Dimmu Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Nah, just checked it out. Rhodes is born English and has English parents. Of course he plays for Scotland as he attended school there.McCormack for me, he is properly Scottish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEL Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Been a fair bit of talk linking us to a striker in on loan - mainly Jordan Rhodes or Ross McCormack.For arguments sake let's say we are actually in for both of these, who would you rather have?Personally I would rather Rhodes, always seems dangerous even when he isn't playing well and always gets a good goal return no matter what. McCormack would offer more all round although perhaps not as instinctive as Rhodes, he can win games in the same way through moments of brilliance.I'd happily take both here for the last 10 games to hopefully get us over the line.

DesertRam Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 With a straight choice it would have to be Macormack for me, due to work effort and assist recordFulham have been using him in midfield, so shows his capabilities etc..imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagerbob Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Why would you sign someone for a month or until the end of the season only to have him play 1 game, maybe 2 until Martin is back. We are already forking out a fortune for Bent, we dont need the burden of forking out for the vastly overpaid mcCormack or Rhodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curtains Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Promotion is vital and we don't really know when Martin is back for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curtains Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 We might be out of the race for automatic promotion before Martin is back if we lose to Norwich and Middlesborough though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ram@Lincoln Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 We've seen in the last few games that we the creating chances side of things is fine, we just need someone to finish them off. I'd take Rhodes as for me, he's the clinical finisher we're lacking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sage Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 McCormack by a country mile. Whilst not a target man per se, he would link up play better than Rhodes, creates as well as scores and can play out wide when Martin comes back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alph Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Are either available? Not seen anything reliable to suggest either player will be going anywhere. Blackburn could have sold Rhodes in January and now they'll loan him out?Rate McCormack. Having that price tag on him has meant he's judged on a higher level. He's still a class Champ forward. It's Fulham that are rubbish for thinking they needed to spend £11m on him. Bizarre rumours. Seem stupid to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CornwallRam Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Simmo mentioned that Martin was still struggling. Hamstring injuries are rarely straightforward and his general fitness will getting worse everyday. Bent has not even started his recuperation yet. It is possible that neither will be back this season. It is likely that neither will play before the international break. By then we are likely to be outside the play off places. To suggest we don't need another striker is a little difficult to fathom.For me, of the two mentioned above, McCormack is the better player, but Rhodes suits our current situation. He can play a bit with his back to goal and is decent in the air. He'd be a slightly different kind of target man to Martin, but effective enough to keep us in the mix.

Dai Capp Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 McCormack all day for me - better for our style, more creative and scores freely... Be surprised if it happened though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manxramselly Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Can we get Adebeyour,if that's how you spell it,to play CB alongside Albertosa,,Cole back from Italy,and Brayford back from where ever he ended up ?then we can start worrying where the goals will come from.Anything can and will happen in the next ten games,we have to support our team,believe in our owners and management team,and pray like sausage with a capital F.

Ambitious Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 McCormack is a funny one, but he isn't anything like Martin. I don't think Rhodes is either, really. As an all-round player then McCormack wins the battle outright comfortably. However, for a central striker then I'd have to say Rhodes. McCormack is very, very similar to Russell. He is incredibly hard working and while he can play with his back to goal and bring other players into play, he does like finding gaps and doesn't tend to battle man-for-man. In an ideal starting XI then McCormack and Russell would be competing for a place. It's an incredible problem to have, but it makes little sense to see why we would go all out. Saying that, if Martin is to miss our next two games then a frontline of McCormack, Ince and Russell would give me a bit more confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
