HOOTIE AND THE SHIT TU Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Just now, gizowl said: Them figures also show he was in decline season after season to where he is now. What if he could give you 25 goals next season, and those goals get you promoted Wouldn't you want to have a look at him He's a goalscorer, goal scorers don't lose that instinct Correct me if I'm wrong, but we haven't had a 20 goal a season striker since Steve MaClean We've got one on our books but we want to get rid without having a good look at him I think Steve Bruce is far too intelligent to do that 1 Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife.

The best player I've ever seen in a Wednesday shirt was Chris Waddle He was 31 when we signed him You could say he was in decline But he gave us 4 glorious years But going on your logic, we wouldn't have signed him Jordan Rhodes is already at the club, let's have a look at him before he gets binned off 1 Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife.

I’m convinced that with service and confidence he will score goals. I’d love to see us with Fletch and Rhodes up top with two quality wide players pinging crosses in.

gurujuan Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 I can safely say I’ve seen enough of Jordan Rhodes to know that we should absolutely bin him off, I don’t care what he did 4 years ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure about Fletcher, I think Bruce will entertain bids, it makes sense, his star is fading, he's just had a decent season, if someone takes him and his massive wages off us, and we can then bring someone younger in with a bit of pace and power, then I'd do it.

He’s not essential in the same way Bannan is. For the right price I would defo sell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurujuan Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 I’ve seen suggestions on here that we should get rid of all six remaining strikers We could, but with two already having left, I think it highly unlikely. Think we will see a further two offloaded, with 1, or maybe 2 coming in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigash_swfc Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Westwood Palmer-Iorfa-Lees-Thorniley Forestieri-Hutchinson-Bannan-Reach Rhodes-Fletcher Subs Lee, Joao, Dawson, Fox, Pelupessy, Nuhui, Baker At the very worst. We start the season with a top 10 squad? (Obviously, if we retain afew) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we should sell the ones highlighted if possible. However, with Bruce stating that he wants 5-6 players in I think we'll probably only offload the 2-3 of those which would potentially generate the most money. E.g Joao, Winnall, Forestieri. We are going to need to bring in players that are ready to roll straight away and have the pace and physicality to compete week in week out at this level. We really need to strengthen the centre back, wing back, wingers and centre midfield positions and I'd love to have a pacy striker in that offers something different. Agreed with everything except for keeping Rhodes instead of Joao. Absolutely crackers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhodes is past it! 2 completely different players, what I do think is that Joao is the more saleable asset and we need some room for manoeuvre Rhodes I’m meh about, I don’t particularly buy into the ‘he would score 30+ with two rapid wingers’ club, I think it’s all about confidence with him but he’s not been here under Steve Bruce and I think the gaffer will fancy his chances of getting him firing. Quick one on Rhodes at Norwich for people to think about .. his stats this season in a championship winning side where he’s hardly had a sniff are 30 App 9 goals ! 1 less than Joao who’s had 7 more starts than him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why will Bruce fare any better than the other managers since then? The game has moved on but he hasn’t. One of the first out if we get an offer.

k_guite Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 (edited) Westwood Iorfa Lees Hector LB CM CDM Bannan Reach Fletch Fernando Dawson Palmer CB Thorniley Fox Lee Hutchinson Pelupessy Joao Rhodes LW Swap Rhodes for Winnall if you dont like him but im with the Rhodes will score camp. Nuhiu as impact sub. Dont think we will see any sales. Our asking price for anyone someone might actually buy will be silly (other than winnall). Players like Baker Winnall and Van bobbins can go on loan. Edited May 7, 2019 by k_guite . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hack-Abusi Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Every player has a price even the likes of Bannan, Fletch and Reach etc I trust Bruce to wheel and deal and be able to move players on and replace with similar if not better or players with definate potential .. Even the likes of Tom Lees, if you could get, for arguments sake, £5m, that allows you to bring in potentially 1-2, if not 3 players that will strengthen the team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
