January transfer window 2020

[Guest]

If we got Curtis, Chapman should go out on loan for sure. If we got Rhodes, then Brereton should go out on loan to Holland and Samuel could depart. If we got Gorrin then Smallwood could've gone. 

Dominoes, we went first in the summer by selling Raya to try and start the chain, it failed miserably and backfired. This time we need to wait for someone else to start that chain.

Pirlo, Mulgrew, I can see the similarities ?

both past it.........

Mulgrew said he wants to play till 40 and he wants to play for Scotland as long as possible.  Something he should have packed in ages, so he'll be seeking first team football anywhere he can get it i reckon.  You can't be seizing up on anyone's bench if those are your aims.

I remember this interview, this was when he was vegan, which I dont think he is anymore. My point being, things change. Then/Now.

Never. Go. Back.

Rhodes was difficult to fit into any decent teams when he had the finishing of Kylian Mbappe and first touch, pace and guile of an elephant. His goals to game ratio suggests that even the goal scoring is becoming difficult. No thanks.

[roversfan99]

Goalscoring is the primary function of a goalscorer. If you are scoring 20 goals a season you are doing your job, even if you do have (massively exaggerated) limitations elsewhere.

For every Roque there is a Dunny

For every Bentley a Berg

So going back isn’t as clear cut as you make it out to be at all.

That said he hasn’t played regularly but was it a hat trick last month in his first proper start?

Id rather see Rhodes up top than a finished but much loved Graham who can only give you 60 mins once a week. Or that useless Brereton.

That said we could sign whoever the problem or rot is Mowbray and id rather see him gone above all else.

To be fair, if we are going to go back, at least go back to someone who was brilliant for us, not spend loads on someone like Gallagher who was average in his best season!

Huddersfield sign Andy King. Fulham sign Jordan Archer.

Anything happening at Ewood or is Mulgrew 'like a new signing'?

To be fair, wouldn’t be happy with either of them.

Don’t get the Rhodes desire personally and Iv heard nothing to suggest we are even interested. Unicorn journalism is my betting, think he can stop being mentioned now

Any news?

[1864roverite]

Chadster there is no news as there are no leaks around the Ewood grapevine anymore. There is only speculation pal

We struggle to score goals (especially now Dack is out) and he is a goal scorer.

Haha. But mostly, they don't work, I would say.

The exceptions are Hendry, Berg and Byrom.

Dunny never really hit the heights after his return imo. Lots of time out through injury and non-selection.

I can easily add to the failures...Pickering, Metcalfe for starters..Carew?

Both good looking.

Both speak a foreigh language.

Free kick specialists.

Its uncanny.

Another championship club has had permission granted to speak to Maddison. Rovers??

[JacknOry]

Are we really comparing Mulgrew to Pirlo?

Dunn was still easily worth bringing back. He was crucial for us when fit for a fair bit of his time.

Don't do it.

It won't be us, no matter how much the board wills it.
