    Get him minutes in the first team. He's clearly performing at the B level. Give him the chance to step up. We've nothing to lose at this point.

    Not sure if this is geo-locked, great movement and finish.

    Can't see the video there, but give this guy a chance.

    He's scoring far to many to not be given one, put him on the bench and if we're doing well put him on its the simplest way to bring an attacker into our team

    He should be getting minutes for us. Consistently doing it at club and international level in the youths. The next evolutionary step is the first team.

    Decide whether he's a RW or ST and start phasing him in. We have plenty of matches where he could get some game time. We moan about young players with potential moving elsewhere but seldom give them a chance.

    He'll end up a striker i think..

    Has that deadly knack and the way he strikes the ball. He just looks a natural 9..

    He looked lightweight in his sub appearances for us but he does seem to have that natural goalscoring ability.

    Get him on a proper program and in the gym. Give him minutes against the pish in the league and in cup games against lesser opposition. Have him training with the first team more often and bleed him in.

    Shopping abroad for a third choice ST seems crazy to me when we have a guy here who clearly has potential.

    Really hope he signs a new deal.

    I can't really blame him for wanting to look elsewhere after we've signed Palma, Yang and Tilio, but with Abada and Tilio out injured I don't think there's any reason not to give him a game or two when we're comfortable.

    If we want him to sign a new contract, we'll need to start playing him.

    He has to be getting minutes up to the winter window, ideally up front.

    He is a natural goal scorer who we can’t let slip through the net.

    He won’t get anything if he doesn’t want to be here, and it looks like he doesn’t. Think he’d have had opportunities already this season if he was committed I think.

    Exactly part of the problem as to why I will never offer the ROI my "support". All Ireland or No Ireland.

    But back to Rocco... we need to start giving this kid his * place in the squad asap.

    We're gonna lose him.
