    He still holds the record as the best top scorer in on tournament -11 goals. He is a good striker just maybe not what he could contribute to the national team. As a super sub I think he could be very useful.

    Pinto's master plan dupleta of Rodallega and Darwin is slowly happening just as I expected.

    Watch out Copa America foes.;)

    that though of because you scored 9 goals per season is enough to have the spot of guys that scored 25 goals each season winning everything..........

    2016 he should have been called up for the Centenario in my opinion.
    It is crazy to me that he never was given a chance when someone like Berrio and Dayro and Copete were given chances.

    Berrio and copete are wings....i think that is the point

    Dayro maybe arguably but.......he was top scrorer of mexico in colombia in these periods........rodalllega have been decent.


    Agree he have to be called in 2016

    Yes, they were more wingers and really flourished in Rueda's system.
    It still makes me scratch my head that they were called but someone like Rodallega was never called.

    It sounds weird to you now because none of them is in good form. Vut when Pekerman called them, both were doing great, especially Berrio who was key figure in the great Nacional of 2014-2016.

    And also think that Hugo, which I personally like a lot, should've get at least one chance during Pekerman's era.

    It was even weird to me back then when they were in good form.

    But why? If a player was a factor in the team's Libertadores title usually it should be logical.

    I am not arguing on whether it was logical.
    I am saying it just felt weird that they would be called up and Roda would not at all.

    11 goals this season. (10 in league, 1 in Cup.)
    One of the hottest strikers in form right now.

    Seleccion? :p

    Damn, that's quite a finish. Rodallega has developed a better touch and learned to be patient after all these years. If he had that back in his EPL years, he would have been a force to be reckon with.

    Here is my crzd-esque hot take of the week:

    I would call him up over guys like Bacca, Santos Borre and Morelos at the current moment.

    Bacca shouldn’t be on the team. If we want to win consider taking Roda over the two younger guys. Think like Muriel Roda can play many attacking positions and support strikers as well as backup goalie

    Comes down if Copa America is to win it(hope so) or to try players before qualifiers

    Who ever is in best form come this summer + Falcao + James+ Ospina :) are my 23
