Ronald

[PenlanJack]

Whittaker scored a hattrick in a cup game then got left out of the squad on the weekend.. then everyone said he had a bad attitude.. Vipotnik doesn't run about but bangs them in, Piroe didn't run around but scores.. but fans didn't call them lazy or crap when given a proper run.. Gyokeres didn't get a run, Joseph didn't and Whittaker didn't.. Cullen did.. can you see clubs queuing up to sign Cullen for millions? He runs about and points a lot and doesn't score enough.. but he's one of our own and people are biased.. nobody likes the truth

Ronald absolutely awful professional player, should be playing with Cheltenham or Haverfordwest imho

The admirable work rate is what keeps getting Ronald selected.
Other than that he is literally the only Brazilian that cant play football.
Thomas Woodward had 15 minutes on the pitch and one opportunity to get into the sort of positions that Ronald gets into multiple times per game - he immediately picked out his striker for an assist.
I am afraid you either have it or you dont.

Should be converted to a right back.

He should swap positions with Key who is better than him on the right side further forward.

I think you hit the nail squarely on the head there. Also Woodward being a local boy being very grateful and proud to get a first team game played with heart. Ronald doesn’t have the same motivation. I’d much rather the likes of TW come through the ranks and try their hardest even if sometimes things don’t come off then have Ronald there just going through the motions. We need players hungry for success HERE not elsewhere because they think they’re “too big for the Swans”. Get rid I say.

I’ve said that maybe 3-5-2 is the way to go and have wing backs instead of wingers. This current model doesnt create enough chances. Remember how Laudrups played Wayne Routledge through the middle and that coincided with some of the greatest football the swans have ever played?

Wouldn't be at all surprised if we shipped Ron off, and he makes it under a manager who teaches him to just drill it across goal. Still think he's a good player when just going direct, he's just got the brain of a bat
