I think Newcastle will value Rondon higher so it's more a case of what extra we can get. I'd even take a straight swap to be honest. Yes, he's 30, but he's been absolutely brilliant this year. If we don't sign him and assuming we keep J-Rod, then we'd be looking at bringing in 3 strikers in the summer. I can't see us doing that.
I mentioned it in the match thread but his reaction when we scored was brilliant. This is a guy who belongs to Newcastle, didn't need to be there at all last night and wouldn't have played anyway, yet he kicked every ball and the goal meant so much to him.
