Perhaps Henning doesn't see the defence as a priority now, preferring instead a partner to bring the best out of Rhodes. You know the best form of defence is attack!!!

He should be playing more, as he is still obviously a class above, but you've got to balance that against developing Rochina who plays in the same position, and has more to offer the club in the long term.

Berg looks like he is working with the younger players and building for the future.
Its great to see a younger team on the pitch with some experience on the bench that knows what to do if things need changing.
For too long we've had old guys on the pitch with the youngsters on the bench who struggle when they get thrown in to difficult situations.

A sensible addition, in my opinion that continues a positive start for Henning.
I really dont see this at all as a panic buy, a young striker with potential for immediate use if we need him and the chance of a permanent deal in January. Seems like a win / win situation.
Good Luck to the lad ! Show us what you can do.

Henning Berg is looking for the right type of players (& staff) to contribute to the team...it most be a "positive" to rid the team of an individual like Kazim-Richards and bring in a quality team player with future potential like King...
Get behind the team for goodness sake....COYB

Lets make football worthy of respect..!
Lets make the North West be an area respected by all fans not just in England but everywhere on earth.
Instead of hatred let there be mutual respect for other teams, fans and society in general.
It was really nice to hear a Burnley Fan write on our BRFC board and he's clearly a football fan. We should salute all football fans and we must ensure that respect is paramount in our beautiful game.
Healthy banter about other teams is fine by me but i don't like the few mindless people who create hatred for all within our clubs. This hatred can lead to further misunderstandings between rival fans and communities.
Lets send these mindless haters of football & society to the rubbish bin where they belong.
I'm sure we would rather see all clubs in the North West do well which ensures healthy competition and raises the game of football in the area.
We football fans must always be respectful of the game of football, respect the players and the fans, lets not forget the management and administrators who run the clubs and above all else the owners who given time hopefully will continue to invest in our clubs in the North West.
