I doubt we'll sign Rhodes.

Recommended Posts

The fact Klose is 36 and the only poacher Germany have is pretty strong evidence that it is a dying style.

Muller is a perfect example of the new breed of striker, can play out wide, links play but also deadly in the box.

I really don''t believe we need Rhodes, whether Hooper stays or not. We''ve got a couple of really promising young strikers in Morris and Loza, Lafferty looks a bit Holt like. I think we need a strong defender, new RB, and a CM who can spray it about.

Strikers and Wingers we are ok. It''s elsewhere we need strength.

It''s going to be good fun this year. We are everyone''s target scalp, we are really going to have to play very well to bounce straight back. Dish out a couple of early hidings I reckon, get the fear factor in.

Shouldn''t this whole thread be "I doubt we''ll ever see Wiz at Carrow Road for a 1st team game?" Why such an opinion if you can''t SUPPORT your team alleged team??? Answer this please....

[quote user="Phillip J Fry"]Rhodes is a pure penalty-box striker. If he isn''t scoring, he isn''t contributing. He has to rely on clever movement as he is also not particularly athletic and is not fast enough to outrun a defender nor strong enough to hold one off.  He can''t drop deep and link up the play, nor is he a particularly accurate passer. When you factor in that Blackburn will want more than 8 million for him (and that he is supposedly on Premier league wages) is he really worth it? So far, Adams has signed (and been heavily linked to) strikers that posses extraordinary physical attributes (Grabban and Wilson are both very fast, Lafferty is very tall and broad), is there really any indication that he even likes pure poachers like Rhodes? 
Anyway, poachers are a dying breed at the top level of football. How many pure poachers are left in the Premier League now? Almost all strikers are either athletically or technically talented as well as goal-scorers. More disciplined and better coached defenders means that you don''t get the mistakes that poachers thrive on anymore.

Agree completely. Besides, we already got 2 poachers, in Hooper and RvW.

If used in the right way, I think Lafferty actually will be a more effective player than Rhodes. Reason being that we lack creativity in the middle of the park, as long as Hoolahan is not playing.

Rhodes would be as much of a passenger as Hopper and RvW was last season if we can not provide the strikers with more opportunities to score.

In my eyes, Rhodes is a 4-5 mill striker, providing you got midfielders to supply him, as he will create nada himself.

Was that MTV of the morph-suit debacle? Ha ha! That was seriously funny. I know sometimes Morty likes to invite people for a drink. But I think this dude wanted to take us all on simultaneously!
