Rodrigo stunned by ‘Impossible’ incident as he returns to full Leeds training
Leeds United attacker Rodrigo has returned to full training after his shoulder injury ahead of the Premier League showdown with Aston Villa.
The Whites return to action on Sunday (02 October) after a full month without a game due to two postponements and the international break in September.
Rodrigo shared an image from Thorp Arch and was left stunned by Joel Robles, admitting it is “impossible” to score past his international compatriot in training.
Writing on his personal Instagram account via his stories, Rodrigo could not believe his eyes at what he had seen at Thorp Arch as he got back into the swing of things.
“It is impossible to score a goal,” he said. “You are a beast.
“Tomorrow is the day.”
Impossible.
Well, either Robles has been sensational in training or Rodrigo is slightly rusty after his time off.
One thing that this one-month break has given us is the chance to regroup and get our squad back together with injured players all returning to action.
Even Stuart Dallas is back on the grass now, but of course, it will be a couple of months until he is back at 100%, but that appears to be our only issue now.
It feels strange to have a full squad outside of that available, with our bench looking as though it could be as strong as we have seen in years this weekend, with Rodrigo likely on it.
On the other hand, Aston Villa have been decimated by injuries with the likes of Matty Cash, Lucas Digne, Diego Carlos and Boubacar Kamara all having issues.
Thorp Arch has held back a desperate squad for a month now, it is time to unleash them on Sunday.
