Cornish Steve Posted November 29, 2021 Report Share Posted November 29, 2021 On 02/10/2021 at 15:20, Cornish Steve said: I watched him a lot today, because I want to be fair. Am I overlooking his contributions? But no. The best way to see this is to compare him and Gray. While Gray is weaving and running and making runs and dribbling the ball, Rondon is jogging aimlessly. Have you noticed that no-one passes to him? Compare that to Gray (or Doucoure): They are always in the thick of things. I really wanted Rondon to succeed today, and he was given 90 minutes, but he simply has no ability: No fitness, no speed, no anticipation, no ball control, no sense of positioning, and zero contribution to defence (because we all know forwards are only any good if they can help in defence). I say this tongue-in-cheek, of course, but DC-L really does contribute to defence. Nothing's changed. Still no goals. Still no anticipation or sense of positioning. It's a crying shame that we never played Simms or Dobbin against Brentford - not even for ten minutes. No - Rondon's the manager's guy, and he'll always play him.

Romey 1878 Posted December 2, 2021 Report Share Posted December 2, 2021 Easily his best performance despite not looking like scoring, which probably tells it's own story! He won a lot of defensive headers for us but, bizarrely, barely won a header up the other end of the pitch! He did grow into the game in a forward sense though and he'll be gutted he's now injured. duncanmckenzieismagic, Palfy and StevO 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted January 15, 2022 Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 I know we will but I do not even want him to have a spot on the bench, he is absolutely useless. Dobbin or Simms, or even someone like Tom Cannon would be of better use to us coming off the bench. I can't wrap my head around why the manager is still persevering with him because he really does offer nothing.

Any idea how long is his contract? Two years with an option of a third - I agree that he won't play for us again though and wouldn't be surprised if he moved on this summer. Despite us signing him which was a bonkers move, I doubt we would be stupid enough to give him inflated wages he wouldn't get elsewhere.
