It's interesting that we don't seem to be linked with many wingers, maybe that it a sign that he's thinking about playing wing backs. Thinking about it he talks about adding to the spine/core. Dijksteel/spence RWB Johnson/New Signing LWB? and fry hall and thee other new cb we are chasing. seem to be names popping up still. deffo could be 3cb and wingbacks hes looking at.

Adamjr9 139 Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Forest, Stoke, Wednesday and Derby also in for Murphy so it’ll probably be another window when we get turned down by him then. Link to post Share on other sites

Jamie-H 1,322 Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 (edited) https://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2019/01/30/report-middlesbrough-confident-about-loaning-newcastles-jacob-mu/ Just a fun thing to remember as Murphy crops up again, that was the Gazette in that Pulis January window who pushed Murphy out there as a main target and we were pretty confident back then. No harm in trying but that Murphy's turned us down I think it's 3 times now? Josh I think we put a couple of bids in to Norwich under Monk I think it was? Warnock has in his favour he convinced his twin to go to Cardiff and that might be an edge but hopefully unlike the Pulis days this is just us putting an attempt in whilst beinb wide eyed about other targets in the meantime.

Tom 2,492 Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Obviously Gibson training with the club in close season doesn't mean much, but you'd think it would hint that the signs of a return were broadly positive at this point. Link to post Share on other sites

Smogzilla 7,385 Posted August 13, 2020 Author Share Posted August 13, 2020 It weird that they would hide the photo after he was very obviously training with us last season. Link to post Share on other sites
Tom 2,492 Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 It will be interesting to see if the Gazette report on this. Given that there was a photo, which people have seen, of Gibson training at Boro, there is clearly a story there. If they don't report on it, then that says a lot about whether they have to run stories past the club. Link to post Share on other sites
