LeChuck Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Ebanks Blake & Hunt would command big wages and were awful for Wolves last season. It's no surprise they've been released. Overpaid and with their best years behind them. we've got enough of those types already. Completely agree. Wolves had similar issues to us last season with too many players without the hunger and desire to get into the PL.

Jimmy612 Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Mcgugan is on a free, his contract ox up but I would imagine his wages will be very high!! Totally agree with Chaddy on this...I am going to make a suggestion now and Ill grab my tin hat before I do. I feel that sometimes Rhodes limits us as an attacking force. Yes he scores goals but when he doesn't its litterally like playing with 10 men. The rest of his game is pretty abysmal and nothing seems to stick. I genuinely don't want us to sell him but if we get the right money and GB buys some genuine pace and power up there ill be relatively happy... There is the question of replacing his 30 goals a season but that is GB's job!! Mcgugan is on a free, his contract ox up but I would imagine his wages will be very high!!

There is the question of replacing his 30 goals a season but that is GB's job!! Rhodes scored 30 goals BUT, and for me it's a big but.. He is most unhelpful at creating chances for others. Could he be replaced by a striker who scores 17 - 20 goals but plays a bigger part in creating opportunities for others? Strikers are required to do much more than just score goals nowadays, particularly with the lone striker role becoming more prominent. Rhodes is a great weapon to have, but I often think he would be much more useful as a last 25mins grab you a goal type. He has disappeared from too many games this season, not at all his fault due to poor service etc. But sometimes when you are under the cosh you do need a striker to run channels/ win the headers etc to take the pressure off. He can't do that.
roversfan99 Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Would Danny Graham be a good option? Not sure if Di Canio will use him.\
blueboy3333 Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Completely agree. Wolves had similar issues to us last season with too many players without the hunger and desire to get into the PL. you don't want to be agreeing with me
Salgado Is A Hero Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Would Danny Graham be a good option? Not sure if Di Canio will use him.\ He's also just a finisher like Rhodes, Le Fondre etc. There's a reason Swansea got rid and there's a reason Di Canio probably will as well. I know we're in the division below but my point is we need a striker who's gonna contribute in open play.

T.J.Newton Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 When does the transfer window officially open fully?
RockinRover Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Kilgallon would be a brilliant signing if we got him. Experienced at this level and obviously very versatile.
Oklahoma Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Possibly leaving: I read in newspaper "O Jogo" today that Benfica want to keep Diogo Rosado, if the transfer fee is not big. He impressed the manager while he was playing for the B team. The same article claims Lazio is interested in him...

GanG2245 Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 dont want to see goodwillie leave. he will score if chances are given.

Is he better than Dann? dont want to see goodwillie leave. he will score if chances are given.He certainly hasnt impressed much, but Goodwillie has to be a head in the pecking order of the way past his sell by date Nuno Gomes surely.

roverandout Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 dont want to see goodwillie leave. he will score if chances are given. really?? and you know this how? hasn't looked like doing that in 2 years at the club
saxo1man30 Posted June 4, 2013 Author Posted June 4, 2013 west ham making big bids for strikers, hope they don`t target rhodes as they have more than enough to get him.
RockinRover Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 And people say Rhodes has to chase the ball too much here.. just imagine it there.
neophox Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 What about Conor Wickham ? Titus Bramble's contract will expire this month? What about move for him?
Amo Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Titus Bramble's contract will expire this month? What about move for him?Bramble is the MOTD opposite of Pedersen. As armchair fans saw Pedersen score the occasional screamer and think he was class, so too would Bramble's blunders belie his overall ability. He has played at the top level for some time given he's supposedly one of the worst defenders in history. That's me being as objective as possible. I'd probably drink bleach if he joined.
Backroom DE. Posted June 5, 2013 Backroom Posted June 5, 2013 west ham making big bids for strikers, hope they don`t target rhodes as they have more than enough to get him. What I don't understand is where this 'big' money is coming from. Gold and Sullivan come out and plead poverty every chance they get, complaining that they're pouring their life-savings etc into the running of the club and have nothing left... but apparently £15M for one player is within their reach? Something doesn't quite add up there. Either G&S have more money than they're letting on (entirely possible) or the money is being loaned from a bank.
Majiball Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Or maybe they're just spunking the increased TV money before they get it??
beanie Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 So will the Fernandez BSers shut up now? what Fernandez BSers are we talking about?
