wanderer Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 On 5/15/2017 at 2:55 PM, Lion Rampant said: If he doesn't get any game time against Southampton on Wednesday, he will definitely start v Palace at the weekend. The reality is though that he is unlikely to be anywhere near the first team next season. Man Utd desperately need a "big" season next season and I can't see youngsters (apart from the currently established ones) forming part of that. He may play some league cup games but that will be about that. Suspect he will get shipped out on loan to someone like Wigan next season.

Good assist too, unlucky for Wednesday, would have fancied them in the final v Reading Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donaldo87 Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 That'll be Shinnie getting a call up because he scored against Rangers no doubt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rude Gullit Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Mixed feelings about the Rhodes thing. As the commentator said: it takes a different type of courage to admit you're not right to take a penalty. He cited forestieri and Rhodes as being two off form players who had missed their last pens (and Rhodes hasn't scored in ~15 games). Lo and behold forestieri takes one and misses. BUT, surely it is a sign of that Rhodes is not the iron-willed, greedy type a goalscoring striker needs to be? No real winner in the whole affair (apart from Huddersfield of course), and when you see some of the other Wednesday players who took pens - nervous, scrappy kicks from midfielders and defenders - you really have to think Rhodes should have had the balls to face his own doubts and inspire his teammates as their 'sharp-shooter' forward.

Boynze Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 For Huddersfield in the league 1 play off (which they won) he was not one of the first five takers, ended up talking by the 7th i think, so he has form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to mention that game.  From what I remember the first five penalties on both side were terrible, I think it was something like 2-2 before it went to sudden death.  Then the next four players on each side - the ones who supposedly didn't fancy it - went up and scored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caledonian Craig Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 (edited) Burke substituted after 66 minutes. He really must start taking these chances to show what he can do or these chances will stop coming.

ErsatzThistle Posted May 20, 2017 Author Share Posted May 20, 2017 As long as they don't decide to bring in a more experienced keeper, Jordan Archer will be playing Championship football next season with Millwall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kmcca5 Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Archer made vital saves in The English Div 1 play off final for Milwall. One of their better players so My mate that has a season tickets there tells me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
