Can anyone explain why Rogers is so highly rated?

He looks ok but hardly worth the suggested sums.

Spot on about ball carrying. There was times I thought I was watching prime dembele he was that good just galloping past people.

Hes abit of an odd one to me. I partially feel hes overrated but on the other hand his numbers and the way he drives with the ball and gets into the box to finish is impressive.

He is a perfect blend of dembele and deli in every single way.
He can carry and drive with the ball, strong as an ox, hard to stop.
But he can also ghost into those deadly areas in the box and beyond the striker and finish.

Having said that he can be prone to absolute stinkers, hes certainly not started this season very well and im not sure if thats coz his heads been turned or what.

Do i think hes worth 80-90m no, but as a Hg English player thats young thats what it would take.

I think now we have simons that we would be best served to get more of a pure winger like savio. He would create the chaos to allow space for simons in and around the box to use his fantastic shooting.
 
No.

Our strikers ain't good enough. Thats just a fact.

Look how good Vardy was that year for Leicester, as an example. A level above Solanke and Richarlison. At least one level.

Find this other quality attacking option, and we are maybe in the mix for top 3,but right now I still think we are looking at a squad capable of top 5 at best.

To be fair Leicester were almost 100% reliant on Vardy and Mahrez for goal scoring in a way that our squad theoretically doesn’t need to be. Agree one more bona fide attacking option would be huge, but I’m not overly worried about Richarlison/Solanke with Johnson, Simons, Kudus, theoretical new player, Kulusevski when healthy, etc. all able to chip in with a number of goals on top of the no. 9s in a way that Leicester’s supporting cast was not capable of doing.
 
Mate I’m terrified of fucking house spiders let alone wild Brazilian wildlife and was fine lol.

It’s amazing.

Saw sloths, tarantulas, pink dolphins, bush vipers toucans, parrots, caimen and swam with the dolphins and piranha.

Would not change that experience for the world.
To be avoided at all costs 😳 I came across them in Belize aka fer de lance 🐍....aggressive fuckers. Normally a snake will avoid humans and only strike once when it feels threatened and move away not these buggers they have been known to strike numerous times if disturbed.
 
5ft 10" is above average height in almost any country in the world.
Except....the Netherlands. Tallest country in the world.
Dutch men, on average, are 6ft 0
Make no mistake, anyone over 6ft is an anomoly, not the normal. They are giants, 5ft 10ers are not dwarfs.

***HOWEVER***

What I have seen many times over the years are men who say they're 5ft 10" when they're absolutely not. I have had many say that to me and I can see the top of their head. And I am definitely 5ft 9" :roflmao:
Are they seated when they tell you?
 
I keep it 100% and unlike some people on here I wasn't indulging in conspiracy theories when the Eze deal went tits up, no reactionary bollocks from me because I've seen it all before and in that same spirit I won't whip my dick out and jump up and down like a monkey because the guy at the top has finally managed to get a signing through the door.
Careful, you'll get sin binned for arguing with Preacher.
