Jack rodwell

Young,


Young, English, an international. I'd say it was a good deal - IF he can stay fit.

Exactly. When City bought him everyone went mad saying we didn't demand enough from City because of his credentials. I hope the boy does (rod)well, he's had a terrible tim since moving to City.

I think it's a better deal for City than for Sunderland. City's lost ~£2mil in 2 years on a player who's hardly played is great. As for Sunderland, £10mil is a huge gamble, but if managed (rod)well he'll pay it off.

Are we getting a slice of it?

Ridiculous fee really. £10m for a player who's made 16 league appearances in 2 seasons.

Having said that I think he could be good if he ever escapes the prison that is his own head, and good luck to him. Not like he forced his way out is it?

I bet Sunderland would have to get into the CL for the fee to hit £10m! I can't see them paying anywhere near that amount as a base fee. I'd imagine that it's also heavily linked to appearances, given his injury record. If not, the Mackems have mugged themselves off.

Doubt it mate, since he never played and we got too much in the first place!

 

[Tubey]

Those poor unknowing Mackems are delighted about this transfer. Poor sods.

If we'd buy Rodderz i would cut my member off and throw it into raccoons nest without a hesitation or without a hint of mercy

I'm just happy for the raccoons, MrsFinnFan and last, but by no means least, Finn's todger.

 

[Bobbys Zapatos Marrones]

Who do city have in the squad to meet the CL home grown quota now Rodwell has left?

 

[D_Murph]

Are we getting a slice of it?

We get £2million for any sell on.

 

[Zaschrona]

We will get 400k for him as a solidarity contribution for sure. Do we have any % for him as a sell on fee as well?

 

[Dithering Dougie]

We get £2million for any sell on.

Where's this from?

 

[Azza]

1) £10m is wayyyy too much money.

2) I'd be amazed if he makes more than 5 appearances this season.

3) Remember when Moyes played him on the wing against QPR? Hahaha that was a right laugh.

 

[kevdotbadger]

Signed on a 5 year deal. Wow, big risk. He could could play 5 games next season then get injured. Or he could play the whole season, live up to his expectations and be sold to Chelsea for £28mil.

 

[Pabbers]

£10 million is actually nothing these days, and he was fit all or most of last season, just was not picked.

He got 2 Englnd caps when he was getting regular games, he is a good player.

 

[sd_1992]

£10m for Rodwell, £14m for Borini

Whoever is in charge of the money over there needs replacing pronto
