I was never too upset with this guy. I think people don't like him because he came here with a big reputation and he proved to be not that player, and that's understandable.
I think next season, RR will be a good compliment to what conti brings on the opposite side(or an in form Calabria). They are the more "traditional" attacking fullbacks, the guys running around their wingers and bombing forward at will. Conti takes that a step further and actually likes to move into the box and have a go at goal, something I really hope he can do again after his injury.
RR doesn't have that type of athleticism to do that. He's much more ball oriented, he's pretty good at getting the ball out of pressure. Often times Calabria plays the ball to Kessie or Suso in pressure or just goes long, which is actually fine for a fullback. But RR tends to link up a bit better with the center backs and midfield. The one thing i really don't like is when he overdoes that and loses the ball, but even bonucci does that at times. I do agree he should show off that left foot more, he's shown just enough flashes for me to know he does have that ability. But it's his first season in serie a playing for a team that had an up down season under two managers. His confidence should be higher next season. If anything I don't think RR is a problem on this team, there are other areas we should improve before him
