He's a lot better than Rhodes
Based on what exactly?

I thought after Ipswich that he deserved a run out, he's been asked to play in positions which mean that he works for the team, but not for himself, thats fine but i think that last night having an extra striker of Billy's quality would've helped.not played much in last few weeks .

Cya Billy. Sadly you are not appreciated by some at the club despite everything you have done. The fact that some no mark from Manchester can come in at the last minute without kicking a ball and get on the pitch ahead of you says it all really.
All I can base this on is what I've seen. I think taking Rhodes over Sharp right now would be pandering to past performances at other clubs.This has been done a million times before.
Rhodes is 5 years younger than Sharp and has scored more Championship goals than him.
Something has happened to Rhodes recently, Wednesday have ruined him and he seems to have lost all confidence but his record at this level is still outstanding.
Billy Sharp is my favourite player of all time but to suggest he's a much better player than Rhodes is just daft.
There were 2 balls last night knocked right across their 6-yard box & at the time we said “if Sharp’s on the pitch, they’re goals” ‘cos the space was there - just no player!
Now - not saying it has to be Billy BUT we need someone with his instinct in the box.
To answer the OP’s question, Billy had a run of poor games & for me rightly lost his place to Donaldo. He’s been a treat to watch but didn’t look too sparkling last night. Up to Billy then to impress Wilder in training so he gets another opportunity to strut his stuff.
Sadly though, with Wilson’s arrival & the likely ‘play him’ demands from Man U, it’s gonna be tough & we may not see many more starts from Billy.
Cameo’s from the bench? Maybe.
Somebody mentioned on shoutbox that we won't keep Sharp and Evans. No way Evans is going anywhere.
I love Billy and I think he was unlucky not to start tonight. The fact he didn't get on is a bad sign for him.
If he goes I'll be gutted but he deserves game time. He's a lot better than Rhodes
He (the Don) nearly scored and drew the foul for the sending off.Wilson was poor when he came on too. Looked a bit lost and lightweight. He’d replaced Donaldson though, who had another one of those games where he does nothing, he really does blow hot and cold. Would have loved to have seen Billy get on, but understand Wilder wanting to frighten Wednesday with some pace.
