Supposedly tomorrow according to FB.

Rhodes? Loan or permanent?

[BOB MANSFIELD]

Although also a Rangers fan by adoption, I would prefer to see Villa signing Waghorn for CF .........and most certainly give Tavernier a chance as Right Back. Rangers need the cash...Villa need the qualities these two have.

Genius that move.  Waso it after his goal at Liverpool when we had 10 points from our opening 4.  Really scary that we got 12 from our next 22. Good God we have been really shit for a long time now.

Why are we so short odds to sign Jordan Rhodes? What's the point?

Falls neatly into our haphazard recruitment policy

Resale value - nil
Mobility - minimal
Fit within team - nope
Proven second division performer - yes

[Ozzjim]

Buy enough of the last seasons top scorers and they will score. Bollocks to the supply line!

[Lsvilla]

Why no resale value ? Only 27 next month

Boro are on the verge of signing Patrick Bamford for silly money so I presume that where the link is coming from.

It'll be about four games before everyone is complaining that he's not a real centre forward and we need a new one. Or that he's too fat. Or not running enough.

Richards is crocked, Baker made of glass, De Laet out for the season and Aly off to Greece, we MUST have a defender or two lined up?

We appear to be clearing the decks again with Aly, Gestede and Gollini all gone.  I wonder how much that saves us per week in salary?

Season is a write off anyway now. Prefer to clear the decks asap, and now, even if it leaves us short for the rest of the season. We wont get relegated after all. Will we?

[Malandro]

Rhodes comes across as a bit mardy

[steamer]

And the Midfield ?

[Ozzjim]

Would like to see Sellers and Greene given a few starts to get them into the side to see if they can save us a few quid in the summer.

[LukeJames]

Jordan Rhodes would be an appauling move for us, the exact type of player that we dont need, if we do sign him tben it will  be another example of signing players that have previously done well and just hoping something happens on the pitch without having any sort of forward thinking plan to make it happen.

[Steve67]

The likes of Rhodes and McCormack will score goals but they need a supply line. We can all see it, Bruce can see it too. We all hope he's being supported in trying to get some in.

Exactly.  Then when Kodjia and Ayew come back, we'll be stuck with Rhodes and McCormack/Ayew on the bench with the same shit midfield creating nothing.  Pointless.
