pikerman 1,089 Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Sorry my tablet seems to be acting up re my previous post. What I was trying to say was that the club seems to be going in two different directions at the same time, which is never good and will derail this season. Never have we needed a DOF more than now Link to post Share on other sites
DurhamRed 2,043 Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 I'm not gonna hold it against Mr T because he's got a massive opportunity. But the problem is he was signed by Warnock so will be favoured by Warnock like Ikpeazu and Crooks are. While players the club sign like Van Bergen, Payero etc will find it harder and suffer more harsh treatment. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I like the signing of Mr T - we lose nothing really and he has the potential to come in an surprise a few but to come in ahead of a 6 million pound rated Argentinian who is 'technically best at club' is a nonsense. If I was being kind id say it was Warnock taking pressure off Payero and he'd be in in a couple of games time but I'm not convinced at that! Link to post Share on other sites

BoroYorkie 94 Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Warnock wants players that he can shout instructions to, say ‘ya with me’ and then they try to do it. One last season doing it the way he always has and with the same sort of players he’s always had. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing as it could get us promoted or at least on a more positive track going forward. However, we still need him to quickly integrate the (potentially 3) foreign speaking players otherwise they will hate being here, never live up to expectations and Boro would be worse off for it. Because I think Payero, Van Bergen and Sporar look like they could be very good additions. Comments like "If we are, it's nowt to do with me." don’t help build relationships with players or fans it just suggests fractions within the club. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
DevKWat 2,365 Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Warnock isn’t daft, he knows we’re going in a totally different direction next summer. Surely he can’t expect the club to sign 6/7 players he wants that go against the club on 3 year contracts that will be useless in 12 months time? Link to post Share on other sites
TeaCider24 12,401 Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Given van Bergen is Dutch, I'd be surprised if he wasn't fluent in English. Warnock has already said that Sporar speaks very good English. Link to post Share on other sites

Who on earth is writing off the season after FOUR games? I agree we threw the QPR game away.. but that was a blip imo, an own goal and no attacking option to replace Ikpeazu. We get the three points at QPR (which we were more than capable of doing and we would have been on 2ppg after four matches. Lets see where we are at Xmas. A point away at Derby isn’t a bad result. But if the players coming in to strengthen us are not the ones the manager wants then what is the point. Warnock is a stubborn old goat and he will not give them game time to prove his point.
