Im not so sure, Ive seen enough of Rodders to know that he is not a premiership striker, The competition these days at clubs is great, But at latics it is easy, Rodders or Di Santo, i mean come on, records speak for themselves, They are not up to the job, balls to formations, if you can not score more than 2 goals a season as lead striker then something is dreadfully going wrong, think about it, you can bag a jammy one and a tap in at least a season, So why cant a wigan player score a goal. The Barcelona formation just does not work with inept, bog standard players. Diame is the biggest puzzler i think, the man obviously has talent but Martinez doesnt know how to use it. Much like Jewell, Hutchings and Bruce did not know how to use a player like Landzaat. The premiership just does not suit them. You have to rely on the likes of Nolan e.t.c nowadays, But is that a bad thing, bring on the championship, and its championship english players.
Oh and on the subject. I still stand by my claim that Hendry Thomas is one of the worst players i have ever seen.

Be interestin to see if “rodders” goes on to make it at a big prem club I honestly think he will, the best striker in the world wouldn’t top the scoring chart in the prem whilst at wigan!
That when Rodders “at last had someone upfront with him Sammon”!,we caused havoc in the City backline all be it for 8 mins and were unlucky not to score.
Why not bring him on at half time?
Why take Moses off when imo today was his best game since signing for the Tic’s?
How is it that next week against Brum Bobby won’t start with 2 upfront Rodders +Sammon together!.
After all were not desperate for points are we?
No wonder were propping league up!
Sorry but this Mon nice lad that he is,hasn’t got a clue.
If he hadn’t been so stubborn with his 4-5-1 system that every mon and his dog could see wasn’t working we wouldn’t be in the position we are today. :angry-banghead:

Messi would be made to look gash playing for us with Bob the master tactician calling the tune. :sad-roulette:
I think he’s already mentally away from the club. Counting down his days and going through the motions. I’d actually give ‘Sammo’ a start in front of him. Chances are we are probably going down, so better to start giving Sammo some game time.
I just hope we can get shut of Rodallega for a few million, try and get him sold for 8 or 10 million or something.
He is capable of scoring brilliant goals……but he is also capable of being garbage. He has the worst touch for a South American, that I have ever seen. He obviously didn’t grow up juggling coconuts to feed his family. If he had done, they’d have starved.
that alcaraz who is a centre half get in better postions than roder fookin laga :?
Take your point but think roder fookin laga needs “a mate” up front thought him wiv sammon looked ok at the end. wots our alternative de fookin santo?[/quote]
Dead Right ;) :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: [/quote]
roder fookin laga is nowhere near the player you think he is,cf/striker what ever you want to call him if he was as good has you think he would have been snapped up ages ago.I do believe that cf/strikers should be selfish and greedy but theres a time to be like that,not just last night but time and time again in other matchs he just needs to do the simple thing and lay the ball off.He thinks he has to score a wonder goal every week,i lost count last nght again how many times he needed to pass the ball but instead with 3 defenders on him choose to go for goal when mccarthy was free to the side of him unmarked.
