Joe Rodon

[Sean]

I'd suggest the opposite. He's been downgraded from 14 that he's had to give up for Perisic.

Place holder for before he moves

 

[Get in!]

Rennes doing us a favour after their skulduggery in the Conference League last season?

No no no, you have it all wrong. The skullduggery was all on our part. We told them not to accept a rescheduled game, so we have a plausible excuse to bin the ECL, and we'll let them have first dibs on Rodon in return. 4D chess, mate.

 

[Shotgunofmichalebrow]

Wish him well nice lad, hope he tears it up.

 

[Deuterz]

20 years from now, Rodon is going to reflect back on his Spurs career and not remember a single moment or game that he played for us.

I'm sure he'll remember making his debut vs Chelsea at the Bridge and helping us keep a clean sheet .. but yeah otherwise, very forgettable time here.

 

[KEDS]

He’ll be alright. It’s Twitter, I’ve seen worse about our defenders even during their good patches.

The goal he was at fault for seems like communication issue and what not having much game time can do.

 

[bk_spur]

He scored the opener last night. Rennes won 3-1.

Really glad for him- he looked really happy/relieved to have scored.

 

[ShutUpPatrik]

Bloody hell, he's fallen hard hasn't he!?

Still I understand brickies are on almost as much as Premier League footballers these days.

Know him do you!?

 

[KaneDomBadBoy]

This guy might be the worst player to ever put on a Spurs shirt. His performance against the US is nothing short of shocking. Speaks volumes about our recruitment prior to Paraticci

 

[bk_spur]

Played alright, and I'm happy seeing him have relative success in France and with Wales, but watching him against the USA today didn't give me any regrets about Spurs moving him on.

 

[NotThatTedHughes]

Another disaster Hitchen signing. That man was utterly useless.

Come on.
Half the board here were gagging for him to start.
As I’ve said repeatedly, always tons of praise for non-participants.
Hopefully, we’ll recover most of his transfer fee.

Who makes up this nonsense? Shame on those of you who take it as gospel..4th choice yet has started and completed all the games Rennes has had more or less. Joe Rodon - Stats 22/23

Thanks for posting that. Yes all games except last month when league games were played when he had flu/other health issues.

From what Rennes and French media have said, its more about Rennes long term defensive injuries coming back which means that Rodon's place has now come into question, rather than the players form. So it looks as though Rodon can definitely 'hack it' in the French league (in addition to Championship and Wales National Team)

 

[Matt1882]

It makes me laugh when people point this out. It makes perfect sense to try something else no matter how big a reach. The alternative is what Einstein called the definition of madness.

The coaches know what the alternatives can do. Rodon and Tanganga have failed to impress 3 consecutive coaches.

The problem ain't the coaches.

 

[Right as Rain]

Haha… no thanks

 

[GGTH]

Rodon made a marauding run with the ball, misplaced his pass, and Lille scored on the counter while he was still out of position.

 

[Maccer]

Yeah but Ange might bring the best out of him ??

Since Poch left I can't think of any players who have been improved by the subsequent managers, either ones who were already here or new signings.
Let's hope Ange can change that.

 

[dondo]

Thought he looked pretty decent when he got the chance to play. I'd keep him over Dier for sure.

That was 2 years ago now, his form has dipped big time since. He needs to go and play regularly at a lower level to get his confidence back

 

[1882]

If he comes back, then I think Ange is only looking at him with a view to recommending him to Celtic.

They're OUR feeder club NOW!

 

[Paul Gascoigne]

Yeah but Ange might bring the best out of him ??

Having watched him for Wales, I have changed my mind !!

 

[DeadlyDefoe]

Watched the Wales Armenia game...Armenia could have started with the two youngest Kardassian sisters up front. Rodon and Mepham were hysterical bad. Whomever scouted Rodon I hope they are no longer at the club... If you cancel Aurier and Doherty's contracts you have to do this blokes they have forgotten more about football than this lad will ever know.

 

[Skippa18]

Both Mourinho and Conte stated that Dier was some sort of top class defender. Surely that was being more charitable than giving Rodon a run in the team.

Think it's because on the surface Dier has all the fundamentals.

He's strong, fast enough, good header, decent passer. Seems like he reads the game well.

But then he plays and when he's not on form he's mistake riddled and makes poor decisions doesn't engage when he should backs of too much
