Louis Posted October 2, 2006 Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 Date of Birth: 11th March 1991 Place of Birth: Southport Position: Centre Back He is 15yr old centre back from Southport and has been called up at England u-16 level. He has played for the Everton u-18 since he was 14. Also he is very strong and tall 6ft 2in (catching up to Peter Crouch!) Everton u-18 manager Neil Dewsnip said: "Jack Rodwel acquitted himself very well. That bodes well for the future. It is great experience and showed he wasn't fazed by the step up and he can handle it. His uncle is Southport's Tony Rodwell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted October 2, 2006 Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 Its looking a very bright future at Everton if all these youngsters make the step up. It will save us alot of money aswell, and hopefully we will be doing well enough not to let the 'bigger' clubs steal them from us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 It's always good to have Everton players who are Evertonians but so was Rooney. I just hope he commits to us because he looks like he will be a quality defender. He cant be bad if he's Brazilian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebluenose Posted December 30, 2006 Report Share Posted December 30, 2006 excellent. once again our academy has turned up trumps. why dont we get young brazillian players from brazil when theyre like 5 years old and give the families incentives to let thier children train over here.

irishtoffee Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 Guys from what im hearing about Rodwell is very very good. I have been told by people that he is going to be world class, must admit dont know that much about him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevO Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 i know hes been england captain for his age group for a while. that says enough for me. oh, and playing for the reserves at 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J*A*C*K*E*L*Z Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 indeed he sounds like the next mark hughes to me. Thats not meant in a bad way wither i though Hughes was going to be great, its a shame it never worked out for him so if rodwell can do better then that ..... great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraccerC Posted August 8, 2007 Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 i think 'the rock' has received much more praise than mark hughes ever did. he has also to my knowledge achieved a lot more in his years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue4Ever Posted August 8, 2007 Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 didnt think Mark ever was meant to be anything class, just a good player coming through the reserves... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Bernard Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 Jack Rodwell is a brilliant prospect. Any player that has played for a youth England team is a good prospect for the future. Iam sure we will keep hold of him. Plus he turns out to be a cracking player on FM and CM. And thats good news right......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Berno Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 Yes this player looks like he could be the future of Everton's and England's defence. Everton havent had a good defender from the youth for quite a while (and yes he is good on cm & fm) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james_roberts Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 Is it true this guy is only 15? I, being the retard that I am, have only been him on FIFA, so I am not going to create an opinion based on a game where Johnson ampard are equal...

Louis Posted November 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 He's only young 15 or 16 now.. name seems to be getting around he's in football manager and FIFA at the age of 16 (at the most). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Posted January 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 Jack Rodwell plays as a centre-half and has attracted the attention of most clubs now. Apparently, Barcelona have even been in touch with him to invite him over. Chelsea have offered to relocate him and his family to London — all expenses picked up by Abramovich — including a 4 bedroom house of their choice. Liverpool and Man Utd have offered them / him all kinds of temptations, but he's standing firm (in spite of the fact that Everton have the weakest offer on the table — is it ever going to improve?) because he's a Blue. Beckham has taken him down to London and picked him to be on his team, John Terry thinks he's amazing and he rang him the other week and advised him about sponsorship (sadly he didn't get there in time to advise him NOT to sign up to Stretford, so I expect he'll be gone soon enough to better club for a hefty fee and an even heftier commission to his agent) Adidas and Nike are both vying for his signature and have told him he'll have made his first million before he's 17 in sponsorship alone.

jacko 1990 Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 speaking of southport Louis, they are selling their naming rights to their stadium. their Crushing teams for fun but no scoring and letting goals in at some ridiculous time near the end. He would get change from his 1 million if he was to buy Southport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
