I don't think we've seen enough of Rondon to see if he's a keeper.
As his fitness improves, so will his pace, touch and confidence. I think we should judge him in March.
I would have Gayle back as a second choice striker, simply because he is better than Joselu and Perez.
Ultimately though, if Rondon stays, we need a quality number 10 to play off him.
And also will we pay the money they want if we decided to keep him
I wouldn't put Rondon in goal like!Quote:

Use him properly and he could become a worthy number 9 that we've all been accustomed to over the years. (obviously not the latter years)
If we could do a straight swap for Gayle or at least close to it with sensible wages ( as sensible as the climate dictates in today's mental market), then it's a no brainer as long as his strengths are played to and he's willing to take on the pressure pot number 9 mantle.
I knew someone would say that! 😀😀Quote:
