I would be interested to hear your views on Jordan Rhodes though, why does he not get into the squad, let alone the team, yet Fletcher does??? Rhodes and McCormack are the two most natural goal scorers you have at your disposal, why is Rhodes not used??
The reason is because Strachan's a prideful, arrogant dick, plain and simple. Similar to Wallace, he's made excuses in the past for not using Rhodes that didn't really stand up to scrutiny, and now he'll never do anything that might show him up for being wrong. His main complaint about Rhodes was that he didn't think he could play as a lone striker. The only problems with that are that a) Rhodes has successfully played the role at times at club level and b) we often revert to 2 up front when we need to in internationals. Last night we started with 2 up top, and it would have been the ideal chance for Rhodes to make himself a serious contender.
