Joe Rodon

Post by Cjay »

Out of the blue
Basically gone from buying USMNT to the Welsh one :twisted:

25 year old centre back.

6ft4 ball playing right sided cb.

Very highly rated at one point with his Championship performance for Swansea in his early 20s earning him a high profile move to Tottenham.

Hasn't really worked out and he spent last season on loan at Rennes in Ligue 1 which didn't work out either with Rennes not activating their option to buy.

I wonder if this has come from Ethan - helping a mate out to get back to the English league system! With Koch, Llorente and Wober away and Cooper now injured he might be needed, and probably wouldn’t be out of place in the Championship, to be fair.

Surprised he's given up the podcast to come to Leeds.

Wouldn't be shocked if it includes an option to buy (Rennes had one).

But not at anything like the same price as Rennes please (18mil)


Would need to be half that for me.

Decent pedigree

Lost his way a bit.

Suits the way Farke wants to play

Nice to see a new face come in. Appears to be a solid player and for obviously a reasonable price. Things were starting to look grim there for a moment.

Joe Rodon - Would this make it 3 out of 3 signings that look full of common sense and good potential ? Or does it look like a punt on a roulette wheel, stab in the dark, Monkey with a pin.

Dan James and Tyler Roberts are Welsh Internationals too.
But better than signing , and gambling on, someone because they are from ( and failed at) Barcelona or Bayern Munich.

How quickly have we gone from building a team around the Ametican National Team to the Welsh one?

I remember O'Leary saying that he wanted to build a team mainly with players from these islands. It is certainly a less risky strategy, particularly in the Championship me thinks.

Let's hope he breaths fire.
