2021/22 Salomón Rondón

[Tel001]

agreed. did you know before he left Newcastle in 2019, he was voted by the fans as their player of the year?

do you realise that their fans also go topless to games while it’s snowing?

You don't make any sense, you're not using a very good comparison, a bloke whose previous biggest club he has been at is Newcastle or WBA and he is 32, has plenty of games under his belt for judgments to be made, Dobbin doesn't. Strikers don't normally improve at 32 especially after semi retiring in China for 2 years

they do from the first ball of pre season, after they're out of condition. I think youll find a distinct improvement once he's match fit.

Honestly hope you're right but you have to admit that he's been genuinely shocking so far.

Again, big thanks to Mosh and Brands for this signing. Solid gold thread fume, the stuff GOT thrives on.

mainly anonymous, I've seen much worse starts. the thing is, we know he's done it before, he's a known quantity, i'm v confident he will improve as his fitness improves

Kevin Campbell took a few games to get going, then boom!

However, I don't think Rondon will be our new Super Kev. Looks more Meh Kone to me at the moment.

no indeed. But he's cover, the Josh King role. And at that, I think he will be more than fine.

Not for £190k a week Kev

 

[Toff33Blues99]

Seriously bad player, makes Brett Angell look world class

He's on closer to £300k a week I hear Chris

Bus horse.

There was a point in the match where he was literally walking at the edge of the Norwich box when a ball came into nobody. I take the point that it's early days, but surely that's not acceptable. If he was that knackered, he should have been subbed. Still hope he comes good though for all our sakes.

can you imagine how exhausting it must be to be up front on your own against 3 centre backs, having played three games in a week (your first games in four months)

 

[lancs blue]

Bring back the Yak. I'm sure some of kenwrights magic pills will work wonders

 

[Terrarian]

It was a panic signing and I would prefer not to be calling a player back up, ideally you want said back up to be providing competition for his place to keep them on their toes. No good for us if DCL thinks he's un-droppable, he needs pushing to keep his levels up.
