'He can't control or pass' - Sheffield Wednesday fans slaughter 28-year-old after cup loss

With just one win in their last eight matches, times are tough for Sheffield Wednesday right now and they didn’t get any easier on Tuesday night after they were dumped out of the FA Cup by Swansea City.

The Owls have failed to score an away goal from open play in 2018 so far and bringing that kind of form to Premier League outfit was always going to end badly.

Carlos Carvalhal’s outfit eventually won 2-0 against his former side to reach the quarter-finals of the competition for the first time since 1964.

The big priority for Wednesday of course is surviving relegation from the English Championship, but fans were left disappointed with the result and performance, slating a number of first team stars.

One player who received more criticism than most was Jordan Rhodes, who was completely ineffective in the final third.

Supporters have completely lost patience with the out-of-form striker and his six goal return this season, with many now calling for him to be sold this summer.

They took to Twitter to share their thoughts…

I can't get over how poor Jordan Rhodes first touch is.. how has he cost 10 mill. He can't control or pass a football. League one at best #swfc

Watching Rhodes play for #swfc gives me genuine hope I might still make it as a professional and I'm 38, with a dodgy knee and a heart condition

Release Jones, Butterfield and Loovens immediately, sell Rhodes for whatever we can get for him, just get rid #SWFC

Played with 10 tbh with Rhodes on. Waste of a place sadly. Not the player he once was #swfc

Wonder if people will soon start saying, that Jordan Rhodes doesn’t want to play for Sheffield Wednesday #swfc

Anyone who thinks Jordan Rhodes is a good football player just doesn’t know football!! #swfc
