Ricardo Rodriguez

This is THE DEAL I want. If nothing else, this HAS to be wrapped up by 9/2.

More links with him coming out today then.

Lad SEEMS to me to be better at going forward. But hes got tons of energy with a great left footed cross. And was supposedly the best LB in the Bundesliga last season Also might be a threat to Edens penalty taking.

Compred to Leighton Baines

How strange would it be to see an actual LB playing at LB for Chelsea again? RR + new CB will make a world of difference.

If there's one position over the years we've for some bizarre reason struggled at it's left back. We've had some good un's some dreadful ones and some who are not natural left backs Gallas, Dave, Andy Myers, Mal Donaghy, Le Saux started as a left winger.

Koulibaly, Rodriguez and James/striker = 10/10

[Special Juan 28,112]

Not convinced it's time to get the wanking sock out yet.

Like I said earlier in this thread, don't think defensively RR has what it takes to succeed in the PL given how pacey and direct the league is. When I watch him defend it doesn't inspire me with confidence, and he clearly lacks the recovery speed to make up for his mistakes like Zouma. 

I'm just happy it looks like we're after a LB and not gonna continue the Azpi at LB nonsense. There's no doubt RR has class offensive talent though.

If we sign him, we'll have one of the best pure crossers in the league, another bonafide Penalty Taker, and a serious FK taker as well. Praying he proves me wrong defensively, because Hazard and RR attacking down the left side is ridiculous.

ha Yep.

To be honest I really didn't like Cashley as a man but I'd take him back tomorrow.

An In form left footed LB for chelsea? we can only hope its true! but as with all rumours im holding out hope until he is holding up the shirt.

Finally, we are showing interest in Rodriguez.

He's another Baba except he's slow as fuck, rumour seems like BS.

I think terrible is a bit a of a stretch and his passing, crossing and freekicks cant even be compared to baba
