SeattleCanary 0 Posted January 5, 2017 Now they''ve signed Gestede and they have Rhodes, that''s the duo from 2 seasons back for Blackburn. With Boro having Negredo, Ramirez, and even Nugent (who is pants) could we pinch Rhodes in some capacity I wonder?Just goes to show that with those two, and Josh King all in the Prem now, Blackburn had the forwards of a Prem team but the rest of the setup wasn''t up to scratch to get them back up. We have to make sure we get the balance right in our team these next two windows! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rogue Baboon 0 Posted January 5, 2017 To be fair, at one point we had Snodgrass, Howson & Johnson - we were only a Max Gradel away from having Leeds'' League One midfield in the Premier League...As for Rhodes, i''m not sure if has the attributes I think we need, especially given how we set up with 1 up top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SeattleCanary 0 Posted January 5, 2017 Agree to an extent about how we set up, but it only takes an injury to Cam and he''d be right in the thick of it with Olive. He''s had what, three clubs since then? Surely the whiff of bin has come out in the wash by now. Although I feel more strongly about Wickham in that sense (not having him here) than I do Rhodes, not sure why tbh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeiranShikari_2 0 Posted January 5, 2017 The Ipswich link is the thing that makes me want him. They released him as a kid, every goal he scored for us would hurt them.That being said, no chance. Way out of our budget now and not in the position we''re in desperate need of strengthening, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ec-p 60 Posted January 5, 2017 We also had Becchio from the Leeds faction, not that he got the chance to play with his compatriots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
