Very encouraging comments.

I remember him as a midfielder too.
 
“Rodwell is excellent quality but he might be employed better in a system which employs a single deep sitting centre mid, rather like Campo at Bolton a few years back. “

Sounds like someone ideally suited to our system. Better players will always play better in better team, too. Either way, he looks like a good option for cover.

UTB
 

Cheers Panchero!

My Sunderland pal just got in touch and said that Rodwell is much better as an attacking midfielder than a defender. I said that's fine, in our overlapping system he will have to do both anyway!
 
Thanks Roy.

To add to this from a rovers fan I know in real life, "he's not got anywhere near the energy required to play for you lot, decent touches and all that but can't see how he'd keep up in your team".

It seems attitude will be the key, and I got the impression be turned up when he felt like it for rovers
 
Does his signing mean we can let Besic go back and bring in another loan
 
Sunderland fans appear to have gotten hold of the wrong end of the stick here. CW didn't mention the fans at all, he said 'there's a club in the north east who might be having a chuckle', and then went on to point the finger at the former CEO.
 



Interesting the vast majority of Blackburn fans see him as a midfielder.

Good.

Bash is in the form of his life, but there's a couple in midfield who recently have let their standards slip and could do with looking over their shoulders instead of knowing they are a shoe in for the first XI week in week out.
 
“We want the Sunderland view from!!”

By premier league standards 10/11 of our team have played an awful lot of football. Hopefully we can bring in 2 or 3 to allow Wilder to mix it up a bit more.

One scenario I've seen is Besic on a perm - he's got 12 months left at Everton, and that opens another loan up
 

Cheers Roy , some good comments on there but I’m gonna reserve my judgement.. one of my best mates is a Sunderland season ticket holder & he is scathing about him .
 
Roygbiv have a little look on Sunderland's forum, currently a 100+ thread on Wilder's SSN comments earlier and about signing Rodwell. He's wound them up somein rotten.
 
I’m surprised at this, my gut reaction is that this won’t work out. I might be wrong but he just doesn’t seem to have the drive/desire/heart/determination to make a difference. He comes across as the polar opposite of Bash. I hope I have to hold my hand up and say I was wrong, we’ll see.
 



Couple of points; I have not looked at League 1 much (EFL on Quest) this season, but didn't realise they were doing so badly

Second point; (off topic, based on the above link) looks like Bolton already have one foot in League 2.

Yehhh, they've fucked it again. They needed to get up last season, now they're doing an 'us' but worse league positions. Normally like Sunderland and their fanbase bit reading that thread some of em have trumpets stuck up their anuses.
