5 goals tonight in 17 mins since his first! Games still going. Great young talent. To think keano didn't think he was good enough for Ipswich and let him go <laugh>. Would be a great signing for us but i doubt we could get him now
 
He's scored 5 now?? Incredible. Playing out of his skin for the scouts then! Hope we've got one there <laugh>

Yes lets hope so, the fact that Keane didn't think he was good enough probably shows why he had to spend too much money at Sunderland.

Aye well the guys an idiot clearly! Bet Rhodes' asking price has just tripled tonight now!
 
I've scored 5 goals in a game before but never made it to ludicrous level.
 
Thing with beckford he is percieved to have work rate and attitude problems which were clear and was never a clinical striker in the sense you give him 2 shots he'll score 1 goal Rhodes seems like that type of clinical player
 
Beckford was always overrated anyway. He missed more than he scored. He was lucky to score against Man U.

Becchio was the true star behind Beckford's success that season!

Despite his problems, Beckford did still manage to score 10+ goals last season. Imagine what Rhodes would get...
 
Ah, phrased it badly. I meant that Beckford never signed for us in spite of the press linking us with him non-stop throughout that particular transfer window. But the approach of him failing in the PL works better actually. Yeah, I think he was just unable to adapt to the PL. in fact he ain't doing too great for Leicester...

Beckford was like 27 and doing well in a **** league but that be great in the fizzy pop. If he was any good he would have been in that league at 21. I played with some better players in league one.

You played in league 1? Who are you?
 
Speaking of Leeds players.. Snodgrass anyone <whistle> Reckon he could stick in a better cross than Obertan

Can't understand how he's still at Leeds. Good player.

EDIT: Ah, Wikipedia:
In June 2011, it was reported that Leeds had put an £8 million valuation on Snodgrass and that they were looking into offering him a new contract.

I think that after that game, he is going to cost too much to gamble on, risky, i expect at least a bid of £5m or £6m before Huddersfield accept, and is a League 1 player worth that? and i dont doubt the lads talent but would he be able to do the same to Premier League defenders?
