Think when all fit Watmore/Johnson - Fletch/Britt/Akpom - Browne/Tav/Spence is a pretty good selection to choose from. Watmore - Fletch - Browne would probs be my favourite 3 to see what they could do, with Tav playing centrally just behind them. Would Tav move to the middle then behind the strikers?

Aphex_Boro 1,444 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Any mention of when Fletcher is back? Would be quite excited by our forward players with him fit and Bolasie coming in Link to post Share on other sites
TLF10 4,496 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Warnock said Fletcher should be end of Jan. Any sooner is a bonus. Good news on Bola. ideally get Fletcher signed up next as he got 6mths left and then Sav who become an important player under Warnock who has 18mths left. Would hold fire on Marv just yet.

Aphex_Boro 1,444 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Losing both Fletcher and Britt at the end of the season would be a bit of a kick in the teeth financially, although I doubt either would be happy to take a pay cut to stay so it looks likely 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Ruathain 96 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 I would like fletcher to get a contract extension, I think he would have a lot to offer playing under Warnock he is still only 25 so just about to hit the peak of his career I also think Warnock could get the best out of him. Britt I was over the moon when we signed him I used to go watch him play at Posh and always rated him, but over all he has been a disappointment so I wouldn't shed too many tears if he left. I think we still need another striker in January, I can't really see Fletcher being up to full fitness much before the season ends after 5 months, it only takes another injury to our other 2 strikers and then we are in panic mode again.

I assume that the club has a one year extension on Fletchers contract hence why they aren’t in a hurry. We’re not going to let him go on a free. Link to post Share on other sites
TLF10 4,496 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 There an interview on bbc tees from today with Warnock. About 10mins long. Regarding transfers he said following. would like 3 players. 2 wide men and a defender which would allow him to send Wood out on loan so he can play week in week out. But wont let Woos go obv until he has a defender in Said if he does not get all he wants and just one or two he can live with that as hopefully fletcher will be back mid to end of Jan and Hall not long after that. And Howson sooner than both. Link to post Share on other sites

Ligue 1 and Serie A have a full set of fixtures on both those dates. Makes sense if it's Ligue 1, as Warnock has previous in that market. Plus the teams in Ligue 1 are in a bit of bother financially so may be more willing to sell. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Thing with Britt is he has scored 11, 16 & 15 in his time with us. Which when you look at his record is what he usually averages apart from one season in league one when he got over 30. So to that extent he has been exactly what we bought, it’s just that he cost a LOT of money so we expect more. I actually like Britt and want him to succeed but if his wages can get someone younger and on lower wages who can average 15 goals a year then I’m for that too. Link to post Share on other sites
oldman 155 Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 There seems to have been a massive sea change in how we conduct our transfers and player retentions this season. Good younger players are being tied down, no panic buying, and signs of a real strategy. Maybe some good has come from all the financial turmoil. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
