He was the difference between our first half and second. Outstanding player, get his fitness up and he can be something special.

100%. Spot on.

My concern is he's been fit for a while now and played a lot of first team football. However, he still always seems to drop 25% come 55-65 minute mark. Hopefully he can kick on, exactly the type of football I enjoy watching

Aye, it is annoying. In the league I think he usually has a great first half, dips at the start of the second then gets a second wind. In Europe we can't afford that 15-20 mins of "down time" though

Rogic is like a cross between Paddy McCourt and Zidane...

All of Paddy's class but and engine like Zizou.

Agree with Simon, thought he ran out of steam after half an hour and started giving the ball away.

I'd rather have a 60minute Rogic than no Rogic at all.

He reminds me of Moravcik the way he seems to juggle the ball about through people.

He's the main creator in our team, against better teams he'll give the ball away but he's the one that drives us forward so it's worth it.

Not lubos class though dude

Lubo was more like silvas class

Literally the worlds most underrated player - would have graced.any side

Never said he was Lubo, just the closest player we've had to him since. Maybe Naka too.

Just seems to get by the opposition.

Maybe more naka

Id still take naka though!

Its the fact he is in the middle - whenever he drops deep it scares me a wee bit

The players who are trying to create chances always give the ball away much more than say a Bitton type, because they have to take risks and are usually playing those passes in the final crowded third of the pitch.

I remember back when Lennon & Squarebaw had the highest passing stats in brittish football coz they rarely made forward passes.

His fitness is down to him not growing up playing normal football.

He was a futsal player who won a Nike competition that eventually earned him his first pro contract, he's not got that in built fitness from training daily like most players.

Hopefully now that he seems to be avoiding injuries he can improve his core fitness.

Spot on. Especially against better teams he'll give it away but also the on making things happen. Not at Naka or Lubo level yet but with fitness could be top class.
