Having a dip in form undoubtedly but, as said further up, he just isn’t a 10.
More concerned about the manager - I still have high hopes for him but these last 3 results are identical to what Schofield, Fotheringham and Moore would have produced.
Losing 1-0 away to Cardiff midweek, following up with a tired second half against a far superior team and stinking out the place with Rotherham are not exactly surprising and far from unique,but to have no discernible influence is worrying.
I’m hoping that his hyper pragmatism is a (misguided) belief that crawling over the line is the way to avoid the drop and he will learn it isn’t.

He was dreadful today. Obviously not alone in that.
I’d leave him out and really mix it up next time out. Why didn’t Matos make an appearance today?
Not sure what was worse today - Rudoni or the Manager.

Drop him for next game, far too wasteful, and my 6 year old lad has more power in his shots. Overrated.

How ironic that we got rid of the dwarf with his pea-rollers and somehow managed for find another number 10 with the exact same shooting ability! Only town

Outstanding today and how We've missed him. I know that shooting isn't his strongest ability but his tireless runs into space were a joy to watch. If only his teammates had the vision to see them

If only his teammates had the vision to see them Totally agree, Pete, I reckon it's time to convert him to one of a 2 in front of a back 4, if he's still our player next season. He's fit, good in a tackle, decent in the air & his passing could help link defence to attack. The difference he made today was huge, I doubt he will be with us next year.

Despite the views of some on here, we really do play better with this lad in the side.

Amazing how we see different games guys.....i thought he was average at best but maybe it was me! Lees was outstanding and helik unsurprisingly good as well.....as ever for me this season we looked disjointed up top and our midfield passing is woeful.

We played reasonably well 1st half but capitulated 2nd. I thought we were the better side today for all but the first 20 mins of the 2nd, both Lees & Rudoni were our best 2 players today, IMO.

I had wondered how we'd do without him. I now have the answer! Just wish he could flippin shoot! Another weak shot which didn't trouble the keeper in the highlights after he'd got himself into a great situation. If he can somehow learn to shoot he'll be a real player. Looks like he'll be off anyway sadly.

For someone who plays so much in oppositions final third the end product just isn't there. His touch and approach play is good but then shits himself when he sees that thing called the goalposts

Fuck me, if people don’t like Rudoni, what on earth do they think of the rest of our midfield!

Even the goal came from another poor decision where he chose to shoot, scuffed it and fortunately it found its way to Koroma

Excellent yesterday. I don't expect Rudoni to score loads of goals, but he gets us in the right areas. If we had a semi-decent striker we'd be safe.

The worst thing about relegation is your best players leave for a fraction of their worth. About 2 million he’d leave for in the summer.

8 games without any goal contributions at a time of the season where we need our attacking minded players to step up. His general game is decent but when he gets into the final 3rd his head falls off.

He should produce much much more in final third--- let's face it he's the only fucker that gets in oppositions box which explains why we never get penalties too--- we don't get in their box enough whoever we play

Coventry put off by our £10m asking price! Crazy if true and far more along the lines of Peterborough hard ball approach. Brilliant if we are not giving players away like the great give aways recently like Toff and O'Brien.

Brilliant if we are not giving players away like the great give aways recently like Toff and O'Brien. It's a fine line for the club to tread. Yes we want to get the maximum we can for them but it's also great to keep our better players if we're to bounce straight back. The problem is how much use they are when they're staying here reluctantly. We've seen it with our own eyes in the last few weeks that they don't particularly care. It was the same for Leeds last summer with Nonto. He wanted out but nobody matched Leeds valuation and he had to stay. He actually knuckled down and got on with it and hopefully some of ours do the same. £10 million for Rudoni is crazy though. Great engine, tries to make things happen but his actual ability to do so isn't quite there. Factor in that he panics so much that he forgets how to kick a ball properly when faced with a chance and £5 million would be fantastic business.

If he could shoot, we'd be asking £15 million for him!
