2021/22 Salomón Rondón

[mccole]

Miles off the pace which is worrying especially with not much options.

He hasn't played at a decent level for over a year so how long he'll take to get up to speed is anyone's guess

It's not looking promising, is it?

 

[balggy]

As a premier league centre forward you need to be absolutely rapid or an absolute beast who can bully defenders. I thought Robison was supposed to be the latter, but he didn’t work the defence tonight. Looked well off the pace.

 

[Simon Buttle]

We would probably be better/quicker telling Big Dunc to get his boots back on

 

[maccavennie]

Hopeless in the air - lacks everything imo...

Won nothing, was never in front of his man, didn't hold thr ball up, yards behind the play.

Hopeless is definitely the right word to use Joey.

Out of curiosity, do you have the same opinion about James? Free transfer, wages equate to about £16m over two years for him.

I suppose I am saying - what is the going rate for an average premier league player? £20m I’d guess plus wages.
Picking someone up on a free is cheaper than buying someone, but they can demand higher salary.
Rondon is a “cheap” back up when both dcl and richarlison are unavailable. He is not here to start every match.
James - I have no idea what his wages are. They changed every week.

Moves in Geological time

No one with any sort of aspirations would have signed him. Kind of signing id expect from a poorly run promoted side.

C'mon folk, we wrote Big Denis Straq off and he turned out boss. I'm confident SalRon will turn out the sane

You think he will turn out like Leroy Sane?

 

[LocalNative]

Imagine any other team in world football having both Rondon and Tosun as backup strikers ?

 

[Deulofeumygod]

Doesn’t win headers, doesn’t run, doesn’t shoot and got outfought by nobodies.

 

[Street end man]

Had high hopes for this lad, prayed he'd roll back to his Malaga years. Sadly he's reminding me of a subbuteo player with a bit of Blu tac stuck to its base

 

[windymiller]

Honestly, he's just about the slowest player I've ever seen. I'm not sure all the fitness training in the world is going to have much of an impact on that. £90k a week for two years! I hope there's a club in the UAE looking for a forward next summer.

Embarrassing that.
