Rodallega

[Mathewbet1]

Yes, No maybe?

 

Every time I see him he looks lightening quick and very direct.

[Guest TK-421]

Yes. I'm voting "yes" for all of these threads. Eagles, Rodallega, Neville...get 'em in.

[Guest PurpleNose]

Sounds like Cisse.

Liverpool have been linked with a shock summer move for Colombian striker Hugo Rodallega.

 

The Premier League forward has impressed since moving to England in 2009, and now Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez is contemplating a move when the transfer window re-opens this summer.

 

Wigan signed Rodallega from Mexican league side Necaxa, where the forward had an impressive scoring ratio of almost a goal every other game in his two years at the club.

 

A deadline day switch in January saw Rodallega join Steve Bruce's side for €4.8 million, and he ironically made his debut against the Reds.

 

An instant hit with the Latics faithful, Rodallega maintained his place in the side despite the exit of Bruce and arrival of Roberto Martinez.

 

The 24-year-old has impressed so far in the current campaign too, and scored the winner against Liverpool in the Premier League fixture earlier this month.

 

Anfield boss Benitez has been linked with a host of strikers over the past months, with Kenwyne Jones and Gonzalo Higuain just two players reportedly on the Spaniard's wish list.

 

With finances tight in Merseyside, Rodallega would appear to be more in the price range of the club, although the American owners would deny that finances dictate the transfer policy at the club.

 

Rodallega is aware of the speculation though, moving to distance himself from the ruours of a potential move.

 

"There are many rumours about several teams but nothing is concrete until the market opens for players in June," said the Colombian international.

 

"We're talking about a very large, very established top club that is practically historical in England."

OMG he's 24, no way.

[Mathewbet1]

I like him would be good backup to Torres and can play in the hole or on the wing.

I think he's pretty decent. His goalscoring record is similar to Dirk's though and most people aren't happy with that.

he looks a much better option than Kuyt to be fair

 

*edit* for the starting XI

[Sol18]

No thank you, I think Hugain is a better option.

[Stu Monty]

He looks a bit like a lesbian. Whether that's something to consider when weighing up a purchase is up to the individual, I suppose.

obviously - but considerably more expensive - lol

On what basis? He's a striker. Kuyt's a right winger. They've got similar goals to games ratios.

Didn't stop us buying Lucas.

[Monster Masch]

We are also linked with Javi Martinez today.

[Funkasy]

Silly season comes early this year.

[Heinze]

he's no noriega.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Or Arsenal from buying Nasri.

 

 

Total lesbian, that bloke.

We've been linked to him before. I think he has the potential to be very, very good.

[El Rojo]

Rodallega, Figueroa...magnifico? no! no! no! no! no!

 

Beelezebub has a Ribery put aside for meeee, for meeee for MEEEEEE!

[Stu Monty]

he's no noriega.

 

We'll see. I'm still far from convinced that Rodallega wasn't installed in the Wigan side by the CIA to further the USA's strategic pie interests.

[Newport]

Sounds like Cisse.

 

He reminds me very much about Cisse. He can be fantastic at times, but most of the time he's shite and some of his misses are shocking, especially compared to what he does when he's good.

[dennis tooth]

Or Arsenal from buying Nasri.

 

 

Total lesbian, that bloke.

 

Isn't that the bird who used to be on BBC news?

 

I'd take Roddallega any day and I've said that since he first kicked a ball for Wigan. I'd take Benitez at Birmingham as well but Hugo is better.

I'm almost considering a "footballers who look like lesbians" thread. I think it's got legs. Stumpy hairy legs, but legs no less.

Now there's a thread I can get behind.
