you kidding me? Name another player his size who can do those things in one long move.
He's not great yet. And he is incredibly frustrating. But "Never in a million years will he be a good footballer?" Fuck off.
Glad your kid got to see a win.
