So do I! I can only imagine what Everton would want for him though. Think of a number, triple it, and add a few zeros.

Rodwell is a midfielder mate not a centre back.

Rodwell is a midfielder mate not a centre back.
Plays both for everton but from what ive seen and read allways thought he was stronger at centre back, here we go just found these quotes
EVERTON starlet Jack Rodwell has the potential to become the new Rio Ferdinand, according to Arsenal hero and Sky Sports pundit Alan Smith.
“He’s comfortable on the ball and I think central midfield is where he’s best but maybe by the time he’s 23 or 24 he may be a top centre-half.
“I don’t know how Rio Ferdinand started his career but I think he started as a central midfield player and eventually moved back. He has a lot of similar qualities.” Mikkel Arteta
would love him at city but not sure on the validity of the source lol

I think the Lescott transfer showed it doesn't matter one fucking bit what Moyes wants.
It's worth us bidding for him just to annoy the twat. May as well chuck a bid in for Fellaini, Arteta, Pienaar while we are at it.

I read an article where he said he was using Rio Ferdinand as his inspiration, starting in midfield when young to help his around game before dropping back into defence later on. Things could always have changed in the past season and a half though.

Theres an article here: http://backpagefootball.com/one2watch/jack-rodwell/ about him - he made his debut as a central defender but seems (according to that article) to be thought of now more as a midfielder. Anyway he certainly has the potential for versatility that Mancini seems to value.

Can't see the point of Moyes marking any of his young players for anything in the future...The board have marked them already "FOR SALE"...
