  1. This. At home, too. Thirded.
  2. Nugent, De Pena, Downing and Husband out (add in Ayala if this lark about him consistently being 'injured' etc. is true). Whilst we won't bring in a huge amount upfront, these players are now surplus to requirements at the club (even if we go down) and the expenditure on wages would best be freed up. My two cent of Rhodes is that I don't realistically see him playing a big part for us. With Stuani and Gestede, we have two strikers who can play backup to Negredo. Unless AK has a plan we don't know about, I'd snap anyone's hand off if they offered to match what we paid (or even a few million
  3. I just don't see the point in stuani. Yes he's bigger so will be better from corners and works more defensively but why are we sitting back?!? Adama on and let's not let them leave just one back.
  4. Why have we not made any changes? There's a reason we keep conceding late in games. Brining Stubni on accomplishes nothing!
  5. Middlesbrough vs Watford Date: Sunday 16th October 2016 Kick Off: 13:30 Venue: Riverside Setting: Now that the wait for the return of domestic football after the perpetual dullness of the international break is over, Boro must come back strongly. After a difficult start to life in the Prem, Boro have started to look better. A good second half against Spurs and an overall better performance against West Ham should give Boro a platform to build on. Whilst Boro still look a bit shaky at the back and are without enough teeth in the final third, Watford are by no means a team wi
  6. Does Stuani just try and kick it to the keeper's hands every time?
  7. Yes but I'd have liked to see him come out and claim that or punch clear.
  8. Clayton on for de Roon. He's on the yellow and committing far too many fouls
  9. What on earth is Friend doing? Just falls over.
  10. Foreshaw is fantastic to watch. Chambers and Gibson having a good game at the back and Downing looking decent as well. Friend just needs to work on that final ball...
  11. Boro starting well. A couple of nice spells of patient possession and pressing well to get the ball back. Dare I say it, on top at the moment.
  12. Some quality reporting by BBC: "Middlesbrough make three changes. Winger Viktor Fischer makes his first start. Keeper Victor Valdes replaces Brad Guzan in goal and George Friend comes in at left-back. Tottenham make three changes to the team that started against Sunderland last week. Midfielder Ben Davies returns for Eric Dier, Christian Eriksen comes in for Mousa Dembele and Vincent Janssen replaces Harry Kane in attack." Fischer not starting and Friend is replacing... Himself? No mention of the Chambers change either. Also that well known midfielder Davies starts for Spurs in what c
  13. I'm in Canada at the moment so with the time difference in looking for something to brighten up my afternoon!
  14. Who would consider dead wood? You or us? I'd rather have Reach than CDP any day. We as in those on the forum by general consensus. I'm not so sure based solely on the rationale that Reach has had his chance a few times at Boro and hasn't shown any signs of improvement whereas CDP is still a somewhat unknown quantity. Although, Reach did impress at PNE and CDP hasn't shown anything much yet. You never know what's going on behind the scenes though. Boro could've wanted to shift both or simply one of the two and only Reach attracted decent offers so he was he one to go.
  15. Fry new 5 year contract and season long loan to Rotherham
  16. And have 2 strikers in the squad? No chance Fischer as a third. Based on what. My own opinion based on what I've heard/read about the players online. I never claimed otherwise.
  17. Roughly a net spend of +£17m but it's difficult to know for sure with Boro constantly releasing all fees as undisclosed.
  18. And have 2 strikers in the squad? No chance Fischer as a third.
  19. I could see Rhodes out for circa £14m with one wide player (ie a Deulofeu style signing) coming in.
