Lythamowl Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 For the love of god dont sell jordan He has the potential to be the most potent striker since Hirsty and he will come good. This aint some 19 year old who's scored 167 goals in a season for kilmarnock, this is a proven striker at this level. Hold your nerve carlos, give him the servive he needs and you will sipping wine with jose at old trafford before you know it pal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swfc-dan Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Lost his pace and hasn't been the old JR for well over a year now. Showed that last season. Bad mistake signing. If its a good offer then cash in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've heard BS about it being an inflated market etc. Jota for 6m is a steal. So it Deen for 2m. Theres been a few more as well, we don't need Rhodes. We don't play to his strengths, hes a waste of money with the set up we currently have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But has pace ever been a part of his game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LittleG Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Would be pure madness to sell him. We're not exactly prolific in front of goal with our supposedly best pairing. What happens if Hooper and Fletcher get injured, we could end up with a front two of Nuihu and Winnall!!! Keep him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly.....I've a mate who is a Blackburn fan who could argue he had Rhodes at his 'best' and he always says pace is not part of his game. He also said he worked best when alongside a big target man. Clearly all of us and the rest of the championship can see this.......sadly just our resident portugese manager who can't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sMacLean Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Rhodes is a box player and definitely needs a target man next to him rather than passing through midfield to him. He was lethal next to Gestede and Novak.Fletcher the only player we have in that mould and he plays better next to Hooper. If we were going to build the side around Rhodes i'd say get Gestede from Boro and partner them up again.20 goals each at this level in 14/15.However as we don't use a settled striker line up and never put any crosses in i don't suppose it's likely.

victorturner Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 On Rhodes appearances so far,there is absolutely no reason to keep him just as there was no reason to acquire him. Difficult his father being at the club and maybe it should never have been contemplated. How does father react if coach tells son that he is not up to standard?

poite Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 If we sell Rhodes that's it for me. I'm done with Carlos. Despite some things that I've said which could imply I want Carlos out I've always been on fence as I have huge respect for what he has achieved. But selling Jordan Rhodes because he doesn't fit into the most boring, negative, bullshit system I've seen is just a stamp on the bolicks too far for me.
