Somewhere down the lane, a licky boom boom down
Him being played as a full back has nothing to do with not paying attention to the ball during a corner.
Not true at all.Rojo is usually very strong in the air.
There was one point where it looked for all the world that he was going for one of his trademark hoofs, and I was about to lose my shit... but then he almost did a hoof-fake and played a nice pass inside.Yeah he was poor as LB but it wasn't surprising he was sent on. His poor clearance could have cost us considering they were very dangerous from set pieces.
Saying that his passing is good, at the end he picked up few nice passes when pressed. His composure was impressive. When he plays as CB, it would be good to see him carrying the ball forward from deep. It will push our midfielders bit higher on the pitch.
I think I was talking about the same play, it looked like he lost the ball but then he made a nice pass.There was one point where it looked for all the world that he was going for one of his trademark hoofs, and I was about to lose my shit... but then he almost did a hoof-fake and played a nice pass inside.
Tbh, I've got this growing feeling he might get sent off tonight if he's playing! Don't know why, just that maybe his timing still isn't quite there considering the amount of time he's been out because of his injury. That & the fact that unpredictable Mike Deane is the referee.Wonder if Rojo will manage to get himself Christmas off again this year?
He's managed it a couple of times already in the last few years...he's only a booking away from it this time round, I'd expect no booking tonight, and then a scything challenge against Leicester to earn himself Boxing Day off...
Rojo has proven himself rash at times so wouldn’t surprise anyone if he was red carded at some point.Tbh, I've got this growing feeling he might get sent off tonight if he's playing!

Agreed. He has been pretty awful since he's returned. Boots the ball long way too often, gets beaten in the air, and is way to rash in challenges. Would have much rather seen Tuanzebe get game time in a game like today.At fault for both goals tonight. Ball watched twice as they just ran passed him and scored.
Pathetic performance tonight, braindead.
That's no excuse for some of his poor decision making and poor anticipation. He actually looked very good in his first two games back and has progressively got worse since. The penalty giveaway against Watford should've warranted a straight red card. He almost scored an own goal against Bournemouth and he's been losing more aerial battles than winning them.It's almost as if an ACL injury takes time to recover from. He needs minutes to return to full mach sharpness.
Thanks Captain Obvious!It's almost as if an ACL injury takes time to recover from. He needs minutes to return to full mach sharpness.
First one yes, although it was a 1 in 100 strike.Didn't see the match, just the highlights, but it looked like both goals were mostly his fault. Not tracking runners at all.
Both he should have been following.First one yes, although it was a 1 in 100 strike.
Second one no, that was on McTominay. It was his runner.
Of course he does. But hes also competing for a spot in the first team and getting chances and we're relying on him to do a job when he does that. So far he's been at the same level as Lindelof when he first arrived, an accident waiting to happen. Perhaps he should be playing with the u23s until he gets up to speed and looks even half the player he was last season and then get another chance in the first team.It's almost as if an ACL injury takes time to recover from.

For the second goal, Bristol's player literally ran infront of Rojo and Rojo was standing his ground like a statueFirst one yes, although it was a 1 in 100 strike.
Second one no, that was on McTominay. It was his runner.
