On the We Call It Soccer podcast a few weeks back, I suggested giving Angelo Rodriguez until the end of the season before making a true assessment of his skills. In large part, this was because there was little data to go off of. When he signed, it was frankly hard to figure out how many appearances he had made recently, whose number to use to count how many goals he had scored in which competition, and just how much stock to put in the team’s highlight reel that included him scoring penalty kicks.
As a result, some fans slotted him in, sight unseen, as the best striking option on the team.
