Will cost us a shed load! Rhodes cost Blackburn £8m. Rhodes is unproven at this level, Defoe is proven at all levels including International.

In terms of a long term investment, if we're going to fork out that much on a forward, I would rather Rhodes.

This post has been merged from a topic called 'Jordan Rhodes (rumour)' by Moose Plus surely if Palace play the type of football under Pulis which is likely, (which I'm not knocking, it's a means to an end - that end being premiership survival) then Defoe is neither particularly physically strong or that adept at holding the ball up whilst support arrives. He's quick and he's a poacher but he needs the ball in the box with support players running through, playing the formation we have been, that simply is not going to happen. Rhodes on the other hand whilst I accept is unproven on a Premiership level is over 6ft and fits that criteria perfectly Plus he's a big lad, Pulis loves a big lad!!!

Rhodes, Zaha and Ince upfront would scare the daylights out of people and pretty much guarantee our survival in my opinion. Attachment: 442.jpg (90.78Kb)

his hold up play is poor Michael Appleton said earlier this year when he was manager of Blackburn that he wanted him to be better holding the ball up.

BLackburn paid 8 million for him I believe the fee was up to £8 Mill. The fee was not dependant on clauses, just agreed instalments up to £8m, so Blackburn have to pay it no matter what, and they can't currently afford to do so. Rhodes is on a reported £37k a week, combined with an estimated £8-12m transfer fee, that's an enormous investment for a player I'm not convinced we need. I'd rather see that spread over 3-4 players to strengthen other areas of the team.

There are post's of mine only a couple of hours ago of me saying exactly that , so not quite sure why you have gone all the way back to May to correct me on something I already know? strange. If I had read your post of a couple of hours ago I wouldn't have felt the need to post as I did.
