owls maniac Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Norwich are doing it the right way and building the football club up from the bottom. Got a very good technical director there who is establishing a philosophy from the academy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitechapel Owl Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 I'm not sure why they'd have any interest in buying him when he can't get into their starting lineup. Not exactly a cheap option for the bench is he. Whether they go up or not is irrelevant. Hope we do have the promotion clause in his loan deal though.

BRADDO Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 I doubt Rhodes will be back with us next season as his wages are too prohibitive in view of FFP. I wonder if Huddersfield would take him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt that very much, they embraced modern football before we did We are stuck with him, we will just have to use him as Norwich do, as an option from the bench Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Down South Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 2 hours ago, northeastowl said: Wouldn’t exactly say they are Jammy. They have got a good structure to work from with a loyal and wealthyish fan base. They’ve obviously got one hell of a scouting system/network to find some of the players they signed in the summer. They don’t waste money on past it crocks like we do which gives them more money to spend/risk on younger players. They are run a million times better than we are that’s for sure. Agree with all of this - made millions recently on sales of Pritchard, Maddison and Murphy twins, but have invested wisely - probably still well in pocket overall, which to me suggests a well run club.

OhForAnotherShez Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Really impressed with Norwich last night, how comfortable and confident on the ball in tight areas. They looked like they could play 11v11 in 20v20yds and never lose possession. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0114 Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 If we can’t sign anyone. I 100% expect Bruce to stick with Rhodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzOwl Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Looks to me like he’s been reduced to being subbed to wind down the time, (sad) he has had no real game time for nearly three seasons now, probably won’t get any more chances until his value reduces and starts playing For a no mark team where he can reignite his goal scoring form.

Fair play to them, stuck with the manager when he was getting a lot of stick. Some shrewd signings in the summer. Theyre the type of jammy club who always find a way to get back to the Premier League. Surely nobody did? They were an absolute garbage fire last couple of seasons. Didn't we put five past them twice? This league is so strange. Love it. Mostly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that’s wheeling and dealing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched them last night, and that is the best side in this league. Made Leeds look like cart horses.
