Was it that Hefele knew more German than the new short-term manager?
Isn't it significant to any of you that Rhodes reserved his best performance not only for his OWN 200th, but also for the opening of the transfer window? Strikers do tend to be selfish. The question to ask is will he keep doing that, or is the weight of evidence all those games in which you've all been moaning about your forward line's absence? The thing to do is surely to keep him AND bring in a younger replacement / partner and see how he crumbles that cookie. If Jordan wants it can become a rope to hang him, OR a new lease of life. At the bottom you do need somebody who will give you a functioning attack every game, rather than once every few weeks ...... which is also why you need a permanently functional manager rather than an inhabitant of his own inner world. There'll be a choice of two repeat buttons available for the Rotherham game, and the one you choose will probably set the tone for future signings and the rest of your season. At the moment I look at your manager and see Gary Caldwell at Chesterfield, fashioning an imaginary team to play in a way that rarely broached reality. If we ever seemed to have hit a positive he always interpreted it in a way that took us back to square one. A win against Rotherham, two or three in the onion bag and you'll be moving forward, but you'll need more of it won't you? It isn't just going to keep happening accidentally.
