He was certainly on a mission last night. He was flying into a lot of challenges , I'm not sure whether to prove something to himself or Bobby (in terms of his fitness) but he looked very sharp last night. Maybe trying to play himself into Cup Final contention ? He sures adds some pace over 5 yards that is lacking with Barry , Milner and Garcia. I think a lack of pace in centre midfield was our chief undoing in the Champions League this season and on that basis I think Rodwell will be a hugely important player for us.
I wasn't there last night, and its hard to make out the Rodwell stuff on the internet feeds - if this is true, that's great news. I hope he stays fit, fulfils his potential and becomes the great asset we hoped for.
As to the Tevez stuff, I disagree with the OP. He hasn't quite had the goals return we'd want, but nor have any of the other forwards. He's never had great pace. Can't fault him though for effort, and I agree with Nijinsky.
