Start Rhodes FFS


Recommended Posts

Beggars can’t be choosers.

 

The team is awful. We’ve got 1 match left to try and survive. If we get 1 clear cut opportunity to score in that match, Rhodes is the one man at the club with any sort of proven track record of scoring it.

 

Theres a million reasons for us to doubt Rhodes. Shelve every single one of them for Derby. He has to play all 90.

They’re all crap, slotting Rhodes up too won’t make us better. The deliveries to the strikers need to be better to be able to actually finish. 
 

 


But that’s plainly wrong. Our results improve greatly when he plays up front. It’s undeniable fact.

 

Why would we not maximise our chances for this unbelievably vital game?

 

Rhodes and Windass have to start in a front two, with Paterson in midfield.

Moore clearly thinks we are a better side without Rhodes. He is wrong.

 

The 3 games we have won in the 13 under Moore, Rhodes started in each one and scored 3 goals. If Moore thinks that he's mad.

 

We are also better when Rhodes and Windass play together, rather than just one of them as a lone striker.

 

Rhodes and Windass starting together this season, W4 D2 L4.

 

Without them

W8 D8 L19

Question - when did we last win a game without Rhodes in the starting line-up?

 

 

Answer - 2nd February, 20 games ago, Bournemouth away.


He then came on and scored a late goal if I remember correctly.

I know it’s totally bizarre.

 

Unfathomable.

Whats your view on the easy chances he has fluffed recently.

 

How does it affect your beloved stats you dont post anymore

 

And anyone who twists facts to believe one player is the reason for a result in a game with so many variables, doesnt understand the game

Really disappointing misses. But it’s so noticeable how many chances we get when he’s playing. Surely you see that? Saturday was a prime example. Sod all first half - bags of (missed) chances second half.

Im disapointed that he misses chances. Cause apparently all he needs is service.

 

Have his misses cost us games or would that only be true it it was Paterson?

This is spot on . He's been a disastrous signing but forget that, he's still the man most likely to score.
