RealSlimSladeyy 766 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 9 minutes ago, Mr_Maz said: The page about siliki on the app was made 2 hrs ago The club have signed Cameroon international James Lea Siliki on loan from Rennes. The midfielder joins the club on a season-long agreement subject to the relevant international clearances being received. Boro beat off the interest of a number of clubs to capture the signature Lea Siliki. The player has clocked up almost a century of appearances for Rennes and was a Coupe de France winner in 2018/19. Boro boss Neil Warnock said: “James is another name that came up and he will be another good addition to the squad. My contacts in France are very impressed with him and we feel he will add to what we have, particularly with his range of passing.” Lea Siliki is the 12th summer signing and follows Slovenian international Andraz Sporar as the club’s second confirmed deadline day arrival. All I'm gonna say is that this language suggests there's more deadline signings to be confirmed... 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Youngy228 1,444 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 SO in my opinion its been a good window. As pointed out I said everyone who had signed was a good signing which is unlikely to end up being true. Its easy to say with hindsight but I stand by earlier reasons. I think if we bring in one more defensive cover then it has been a successful window. (Im expecting Bennett and not today) If we bring in more great but I for one will not be complaining if we end up as we are. Some real good business I think when you bear in mind our manager is likely only to have the season and we have a new Head of Football coming in. Link to post Share on other sites
Oldham boro 64 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Trip down memory lane. A great Cameroon midfielder. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
AllBoro10 2,232 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Think Siliki could be our signing of the window. Made up with that one. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Neverbefore 10,695 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Still think we are missing an option at centre back, with only bamba and peltier as back up if we have any of our main 3 out. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Think he’s gone a bit under the radar, but he’s a really quality player at this level. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Boro all the way 23 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Buzzing with these 2 lads today. Another 1 or 2 in by end of the day & would be over the moon with the transfer window Link to post Share on other sites

I think we're probably looking at full backs. As Dijksteel, Howson and Bola can cover if the first 5 are injured. Link to post Share on other sites

Geremi or Job yes Much more recent actually, it was Harold Makoudi. Unless you're being technical - Makoudi was actually born in France, but was from a Cameroonian family. Edit: Same goes for Siliki actually. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

BoroSmoggie 2,678 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 God knows what the first 11 will look like now. Defence is pretty sorted. I’d expect Crooks, Tav, Hernandez, Howson, Siliki all to be in the 11. But does that mean dropping Jones? Also Payero should be knocking on the door when he is up to speed. Great to finally have options and strong options at that. You need a good squad of players to achieve anything top 6. Link to post Share on other sites
A21 106 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 That’s without Stojanovic, Morsy, Browne, Ameobi, Malley, Spence and Coburn 1 Link to post Share on other sites
