ABBEY Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 I can see both strengths and weaknesses in both Rhodes and Gestede.... I guess I'm a Gestede hater now as well as a Rhodes hater Abs. and a money stealer on golden balls

Amo Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 and a money stealer on golden balls There's a special circle in hell for those people... along with those who take a minus offer on The Chase.
Neal Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 Got to love the change in attitude towards Gestede now that he is gone. He was touted as the all round striker ("that Rhodes isn't") and was definitely PL quality. Now he's a one trick pony and definitely playing at a level beyond his abilities! When he left I said he'd struggle to get 10 goals....

chaddyrovers Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 is anybody thinking that Marshall or Rhodes might leave before the deadline?
Backroom DE. Posted August 30, 2015 Backroom Posted August 30, 2015 is anybody thinking that Marshall or Rhodes might leave before the deadline? Rhodes is always possible, but I can't see anybody shelling out the £14M up front that the owners apparently want for him. Marshall... based on his form so far this season, unlikely. If his snub of Bowyer on Friday is true, though, then maybe we'll flog him to somebody.
Gav Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 is anybody thinking that Marshall or Rhodes might leave before the deadline? Wednesday are very keen on Marshall, they could well be in for him before the deadline. Rhodes going nowhere unless Sunderland stump up the full asking price which is unlikely. That's how I see things.
AdamRochina Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 With a massive rumour about Charlie Austin going to man United , you think we could get Wilson? I hope we sell a few players ... Evans, Williamson, Lowe and maybe one of Osullivan or lehinhan if they are not going to be played ..get some loan's in ..doniel henry, James Wilson and nick Powell for me
Earlydoors Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 Anyone know if hoilett is one of GB's kids? Would he come here for 10k pw?
AllRoverAsia Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 Anyone know if hoilett is one of GB's kids? Would he come here for 10k pw? Ramsey slags Hoilett big time: http://www.westlondonsport.com/qpr/football-wls-qpr-duo-available-on-frees-ahead-of-transfer-deadline Hoilett is bad news imo
patrickvalery Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 He always struck me as a jumped up little pr!ck. And his old dad had too much to say for himself. But by God he could play. I suspect he's damaged goods now and there's no way he'll come back. Not yet anyway. Maybe another five years down the line when he has completely run out of options.

I suspect he's damaged goods now and there's no way he'll come back. Not yet anyway. Maybe another five years down the line when he has completely run out of options. From Wiki: In January 2012*, Hoilett was named one of the 13 players to watch in 2012 by world football governing body FIFA * Note: whilst still at Rovers! From that level to unwanted by QPR a wannabe big Club now in the Championship. What a dick.
Dunnfc Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 Mid-level bundesliga for Toilet. Tbh be a cracking signing for the likes of most Championship sides, dare i say it but Dyche would sort him out. 40k per week though, seems to have put on the timber too. I'd take him on loan.

Evans, Williamson, Lowe and maybe one of Osullivan or lehinhan if they are not going to be played ..get some loan's in ..doniel henry, James Wilson and nick Powell for me United barely have any strikers as it is, so even if Austin goes there I can't see them letting any go. Rooney, Austin, Wilson will I'm guessing be their forward options for the season as Hernandez will surely leave before the window slams shut.
AllRoverAsia Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 Just seen this. Austin and others including Hoilett have wages cut by QPR in expectation of sale: http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/charlie-austin-rob-green-pay-6342743 How odd of QPR
Wing Wizard Windy Miller Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 I liked Gestede and still think he would have been a better bet up front as a lone striker than Rhodes...He has also got a 100% better scoring record this season than Rhodes
AllRoverAsia Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 Just had a bad thought. If QPR sell Austin and get 15 million will they be desperate to replace him quickly with a proven goal scorer at Championship level?

If QPR sell Austin and get 15 million will they be desperate to replace him quickly with a proven goal scorer at Championship level? If they come calling then I wouldn't accept anything less than £10m. If they don't stump up the cash we simply tell them "Chris Brown isn't going anywhere".
allanncd Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 Rhodes would have to take a pay cut to go to QPR who have self-imposed wages cap of £20k pw

The_Expert Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 you have to laugh though - another of this class of player who thinks that somehow they are 'better than Blackburn Rovers' and need to express themselves elsewhere. If only we had a management and back-room set up that could persuade players to see the reality of life elsewhere, so that players like Hoillet, Bentley and the like would stay to make the club the successful two fingered salute to the 'big clubs' that Jack envisaged
