    sell rhodes, keep gestede.

    That's how I see it if one of the 2 has to go. Rudy offers far more to the team.

    Don't sell our Rhodes, our super Joradan Rhodes. I just don't think you understand; that if you sell our Rhodes, our super Jordan Rhodes. You're gonna have a riot on your hands.

    Rudy also seems to score against the better opposition, whereas rhodes nets all his against the lesser lights..

    This is where the owners come in, Dan. It would be excellent if they expressed a determination to keep both of them.
    They are very different types of player, and GB has demonstrated that they don't necessarily need to be in the team at the same time.
    If one of them goes, we'll have to look for a player of the same type, unless one of the youngsters steps up.
    Losing both would be very difficult to recover from.

    I almost wish Gestede hadn't scored the hat-trick. It's the kind of thing that makes PL managers sit up and take notice.

    Both would be a loss, but for me RG offers far more than JR.
    I hold my belief ever since I first saw him (JR);
    As a goal poacher he's fine (at this level), but the rest of his game
    Yes his goal tally is impressive, ie chance to strike ratio (also given the way we 'play him' ).
    In any other team, set out to deliver to his strengths 25+ a season would be the return.
    So in effect he could be seen

    From I can gather from GB's post match interviews is that Rhodes and Gestede have had price tags put on them, (in reverse order in my view). If those valuations are matched by an offer, they will let the player to speak to the club in question, if not, then there's nothing more to say. Venkey's were true to their word on this in the last 2 transfer windows and they are so pig headed that I trust that
