Hack-Abusi Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Rhodes will get you goals given we set up in his favour .. We are still lacking a pacey striker - given our situation its gonna be tough looking at someone like Nakhi Wells who'd give us that injection of pace we need. Or someone similar All our strikers are very similar with only the odd difference like Joao bit skill ful, Fletcher good in the air etc .. we just lack pace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avon barksdale Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 The last time Jordan played and scored regularly was 2016. He has never played and scored regularly for a promotion chasing championship team. l fear we’re waiting for something that frankly isn’t there.We have 6 average strikers, let’s get a manager in soon to sort out our imbalanced squad. Deadline day is 16 days away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bladeshater Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 The plan is Harris and reach put quality balls in the box then Rhodes will score goals 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulldog Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 He HAD a good goal scoring record. 2015 the last time he broke 20 - and won't achieve it again with us or anyone else. So if he stays or goes....meh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fred mciver Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Rhodes looks on fire pre -season, maybe up for a move. But a good supply to him and Fletch looks like a top 2 attack to me. But we need to strengthen defence and more steel in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quinnssweetshop Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 The plan ? We are going to ask him to take a penalty kick against say...someone he likes....be it Blackburn, Boro, Hudds or Norwich.. Then decide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 I still think he'll end up at Norwich before deadline day but at the moment we have a player who's just played his part in a title winning side at this level so it's no wonder that he seems to be in a good place?

bigash_swfc Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 He needs to go. Bannan is more important. What I mean by that, is for years we've known we are a 5 man midfield team. With the lack of height and athletic ability in there we'll get completely over run. Pelupessy, Bannan, Harris etc....too small for a 4 man midfield. Lets realise it now, because this is a known fact. We are currently wasting time, playing 4-4-2 in friendlies and not addressing issues we are already aware of.

swfc-dan Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 We desperately need to raise some funds. We have plenty of options up top so for christ sake just sell him DC. Must be able to get 4mil from Norwich. Just how much is he expecting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the wide players might have pace, but how many goals does Harris score? About the same as Palmer I reckon you expect wide players to chip in with a few goals but more to create chances for the main strikers i dont think harris was brought in for his goal scoring record Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
