I know nowt about this guy .... & I'm not doing the "let's buy him" bit, but he's scored 19 league goals this season, plus 6 in Scottish U21's.

Well, he's scored 5 tonight & still 20mins to go. (AWAY from home, too).

when you're, hot you're hot I suppose.

He's very good seen him play alot this season and doesn't piss about in front of goal, but we can't afford talent like this. I would be surprised if Huddersfield sell him when they are trying to get promoted and they have a wealthy owner who doesn't need the money.

Two words: Jermaine. Beckford.

Not saying Jordan Rhodes doesn't look like a potentially very good player and I'm not saying that he wouldn't cut it as a Premier League striker but I take it Huddersfield were on Sky or something tonight because the hype (for someone who was already having a great season) has gone from minimal to 'this guy is the next Alan Shearer'

He's going to have to do a lot more than score five goals at Wycombe before he's the new anything.

I'd say a move to a lower Premier League team like Bolton would probably do him good, I doubt he's going to go any higher- and he'll probably end up lower (West Ham)

Watched it tonight, very impressed

Spurs were there, if he goes there there's a chance they'll ruin him for a while.

There was a reason as to why Andy Walker didn't get bought by a premier league club. Think on. ;)

When did I say anything about Jordan Rhodes being a Premier League striker? I've no clue who the lad is, hence my not passing judgement. Anyway, :zzz:.
