It's why he's used to crunching in so many big tackles (I've typed it, I regret it, but damn it, I'm posting it) Casual xenophobia is now allowed under Johnsons law.

If we're going to play two wingers, one either side of a central striker which looks likely now, there's no place for Rhodes, he needs an oldschool 4-4-2 with someone to play off up top. Rhodes can't play as a center forward on his own, so hell be surplus to requirements still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Night-Owl Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 1 minute ago, HIGHERSTATE said: Yeah me too.... Who is he? Wanted us to sign him a couple of years ago. He's what we've been lacking in midfield ever since Wembley. Good player at this level, Australian international, former Asian player of the year. Was wanted by Warnock the year they went up. We're lucky to get him, with his value decreasing because of his contract, otherwise we'd have been priced out. Should be a cracking signing. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think we'd prefer him sold though, like you say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be happy if we let one of Rhodes/Winnall/Nuhiu go and didn't bring anyone in or let 2 go with one coming in. Definitely need a winger or 2 though if this is the way we are going to play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's just hope if Luongo goes on to become some kind of cult figure, nobody in the ground ever turns up wearing a Cork Hat - otherwise they'll be carnage. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OxonOwl Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 I am loving this deadline day. Most others in recent times everyone knows we haven't got much in and we're desperate for something and we don't have any money to spend. How could we negotiate? This one, we already have a few good signings, we have sorted the immediate FFP/P&S issue, we have compo for the Steves, we have money from Joao. We are in a strong position we can turn the screw on other clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
