Scoring goals doesn’t really seem to be our problem right now.
Rodders has saved our season so far.
If he gets injured or loses form we are in serious trouble.
We have to have another credible option.
Rutter could be viewed as the insurance policy in this context.
The leaky bucket at the back will give us sleepless nights though for the rest of the season.
Pretty excited by this I am. £30m never thought I'd see the day when we would spend this onna player at 20 who knows could be a world beater on our hands......
BTW anybody knows what's the story with sinisterra how much longer is this guy out for??
Hi everyone. I’ve just looked on Wikipedia for further information on our prospective new signing Georginio Rutter. It bodes well. According to Wikipedia he is 20 years old and was born in Paris. More interestingly however is his height…… they have him down at 2.54m tall, which in old school terms means he’s effectively 8ft 4 inches tall. WOW !! Imagine him on corners/free kicks or even the long ball over the top. See attachment marching on giant strides together

Still wouldn't be able to reach the whispering twins set pieces.
They've conveniently missed out the fact he weighs 34 stone and has an impressive limp (due to one leg being 6 inches longer than the other) .
I expect that will be found out at the medical, hopefully

We weren't far off when we signed Aaronsen - £25m for a 21 year old.
