Hooper - brilliant finisher. Forestieri - brilliant finisher. As a pair - barren. Fletcher - average finisher Rhodes - hopeless with others As a pair - wow!

He found a way to nullify our two biggest goal threats. How many did we win of them 17 games. As when we reminisce about the Carlos days. Those two were upfront with Bannan on the left in the best team people post of his. So must have worked to a certain degree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team simply stopped scoring when CC shaft his pants and put these two together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps people are just shoehorning in the best Carlos era players into any formation just like the master himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It it took many sessions of electro therapy and beta blockers to stop me thinking about just how dire we were with Bannan left and an FF-Hooper front two. And yet to some “those were the days”. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here’s the Fletcher-Rhodes pairing this season:- Millwall Away - 25 minutes - no team goals Swansea Home - 7 minutes - 1 team goal Brentford Home - 45 minutes - 2 team goals - Fletcher 2 Derby Away - 72 minutes - 1 team goal - Fletcher Forest Away - 87 minutes - 4 team goals - Fletcher Rhodes 3 Hull Home - 30 minutes - no team goals 266 minutes in tandem 8 team goals Team goal every 33 minutes (compared to every 82 minutes otherwise) Fletcher 4 goals Rhodes 3 goals As soon as Fletcher is back I hope this is given a few games to see if this really promising early courtship could blossom into a fabulous long-lasting marriage. In what effing parallel universe has Rhodes ever been impressive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without that they would underline nothing. Since that 45 minutes the Rhodes has turned up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be a freak 612 minutes. But shouldn’t we find out? Fek all else works. Edited February 25, 2020 by Holmowl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still haven't. I responded to your OP. Here you are. 16/17 - 245 minutes - 7 team goals - goal every 35 minutes 17/18 - 101 minutes - 3 team goals - goal every 34 minutes 19/20 - 266 minutes - 8 team goals - goal every 33 minutes That’s not selective. It’s every minute we’ve played with a Rhodes-Fletcher front two. During the same period we’ve scored a goal every 75 minutes without the partnership.
