Snowblind 1,734 Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 I hope to god bringing in width means a move to playing a number 10... But I can't see it under Warnock. Could even work with only NML coming in today: GK - Bettinelli / Archer / Brynn RB - Dijksteel / Fisher / Spence CB - Fry / Wood CB - McNair / Hall LB - Bola / Coulson CM - Morsy / Hackney CM - Howson / Saville RW - Bolasie / Mendez-Laing 10 - Tavernier / Akpom LW - Watmore / Johnson ST - Fletcher / Assombalonga Not a huge switch from what we've played, but would mean we could play the ball through the side rather than just hoofing it into the channels. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
TeaCider24 12,646 Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 (edited) 2 hours 45 minutes left. Our squad is still light, more so with Wing going out. Read a stat earlier that we've played the fewest players of any team in the Championship. Link to post Share on other sites

TeaCider24 12,646 Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 (edited) Rotherham play Derby next. Could be Lewis Wing v Patrick Roberts. Would love Wing to score the winner. Link to post Share on other sites
Whoppy 593 Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Question: would the signings of Fisher, Bolasie and Mendez-Laing suggest to you Boro are really going for a top 6 finish, or more just to add a few bodies and happily finish in the top half? I haven’t been looking at the other top half teams and what they have been doing transfer wise. Link to post Share on other sites

Couple points off playoffs. We have played spence and johnson on the wings. mendez laing and bolasie is a huge upgrade in my eyes Fisher looked really solid in his 1st game and fletcher coming back also, utfb 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I think we're doing what we can within the tiny budget we have imo, if Warnock can spin that into a top 6 spot then that's massive. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
