Rojo's Modern Life! - The Marcos Rojo Thread

Amazed we didnt let him go - Everton were willing to pay actual money for him.

 

This would appear to be confirming the rumors that Ole is a fan of Rojo's

Comments like that make me lose faith in him. Rojo is easily the least talented CB we've had in our team for decades. Hes barely PL quality. His idea of defending is throwing himself hard into challenges he knows he can win and standing 10 feet off an attacker the rest of the time. But without a doubt the worst qualities he has are when he has the ball. Rather than look for any easy passes his default nature is to try a 50 yard long ball, which in itself is dumb, but to make it worse he lofts the ball rather than drive it to ensure our forward has no chance to win it. He is the worst mistake LvG made in his time here just slightly ahead of having Phil Jones take corner kicks.

I hate him.

 

Yes, I'm losing faith in Oles ability to manage. Some of the decisions he makes just seem to be opposite of what he should be doing.

 

Hopefully, he is hyping him for a sale.

 

double bluff..

Man, I cannot say enough about Ole's decision making when it comes to getting rid of dross. He could get a lifetime role at the club just for his subtractions alone.

 

The MEN are running with the story of Rojo's impending departure as well.

There's been a pic of him in a PSG kit making the rounds today, but despite how good it looks, not sure it's entirely legit, but who knows.
In any regard, it seems that his time as a United player has come to an end. The guy could be reckless to say the least but I liked that when he did play, he was totally committed to the cause.
And whatever good moments he's had, were definitely at CB. Always amazed me how poor he was at LB, considering he was pretty good for Argentina in that spot during the WC in Brazil

 

If he actually wore another teams kit out in public then he can ******** right off. Or he can just ******** right off because he’s a terrible footballer that has no business at a decent club. He’s a fake hard man that only knows how to hoof the ball forward. He should thanks his lucky stars he ever got to play here and now leave.

 

Standard of play in international football is generally levels below professional football.

 

A little more context on the pic that was going around yesterday (the one on the top right).

Hope its true..

 

We will always have that run we made under LVG with him and Phil Jones as our CBs.

 

During that run we essentially played with 6 CBs. We setup games to try and win 1-0 and ended most 0-0 or 0-1.

 

Under LVG I think we scored 2 goals against Southampton with 1 shot on target. We also looked an utter abomination. I think that was when we had 5 at the back, and at times we literally only moved the ball forward by giving it to a CB and them trying to carry it 80 yards up the pitch as there was NEVER anyone to pass to.

 

Rojo Estudiantes bound?

Also from today's press conference, Rojo will not be leaving the club this month according to Ole.

 

Ole is just dropping bad news after bad news.


Im still not sad or surprised

 

Not sure why his Everton move was blocked in summer. Fexking No direction

 

As reported earlier by the Beeb and Simon Stone, all the major outlets are now following suit and confirming the story about Rojo going back to Argentina at Estudiantes.

Ole continuing to cut out the fat out of the club: best part by far of his tenure as manager thus far.

 

Shame it's only a loan..

 

C u e season-ending injury to Jones.

 

Still have 4 CBs at minimum ahead of him once everyone is fit. Not too worried about Jones right now in the least to be perfectly honest.

 

Rojo coming back in the summer will be like a new signing....
