Becks, Donovan, Rojas? Offseason Loans Hit RBNY
By: Dave Martinez | January 7th, 2009
El Universal reports Venezuelan club team Mineros de Guayana are looking to finalize a deal with the Red Bulls to bring Jorge Rojas on board through March. This would allow Red Bull to have Rojas back just in time for the new campaign. And according to the article, all details are hammered out, and they are only waiting to fulfill some basic requirements for the Red Bulls as an insurance policy. Rojas has been training there since December.
There are positives and concerns in all of this. For starters, he spent a chunk of last year injured. Will training like this all off season help or hurt him physically? Then again, the argument has been made that Rojas only suffered such a slow start because of his lack of conditioning and mid season transfer movement. In the end, I tend to believe Rojas has everything to gain if this move comes to fruition.
On a side note; I love reading Venezuelan press. They never have one bad thing to say about their players. They hailed Cichero’s reign in New York, and, in this specific article, they praise Rojas 1st MLS season as a raving success, which it really wasn’t. Not that he was bad, but a superstar? Not really.
But anyhow: share your thoughts with us! Is any extra revenue a good thing? Will this experiment end up badly? Or will it not happen at all?

Training and playing is a good thing, but not training with RBNY is going to be a bad thing. Especially for a player like him playing in the midfield.

Lets hope Mr Rojas can step us his game this season. I was unimpressed and disappointed last year. I had expected more.
I think his practice can only help him. Its hard to say but I thought conditioning was an issue for him last year
