Neal Posted September 1, 2018 Posted September 1, 2018 Did he play for the under 23's last night? Saw a tweet from Sharpe or have a misunderstood? Quote

The U23’s were poor last night. Everton were a class above. Could have won by 5 or 6. Makes me wonder how far off Rodwell is if he isn’t getting a game in there. 1 Quote
Stuart Posted September 1, 2018 Posted September 1, 2018 To be fair, the press might have had a field day with that one - with it being Everton. But I do think he’s nowhere near match fit. Quote

I don’t think cameos are the way forward. But he could get some decent/consistent game time in that side. Unless of course the plan is he will be considered for the first XI sooner than we thought. I did expect to see him on that team sheet last night regardless of the opposition. 1 Quote
Tyrone Shoelaces Posted September 2, 2018 Posted September 2, 2018 No point putting him in any game until he is fully match fit. Given his history of injury we need him to be fully ready. Having said that if he recently played in several friendly games for Watford he shouldn't be that far away. Quote
philipl Posted September 2, 2018 Posted September 2, 2018 Rodwell is reported to have worked extremely hard on his fitness through the summer. Very sensible to punt on a seasoned pro who has fallen to pieces as of late. However, we don't want a squad full of them as there are a lot of formerly big names not yet retired being offered around.

Yes I do. Just not against Everton for his first one. And him being physically fit is subjective. Edited September 2, 2018 by Stuart Quote

Our views on Danny Murphy came from what we saw with our own eyes. What Fulham fans saw at their club doesn't affect that. We have no direct. personal experience of Rodwell. We only have what Sunderland fans have to say, from their personal experience, including on here, and it seems damning to me! However we'll wait and see but if this is the centre-back option we so sorely need...... Quote

I'd be as angry as I was about Murphy if I had the misfortune to have been born on the Wear. As I wrote - a broken seasoned professional but if I may add, about ten years younger than Murphy was when he came to us. I wasn't one excited by the Whittingham signing but if the Rodwell gambit pays off, this could be massive for us. Only smaller than the word IF.... Quote
