mustard Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Mates been speaking to Hanley and Lowe. Lowe said to him last week before season kicked off "I'm looking forward to getting back out there and smashing people". Hanley said he's not going anywhere and that Koita has "the best shot he's ever seen from any player at Rovers with both feet" That was just today. The lad does seem to have a rocket on him. Just hoping the rest of his game can complement this power and grab us some goals. I noticed he was pretty either footed too which is nice. Hate to see professional players who can't use their weaker foot, drives me insane. Let's hope he can make up for some of Gestede's goals! Hope we keep hold of Rhodes and use them together. If Rhodes leaves we'll still struggle for goals IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patrickvalery Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Koita has "the best shot he's ever seen from any player at Rovers with both feet" That begs the question, who was at rovers with a better shot but was missing a foot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuart Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Excellent. When does he plan to start doing that? No, you've misunderstood. He means he can wait to meet 'smashing people'. Super, great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevidgeBlue Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 I suspect it will be difficult to find someone worse than Brown at profeesional level ...O Maras and Mckinnons place as the pits is under great threat ! O Mara was awful but at least scored one or two for us. On that basis I'd place Brown alongside Mckinnon as the worst striker I've ever witnessed in a Rovers shirt.

Rovers to take Stevie May on loan from Sheff Wedneday? Hardworking little player with a bit of ability, reminds me a lot of Dickov when I watch him. Sorry if already posted.

If he is coming in, hope Brown as opposed to Rhodes is going out. 5 strikers seems a tad excessive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember him playing very well against us at Elwood last year when they beat us. Caused us problems all game.

Stuart Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Played really well next to a big lummox of a centre forward. So are you seriously suggesting you would replace Rhodes with May and play him alongside your current first choice striker of Brown?Or are you just being mischievous?

A cup of beans Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 http://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2015/08/14/blackburn-eye-wednesday-striker-may/ Anyone seen this? Rovers to take Stevie May on loan from Sheff Wedneday? Hardworking little player with a bit of ability, reminds me a lot of Dickov when I watch him. Sorry if already posted. Kept an eye on May for a few seasons now.One of my must listen radio shows is Radio Scotland 's 'off the ball' It's an irreverent and humorous look at Scottish football. Co host Stuart Cosgrove is a huge Saints fan, and always raved about May. I'd recommend the show, You don't need to know anything about the SCottish scene to enjoy it. I don't. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0079mcc Back to Stevie May... He plays the game how it should be played, with enjoyment and energetic enthusiasm.

roverandout Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Strachan wont pick him because he's too similar to Rhodes and his goalscoring record outside of Scotland is poor, hhe's just a poor man's Andy carroll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donnermeat Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 So are you seriously suggesting you would replace Rhodes with May and play him alongside your current first choice striker of Brown? Or are you just being mischievous? How anybody can advocate playing Brown over anyone is beyond me, therefore it's obviously a wind up. Anybody with eyes that work, that is.

He's more an enthusiastic runner, a Savage of the front line, with equally delightful hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's similar to Rhodes, then he's got a poor goalscoring record (unlike Rhodes), but he's a poor man's Andy Carroll, who is nothing like Rhodes.

roverandout Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 What I mean is, he's not a target man like Rhodes isn't, he's a runner, he's like Andy Carroll with his long mullet and he has a poor goal scoring record outside of scotland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
