@owlstalk Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Jordan Rhodes' market value has plummeted to less than £2million, according to transfer market analysts. The figures from respected website Transfermarkt now rate the 30-year-old at just £1.8m - a huge drop from the £8million Sheffield Wednesday forked out for the striker back in 2017 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StudentOwl Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 To be fair, tell teams he can be used to wipe bottoms and we'll get our money back 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he's already had us for going on £20 million. 61 appearances and 11 goals later and we still haven't got rid. And I was one of those doing handstands when we signed him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think it is a sad statement that he doesn’t appear to have sought out an alternative employer in the hope of resurrecting his career. If he took a 50% pay cut he’d still probably gross £700 a year. And people say he’s a lovely fella. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TodwickOwl Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 To be fair - a lot of us backed him to go on and push us to the promise land when he got here Many thought he was given a rough ride at Boro, all his stats suggested he would kick on We never utilised him correctly though with our style of play - hes a box merchant, nothing else, perhaps if we provided more clinical chances for him in the box it could've been different. We all know our style of play in CC second season was ultra defensive, if he was with us in out first season under Chansiri I'm sure he'd have scored more in that style of play. Since then - we've been crap anyway, with or without Jordan Rhodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chansiri is definitely at fault. but I cannot understand why the player cannot or will not initiate a breakaway. Unless he is not interested in resurrecting his career. We constantly hear about player power, agent power. Yet our Jordan seems to a special case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My gut feeling (no inside knowledge) is that Rhodes has wanted away for some time, but the chairman keeps stopping it through the demands asked of the buying/loaning club?

Who in there right mind would take a 50% pay cut .... now if the club gave him a free with a 50% pay off that's a way out for both parties but cant see them doing that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmowl Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 We are sat on a £9m loss as it stands. The team win and score prolifically when Rhodes partners Fletcher:- 612 mins 18 team goals Fletcher 8 goals Rhodes 7 goals We can give him away, or we can play them together for 6/8 games at the start of next season, and watch us score, win, and the value of a costly asset rise. And, to anticipate replies, if it doesn’t work, we’ve lost nothing. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Rat Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 His deterioration from best in class at this level to totally ineffective just baffles me. He’s still only 30, should be absolutely in his prime. Both crazy and sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With 1 year left on his contract unless he is prepared to take a massive wage cut he is unlikely to go. Have to come to some sort of arrangement like pay him 6 months of his contract as a golden handshake to move him on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
