I think Rhodes has a decent touch on him
You're right, a different player to Nelson and will less often try to rely on a piece of skill to open up a situation, but I think he has had a really composed first touch when in on form. I think he's a similar style of player to Dean Ashton, obviously less good. Hopefully he can rediscover some form.
I really don't know if he fits our system or not. People have often said he doesn't suit being a lone striker bit I think of Farkes system works as he wants it to there should be 2 creative players up with him when we're in possession. Apparently Farke has succeeded most when he has had a proper poacher in his team. So I'm hopeful
