If we sell no one and get one more winger in I could settle with that fact is no one will take Rudy or Shotton of our hands

Plays on the wing and at 10 as well so that’s encouraging

Going off recent history we’re probably signing a defensive midfielder called Tumble Weed

Absolutely brutal only place we’re going at the minute is mid table change is needed very quickly

Shows you how poor the Championship is this season when we’re currently top and we’re dreadful

Not enough defenders in their for me

I’m convinced that us and Villa share the same scouting department it’s getting ludicrous at this point

McQueen is a good signing and is hardly a Pulis full back so suggests to me we might be sticking with wing backs for a while

Fletcher scored for Barnsley against Millwall in a League One play off final win a couple of years ago so that could be it

Not sure he fancies it ... Boro have a foreign target now. Nixon on Twitter being asked if Van La Parra is coming

Put in a lovely cross at one point too. Although obviously Ryan Shotton would be keeping him out of our team this season anyway.

Great performance Howson in particular was sensational. Tell you what I think we should be targeting wing backs in the loan market - loving this new system

MIDDLESBROUGH. Van la Parra at HUDDERSFIELD now high up on hit list. More later. From Nixon

Stoke under Rowett seems pretty similar (in fact probably worse) than us under Monk last year. Young relatively fancied manager comes in and spends a tonne of cash after being relegated but it starts unwravelling pretty quickly.

Well in Ojo's case, if he goes to Villa he's competing with Kodija, Grealish, Adomah and Bolasie. If he comes here he has to compete with Ryan Shotton. So much easier to get into the Villa team then
