Weren't Swansea in the championship when we bought him?
He hasn't.Easily the worst performance I’ve seen from him. Looked like a player that hasn’t played many games lately.
Neither are good enough on the ball for this system.He hasn't.
He was definitely sloppy at times yesterday but he only had one really bad moment which was the poor back pass.
He clearly needs minutes, a loan would suit all parties.
Based upon what Tanganga has been putting out there recently though, hard to see why he's being picked over Rodon.

Yeah, it was a "Inter want £50m+ for Skrinrar" and Levy was like "nah, what can I get for 20p and a Freddo?"I didn't see much of him when he was there, but when I did he hardly stood out. Bit of a strange signing all round really and I really don't see a career for him either here or for any decent Premier League side. Not unless he improves big time.
Although right footed Rodon usually plays on the left.Has he ever played on the left? Can he play LCB so that when Dier returns we could go Romero-Dier-Rodon? Sanchez and Davies are uninspiring to say the least.

I’m inclined to agree with that last bit. I suppose it’s me throwing a dart at the wall hoping it hits. It’s just depressing seeing Davies, Sanchez and Tanganga trotted out time and time again with 4/10 performances and Rodon gets no chance.He has the mobility and agility of a tank which is why Conte said he's Dier's backup
He's not good enough for the level we want to be anyway, let's face it.

The Spurs fan in me knows he would likely cock it up too but it’s the mystery of the unknown for me that would like to see him given a run out.
That’s fair. I’m probably overreacting a tad from yesterdays display.Davies and Sanchez have been fine for the most part, when they're being martialled by Dier they are solid, obviously last night exposed a lot of their weakenesses but there's a some mitigating factors that some folk aren't seeing as to why they were bad.
I mean Rodon is clearly 5th choice for a reason and to be 5th choice in this defence you can't be up to much
