He took up some great positions, on defenders shoulders and in space, but was frequently disappointed when he wasn't played in WHY don't we play balls into the channels now and again? Does EVERYTHING have to go wide?

 

[Quinney]

Looks a very good player. Longer contract would be nice.

It was like watching CMS making those same runs and the ball not going forward quick enough.

 

[Silverhatch]

Oscar & Jonesy were going mad when Rodney was making runs and no one was hitting the channel balls. Think they'll be working on that next week.

On the one showing I think he looks an improvement on what we had Stevens on the other hand had a solid game but angain this is only on the one showing did not look like much of an improvement

Agree, although I think Stephens will grow into it. Just want Oscar to keep that team together now for a few games, get a bit of consistency and togetherness, and give the few that need it that match sharpness. A promising start that can be built on.

How fast is he, to give me an accurate idea what sort of animal could he out run?

Impressive

 

[perseus]

Hes ****ing brilliant

Rodríguez Sánchez reminded me of David Beckham's debut at the Goldstone. His skill his just ****ing ridiculous!

All teams have just have gotta watch this player !!!!

 

[The Truth]

I'm sure Rodrigeezer could out run a John Terry in terms of animals.

 

[Triggaaar]

Impressive

Indeed. Yesterday seemed like the first time in a long time that we've played with any pace.

 

[goldstone rocks]

Very promising debut for a player who has hardly played competitive footie for a few months and so tired at the end with cramp. A genuine two footer is very unusual and creates further problems for defence as he can go either side with comfort. Virgs on radio was right re Solly needing to improve on right foot esp as a left footie playing on right. I think Rodders could prove a real handful if we get the ball in the channel early. Doncaster played a real high line - the opposite of most teams who sit deep against us. We weren't prepared for that and I think struggled to change our style in getting balls over the top of full backs for our wide players who have pace.

 

[fleet]

Was very impressed with him - lets hope he starts to find the net too

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

So have we got an option in his contract for next season or not ?

He just needs to time his runs better like Crofts did. If he arrived later at the far post a few times he might have got a couple of goals.

 

[dadams2k11]

We need the defence and midfield to look up a few secs earlier and ping the ball to Rodders out wide.

He got in some great position yesterday but was not spotted.

Once we got that right, and with his pace, I can see him getting a hat full of assist and chiping in with a few goals.

 

[trueblue]

This is not good at all. An almost entirely positive thread about one of our players. I suppose the usual boo boys haven't noticed him yet - once they realise it's not Buckley the moaning can start.

 

[LamieRobertson]

I thought he showed a lot of promise...will need to track back a bit better as a minor criticism

Well spotted, the high line which even caught Ward offside for the goal. The lino wasn't up with play though.
