I told that he was good for Sporting as center back not as LB. I warned plenty of times that he wasn't good enough for us as LB and that Leonardo Jardim played him exclusively as center back. If you re read my posts about him, i warned about his inconsistencies, being prone to errors and that he needed a strong, disciplinarian manager to get him on the line. He was good enough for us but obviously Manchester United isn't Sporting and Portuguese league isn't the english league. You can't just have Ronaldo's and Nani's (in lesser degree obviously). Take it on the shin mate. You got Ronaldo from us pretty cheap
There was a moment where Martial received the ball on the left and waited for Rojo to support him, but the useless fecker just stood still and forced Martial to pass it back.
Why did people even think he was good?
I watched him for 7 games in the World Cup and comfortably came to the conclusion he was no good. You could have swapped him for a cone in that Argentina squad and you'd not notice the difference.
I remember when we were getting linked with him I was annoyed because he managed to be shit at attacking and shit at defending which is generally bad for a full back.
I think people thought he was good because he looked like a good footballer. Snappy hair cut, tattoos, wristbands. Maybe that fooled people into thinking he was good .

Gone backwards this season, time is up. Won't do his job on set-pieces so what's the point in him even starting, Van Gaal deserves criticism for that.
He's not good enough for us not even as back up.
Genuinely worst player I've seen as a United regular. I think Blackett is better much better.
He is bad , but def not as bad as djemba djemba, obertan or taibi
I wonder if he's a better central defender? I don't think he has the game to play fullback and CBJ showed more in 12 games then Rojo ever has. We've missed Camerons first time crosses. Why remove that from the team LVG? Absurd that we've ended up with Rojo and Valencia (though he's actually improved somewhat) - Our width just isn't good with Rojo. Putting in a cross people get on the end of is a knack that he don't really have.
I still find it quite annoying that he plays LB while Blind plays CB. That said I don't fave that much faith he'd be significantly better in the centre!
I'm not having that lol taibi perhaps but Djemba x2 and Obertan were far better. Rojo stinks and he cost us today with his shit marking. He's an accident waiting to happen, the sooner he goes the better.
especially given how Borthwick-Jackson and Fosu-Mensah have looked in the games they've played - the odd mistake from those two which is expected for players breaking through.....Rojo is a mistake waiting to happen
Agree but then again I think Fred the Red would be a better player than Rojo
No way. Rojo had an excellent game against City in the first half of the season. Blackett never had a good game, not a single one.
But he still not as bad as Rojo who ends most of our moves and costs us goals
Blackett is worthless but alas so is Rojo. Both nowhere near good enough.
Can we be absolutely certain this isn't some kind of Ali Dia-style joke from Mendes? He's so bad. So very bad.
Don't understand how Rojo can be an utter shambles every game he plays and LVG can drop other players indefinately for being nowhere near as bad
How LVG's handled them is a prime example of why he shouldn't get too much credit for his youth policy. He's gone to the young players only when absolutely necessary and generally hasn't hesitated to drop them as soon as a senior player returns.
Yep. There are obvious double standards. Players like Rojo can play as shit as they like and their starting place is safe, yet once a youngster makes a mistake/has a poor game, he's immediately sent back to the reserves. Varela is still being punished for his poor first half display against Liverpol at Old Trafford. Where are the consequences for that useless shithouse Rojo? Why is CBJ stuck in the reserves while Rojo starts every fecking game? Why was Darmian dropped for Rojo despite assisting the first and scoring the second goal against Crystal Palace? I just don't fecking get it.
Just not good enough
fecking LVG logic.
We payed £15 million, plus Nani and paid Nani's wages for this fraud......
Let that sink in....
Let that sink in....
I've not liked him from the start and now I despise him. He's shite, and something about him just winds me up. Hope he's sold in the summer.

He's absolute trash. Every time he got the ball in a crossing position last night I had no faith it would be anything decent, and defensively he's about as solid as a yoghurt.
He's so shit.
It's like, you want to be so creative in describing how bad he is but, even William Butler Yates and Seamus Heaney couldn't have put it better than this.
He is just so horrible. Save us Luke, you're our only hope!
*Luke Shaw. Not Skywalker
Keep him around as a squad player for CB/LB. Some of the rubbish written on here about some of our players is a joke. He's too much of a headless chicken to start regularly but he is generally quick, strong, knows how to tackle and is eager to get forward. Other than Shaw, who else does that? Yesterday he was always trying to overlap to help Martial out and he put in plenty of decent crosses.
Smalling gets more blame than Rojo for Morgan's goal for breaking the offside line. If he had stayed Morgan was miles offside when the ball was struck.

Considering the above - I'd say he's our worse ever signing.
One of the worst signings we've made in recent times, seemed like it might be the case at the time when we bent over backwards to sign him.
Is this guy seriously an Argentinian international? Unbelievable.
Norwich 0:1 Man Utd
Get him sold.
He's absolutely hopeless
Got skinned by Cameron fecking Jerome.
I love Rojo but he has the attention span of a gold fish. Still reckon he's a good squad player to have.
I really dont know what his attributes are. He cant really mark at set pieces. His position is horrible. His passing is not great either.Think we've all seen what we've needed to see. Accepted he's a shit left back but can't do anything in center back either.
Fraud.
Fraud.
