I read in one report that, for his second yesterday, Rogers "pounced on a loose ball" (or something along those lines).

In reality it was a great pass from Lindy. Bordering on Pau-esque

We needed a squad filling centre back at a time when we had no money to spend. To pick up a 31 year old with 73 caps and who is the captain of Sweden, and with club experience at the top level was excellent business in the circumstances.
Yep, give Monchi a bit of credit for that one for sure!

I also noticed that, it was on the BBC, in an article about Rogers and the 'other' England no 10s.

Looks like a pensionable version of Pau at the back. Purring like an old Jaguar at the moment but could turn into a Citroen with a wetbelt if we are up against it anytime soon.
He uses both feet i noticed so is no 'Jake the Peg'
Fair play to him

I'm impressed so far. Exactly what you want from a second choice (and he for RCB, and with the way he's playing could even be ahead of Mings too, given Torres is first choice on that side.

Can't fault him at all so far, especially as a free agent.

Agreed. Unsung hero for me. He’s no Pau with his passing but he’s done really well in pure defending

Good player when in a good team. Has not remotely let us down when he's been called upon.

What do Man U do to 80% of their players? They consistently make the good look shite.
