Nowack Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 He may not be that bothered about the money. To be fair he could phone (or fax) any club in the world and get a game if he wanted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's very highly rated and must be a good player to be in and around the Spain squad, but his goal record in the last 5 years is distinctly average. Be interesting to see how he does at Leeds.

Johnnyrotten Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 My recollection of that goal, on a freezing night with no atmosphere, was a scrambled effort. Watching that video, it was a class build up and goal. Mark Davies, what a natural talent, and Rodrigo too. Playing players out of position gets right on my nerves, what a waste of Rodrigo's time coming here, and if he'd been used correctly we'd have made a few million that might have staved off some of our financial troubles.

Aye Davies was a class talent with a lot more potential under the right manager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to norris episode on the under the cosh podcast mark davies was often on a bender around town so it sounds a lot like he pissed away a better career with less injuries as well.

I just got the impression at the time we could have kept him (ie signed him permanently) if we'd wanted, its not like any other club was desperate to have him, and he went to Valencia on loan as well. Whatever the circumstance, we definitely didn't get the most out of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BWFC_LOVE Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 I thought Rodrigo was criminally underused and never got a chance up top, despite starring for Spain U21s. I remember it being rumoured that he was to start up front before the Stoke game, and I was all for it. Instead we had an isolated Klasnic, who could hardly move on a big pitch and barely touched it. Not knocking Klasnic, I was a massive fan of him, and he deserved to start after scoring in several rounds. Just something I wonder about in hindsight. An quick unknown quantity who could’ve made a difference. And let’s not forget Elmander in centre mid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
