The lad looks tidy and clinical. If Oscar plays Ulloa and Spanish Rodney together the rest of the Championship is going to have to be on code brown for the foreseeable future.

I am very excited seeing this video, looks like he has an amazing finishing touch and deadly accuracy, certainly looks promising

2 footed and got an eye for the goal, don't think he looks that quick though myself.

Everyone looks clinical in a highlights video - every shot is a goal. Hopefully you're right though. He should have more pace than we're used to (without CMS or a fit Buckley), and he had a good attitude in his interview.

Sorry chaps but when the highlights video is all about, slo-mo, camera trickery, celebrations, repeats and flashy editing it can only mean one thing:-

puerta del granero Rodney

(Barndoor Rodney).

I hereby pronounce Rodney an epic failure of Trusson proportions.

How not to make a highlights video.

Anyone know why Celta released him? If he's that good that wouldn't have happened...

I think he was out of contract in the summer and not playing regularly, plus most Spanish clubs bar the top 3 or 4 are skint due to their economy going belly up so it's one off the wage bill. By mutually cancelling his contract it probably meant Celta didn't have to pay him off.

Looks decent enough. He can clearly finish and a lot of his goals are due to him running in behind the defence. Different to Ulloa and may compliment him nicely

Yes but you've got to compare him against the speed of Championship defences rather than your 100m splits.

Similar to Barnes in that he gets himself into good positions. If that's correct but he's more clinical, then great. Sincerely hope we don't get to see too much of him though (because Leo gets his mojo back and is breaking goal scoring records).

So how do all this lot fit into 1 up front? Ulloa, Obika, Rodriguez, CMS, Hoskins.

Ulloa up front by himself. Against the right opposition, D2 out wide a la Barnes. Obika on the bench. CMS on the bench at best because he will come back lacking his one great asset, his pace. Won't see Hoskins until March/April or he'll breakdown in first game back. Hope that helps.
