beanie Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 Murray scored more goals last season though, and his all round game is far better. Whittingham is a fantastic player - one for the fantasy teams next year because he'll get a lot of points. Rhodes doesn't get to start for Scotland and he doesn't make team of the year ahead of those you mentioned. It's not a conspiracy or anything, he's just not as good as many on here believe he is. Cardiff and Swansea have both just bought £8-10 million strikers. Neither looked at Rhodes. I don't think any PL club will at the moment. I'd rather have Rhodes than Murray any day of the week i'm afraid just cause he got more last year does not mean he's better i'd hazard a guess that Rhodes has nearly as many career goals as murray despite being around 6 years younger.

T.J.Newton Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 I'm glad there are people and other clubs that don't fully appreciate Rhodes ability if it means he'll be with us longer.
G Somerset Rover Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 Le Chuck I don't think you can have watched Murray that much. He's a bit of a lump. Palace's fans were amazed at how many he scored too. He was bang average (being kind) the season before. Rhodes guarentees goals. A club will come in for him sooner or later. It's just a case of when.
Hasta Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 Andrews was a League Two midfielder when we signed him, not League One. And we were in the Premier League. So he jumped three levels, not one! WIthout wishing to nitpick, no he wasn't. He played his last game for MK Dons away at Leicester in league 1.

What garbage, here's a player who hardly gets any service from a @#/? team, playing in a negative, unstable, etc.... atmosphere, but STILL manages to bang in nearly 30 goals!! God knows how many he would bag with a decent team and better service next season!! He's still young and learning his trade, he's a top, honest, genuine lad who always strives to improve his game. One of the most potent goal scorers we have seen at Rovers since Shearer, hope to god he stays, because without him, we WOULD be playing the bell enders next season in Div 1!
had.e.nuff Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 I'd rather have Rhodes than Murray any day of the week i'm afraid just cause he got more last year does not mean he's better i'd hazard a guess that Rhodes has nearly as many career goals as murray despite being around 6 years younger. Murry only got 12 more goals in career but in150 more games,last season was a one off for him .Get a good supply for Rhodes and he will get more than 30 this season
pick32 Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 Chris Flanagan thinks there is other clubs coming in for murphy and we could miss out.
DavidMailsTightPerm Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 Interesting that most news seems to be coming from LET - and not ITK'ers !
blueboy3333 Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 Flanagan on twitter:- Main worry Rovers had about this Murphy deal was other clubs coming in late, and suggestions that could happen now. Could get interesting.
Majiball Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 I completely see where you are coming from but Judge was the League One player of the season and Murphy was Crewe's player of the season. Crewe are well known for rearing quality players. If judge was the league one player of the season why does everything I can find say Matt Ritchie of bournemouth??? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2298547/Football-League-Awards-2013-Matej-Vydra-wins-npower-Championship-Player-Year-award.html http://www.football-league.co.uk/flawards/news/20130324/the-football-league-award-2013-winners-announced_2293338_3116025

rovers11 Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 Leeds have joined the race for Murphy according to the LT. As long as no prem clubs come in for him, I reckon he'll join us.
Majiball Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 Alternatively I haven't read said conversation on here and wasn't thus aware of it.
T.J.Newton Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 Leeds also chasing Murphy according to LT, they haven't made a bid yet aperently, I think this could drag on, Also does anybody else think that if we sign Murphy it will be instead of Jones as we don't really need both(though I wouldn't complain if we did get both)
beanie Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 Alternatively I haven't read said conversation on here and wasn't thus aware of it. Must have scrolled right past it to search out the quote you were looking for.
GanG2245 Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 Leeds have joined the race for Murphy according to the LT. As long as no prem clubs come in for him, I reckon he'll join us. unnamed premier league club too. (source - twitter) AVFC Transfer Tweet @AVFCTransTweet3h Late interest in Luke Murphy from an unnamed premier league club. #crewealex #avfc
Mani Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 Leeds also chasing Murphy according to LT, they haven't made a bid yet aperently, I think this could drag on, Also does anybody else think that if we sign Murphy it will be instead of Jones as we don't really need both(though I wouldn't complain if we did get both) I think GB might fancy them both with an eye on selling Etuhu...that would leave Jones / L.Murphy / Williamson and Lowe for those to central defensive midfield spots
Stuart Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 Alternatively I haven't read said conversation on here and wasn't thus aware of it. Get off my back, Majiball. Your just a bully!!!
pick32 Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 Would be gutted if we misses out on murphy looks a good young box to box player, we should also try for Middlesbrough left back Adam Reach if olsson finally leaves.
Mani Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 Villa interest in Murphy now...possibly?? If so the our bid is doomed!! However, as iv said before when uv seen the likes of Shearer, Bellamy, Rsc and Jones come and go..you ain't gonna lose any sleep over not signing Luke Murphy!! A good player...no ones bigger than the club

However, as iv said before when uv seen the likes of Shearer, Bellamy, Rsc and Jones come and go..you ain't gonna lose any sleep over not signing Luke Murphy!! A good player...no ones bigger than the club I agree - if he signs now we know he genuinely wants to be here - if he goes elsewhere, good luck to him, and we move on.
adz4d2 Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 If he does go to villa hell be joining his best mate Westwood, who he played alongside for 14 years
Mani Posted June 29, 2013 Posted June 29, 2013 If he does go to villa hell be joining his best mate Westwood, who he played alongside for 14 years Who could blame him for wanting Villa? Big club, PL status and willing to give youth a chance! We'll see..Flanagan hopeful he'll choose us!
