Didn't he score one like that v Forest earlier this season so he does have it in his locker.

I was more amazed by him running the channels, holding it up and laying it off accurately to the midfielder for their first goal....he certainly didn't do any of that for us!

I have always liked and rated Rudy.  Put it this way, we got rid of three strikers in January and bought in one who hasn't scored yet.  Just didn't make sense to me.

Rudi was a a terrible player, fair play to Bruce for getting such a great deal.

Because we have pulled up so many trees since he left of course.

In my opinion he didn't cut it for us but that wasn't all his fault. Absolutely lousy service most of the time whenever he played. Add him to the list of players who who turn up to VP and their careers go on hold until they leave.

Did we pull up any trees when he was here?

I thought he was a tree, a big lumbering deep rooted oak

A tree that was plonked in a desert and not regularly tended for or watered?

In his usual standing still position for that goal. Nicely put away but hardly full of movement.  As per.

I wasn't a massive fan of him but out of the strikers we let go, he's the one I would have kept, for the time being anyway.

Yep....why we were so desperate to sell him as soon as the window opened I'll never know. Big mistake.

He helped get a draw in the Leeds game and he was a good sub at this level. I think we could've done with him in the Cardiff and Wolves games, think he'd have buried the McCormack chance.
