LoOkOut Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Carlos is ruining players imo. Rhodes Abdi Hooper The list goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Night-Owl Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 It's the negative tactics holding us back and nullifying our attacking players. It's that, that needs changing not letting any of our best players go. Because no matter who we let go or who we bring in, the same issues will occur if we continue to stubbornly persist with negative tactics and a unbalanced set up.

Garry Powell Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 normally go down M1 and then A34 to go to Wolves. He didnt set the transfer fee we offered it. Most prolific scorer in the Championship but getting no service like the rest of our forwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spookone Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 (edited) I am bewildered a little, my mind has been confugeld. I really like CC and think he has done a fantastic job over the last 2 seasons and is an excellent manager but why aren't we attacking teams with the quality we have, we have the quality to score more goals, than most teams, in most matches. 5 top class strikers we would have only dreamed of 3 seasons ago and yesterday we didn't even trouble their keeper, if it was just Rhodes who was struggling but it isn't not one of our strikers is scoring like we would expect them to be, possibly because of none of them getting a solid run or not really knowing where they stand, but when it comes to it we just dont seem to have the attacking mentality our strikers are crying out for. If they were being given the chances to score then we would fly this season. As it is Billy the Blunt may challenge our strikers for a season total - and that just isn't right. Rhodes would, given the chance, be top 3 in the division this season. Edited August 6, 2017 by Spookone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
114mphAndRising Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Face the facts. A striker can't score goals unless he's given chances. Look at how many chances we created yesterday. If we'd had Pele up front we'd have still been goalless. Undo the shackles and let the lads play a bit. You don't assemble this much proven talent and then stifle them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyowl Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Imagine if we sell him and he then goes and gets 25 goals for wolves and sends them up! Owlstalk would break! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asteener1867 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 A player of quality would show despite the tactics...or at least show glimpses.... For one reason or another Jordan Rhodes has not....I'm not saying he hasn't got talent, but 10 Mill....honest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. Completely agree. The baffling thing is, in our first season under Carlos - if we went a goal down or the opposites got a goal back I was confident that we'd get another one. You could feel it. It really was a case of we're gonna score one more than you. And now I can't see where the goals are gonna come from... with arguably the most feared forward players in the Championship. Astonishing.

Eightace Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Proven at this level like Abdi. These sort of players need to be playing. Be like flogging Messi because we need a beast in the middle and he isn't pacey enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggys battle bus Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Rhodes must stay and build a team around him and winnal as the main strike force. Play hoops just behind them and get the that sloppy defence sorted. We are all frustrated with CCs tactics. We can see another boring season ahead. If this happens again it's curtains to promotion and Carlos. And whoever is responsible for selling our surplus squad players wants a rocket up his a**e .

pgmetcalf Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 3 hours ago, Bloxwich Owl said: Report: Sheffield Wednesday's Jordan Rhodes among options for Wolverhampton Wanderers after £8m Sam Gallagher bid rejected Rhodes has struggled since signing for Sheffield Wednesday, but a report suggests Wolverhampton Wanderers have not been put off after failing in an attempt to sign Gallagher from Southampton. Sheffield Wednesday's Jordan Rhodes is among the options being considered by Wolverhampton Wanderers as an alternative to Southampton striker Sam Gallagher, The Sun on Sunday reports (August 6, page 62). Wolves are said to have seen an £8 million offer rejected by Southampton, who recently tied Gallagher to a new contract. Previous reports claimed a loan for the 21-year-old could be on the cards, but according to The Sun on Sunday, Wolves could cast their net elsewhere - and are 'ready to gamble on a goalscorer'. Their former striker Andre Gray emerged as a target in recent weeks, and the Burnley man is again mentioned as a possibility - despite his rumoured £20 million price tag. But Rhodes' name is a fresh one as far as Wolves are concerned, although it remains to be seen whether Sheffield Wednesday would be willing to part with the 27-year-old, who completed a club-record permanent move to Hillsborough at the start of last month. Rhodes has struggled to replicate his previous Championship form since initially joining the Owls on loan in January, scoring just three goals in 21 games for Carlos Carvalhal's team. Yayy! who can we flog off next? How about your granny? Why stop there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swfc1983 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Knowing us we will probably sell Rhodes and replace him with a couple of wingers to provide the service he requires now. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronnie Starling Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Rhodes had the service of Gary Roberts at Huddersfield and the likes of Ben Marshall at Blackburn. What does he have here? A lump upfield from Lee's. Whenever we have had wingers Carlos has refused to play them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
