Should never have signed him in first place 30 mill for a player who was going to be worth zilch at end of his contract and no great track record in England.
Overall a very poor return for our outlay.
Agreed Jonty
I like him, good attitude, likeable.
But financially it never made sense, and been hit and miss
If he had helped keep us in the Premier League then it would have been a reasonable investment. He was never bought with the intention of making money on him personally.
As it is, he didn't, so the investment didn't work. I wouldn't say that the signing didn't make sense, though.

Don’t think I will miss Rodrigo to be honest. Yes he had a better season last year but he’s not what we need in this league.
—————————————
Ya what, he’d rip the league up.
You need good players, which he is.
Right thing he has left (too cheap) but come on, he’d be best player in league
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Good players don’t always shine in this league. We need players with Championship experience.
I’m not saying he wouldn’t rip it up but I am saying I don’t believe that’s a given.
At 32 the player is on his last contract. Good luck to him. He seems a likeable guy who did try his best for us.
