He would be a good squad player to have. But if we have Fessi, Hooper, Fletcher, Winnall, Joao, Rhodes all fit can you see him even making the bench. If we are getting rid of Fletcher and a n other then I would keep him as another option but if not then thank you but no thank you. We cannot afford next season to be carrying 7 strikers when anymore than 4 is too many. If we hadn’t got 7 strikers we would be well and truly goosed this season . Strikers win matches , and unfortunately for us this season all ours have either been injured or out of form . So , yes in my opinion we need all 7 , if they were fit most of them would start for any team in this league. ( and we wouldn’t be in the dire league position we’ve found ourselves in ) Edited March 21, 2018 by Vernster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blatter Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 1 hour ago, Lincs Owl said: The stats are flawed. Does coming on for the last ten minutes when we're 3-0 down still count as an appearance? Minutes played should be the only yardstick. Anyway, I think Atdhe is a better player than most folk give him credit for. I'd have him in the squad even when Hooper Fletcher and FF are back. He'll never score many goals, but he'll make it easier for others to score. Interesting isn't it that we spend so much time discussing how to get the best out of Jordan Rhodes but just not finding it Perhaps we should have been discussing how to get the best out of Atdhe..ie more goals. Jos seems to be doing just that. He was close to getting a hat trick at Leeds with a dipping shot from distance. Its been very unusual to see him attempting things like that in the past. More please big lad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamAP22D Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I'd like to see him keep the form up in till the end of the season. What's left 9 games? If he could bag another 4 or 5 before the end of the season I'd be mildly impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wednesday_Jack Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 The only stat that counts is that over the course of his time here he hasn’t been good enough and hasn’t scored enough goals. A run of 12 half decent games doesn’t warrant a £10k a week contract for another 12 months. Hes been a good servant and yes he’s stepped up in recent months but over the last 3/4 years he’s been poor and struggled to hold down a regular place...there is a reason that 3 previous managers haven’t played him and when Jos has a fully fit squad he will find himself in a similar position.

I doubt Winnall will play for us again. I think Fletcher would be off if we could find a club to take on his wages, and I think FFP will force our hand on actively shopping Rhodes around. I'd also figure Atdhe would be comfortably the lowest wage earner of that lot, while also being arguably our closest thing to a genuinely different option. I actually don't see the sense in letting him go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theowlsman Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Been a very effective player for us since day 1. Particularly plays well alongside Hooper when fit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is keeping Jordan Rhodes, our all time record signing , out of the team. If you would have said that 14 months ago you would have been laughed at all the way to the Leeds, as the advert went. bloody hell Leon Clarke would keep em both out,we need a lot better if we are going to push for the play offs next year,christ !!!

Depends how you define not good enough if on goal scoring then yeah fair enough but he’s a kevin Davies type player who provides and does the hard work guess it depends whether you value that type of player or would rather 2 goal scorers up top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leon Clarke has reverted to type I’ve heard. In their last match a cross came to him with an open goal just 4 yards out. He managed to put it back to where it came from. I reckon he’s been mskicking and getting lucky up until now, else his pie bonus has been stopped Edited March 21, 2018 by theowlsman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
