Smogzilla 7,385 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Tomlin is great for the system we play. As is Graham. Its been a good window for us. Sad we couldnt keep given for longer but it sounds like villa werent going to budge so hey-ho Link to post Share on other sites
holgater 6 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Tomlin will be banned for the next 3 games, so won't play for us until Sheff Wed away at the earliest! Link to post Share on other sites
2plus2 290 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 I know AK likes to rotate based on form, and rightly so, but is our strongest team for the rest of the season now probably something like this...? ----------------- Given/Steele ----------------- -- Omeruo - Ayala - Woodgate* - Friend -- ------------ Leadbitter - Chalobah ----------- ----- Adomah ---- Tomlin ---- Carayol ----- ------------------- Graham -------------------- BENCH; Steele/Dimi, Gibson*/Hines, Varga, Whitehead, Ledesma, Butterfield, Kamara.

"KM" 1,656 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Does anyone reckon Tomlin was a prime target or was he a panic buy? Link to post Share on other sites
Boro Scot 75 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 2 reds in 3 games?? he'll fit in just fine Link to post Share on other sites
chimpy07 20 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 I would love to see AK's face when Tomlin rocks up at training monday, and he is like huh? Who is this guy.... Security Lol :D Link to post Share on other sites
truka11 3 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 anyway onwards and upwards come on boro looking forward too a cracking day 2moro see ya Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Tellerion Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Not excited about Tomlin at all. Obvious back-up option in case the Dorrans deal fell through, which it did. Graham on the other hand, might be the difference between play-offs and not, really glad we got him in the end. Link to post Share on other sites
Brunners 7,952 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Does anyone reckon Tomlin was a prime target or was he a panic buy? I think we chased him pretty hard in the summer. Link to post Share on other sites
Neverbefore 10,695 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 I don't think Tomlins got a 3 match ban, his red card was for denying a goal scoring opportunity, not serious foul play or anything. Link to post Share on other sites
ManBearPig 1,833 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 it doesnt matter about the red cards atm, it will give him time to get match fit before playing anyway. That seems to be happening with all of our new signings. They dont just walk into the team at any rate. Let them know the system and training methods then slot them in. Lovely jubbly ;) Link to post Share on other sites
Guest unclegrimley Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Come on Lads, Lets all get down to Rockcliff on Monday. I'm Ian Tomlin. I'm Ian Tomlin, No I'm Ian Tomlin.... Put Karanka to the test. Link to post Share on other sites
Batmalan 50 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 whos ian tomlin? i thought we signed lee tomlin :( Link to post Share on other sites
2plus2 290 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Tomlin will provide fight and an end product. That's two things right there that Emnes didn't have in spades. I still rate Emnes, but perhaps what we've been missing is a closer from that position. Think Kamara/Graham are two good options to choose from now too. Link to post Share on other sites
BorofaninCanada 12 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 If the Chelsea lads are youth loans then any chance we will see more ins during the emergency loan period or are we done? Happy with what we got. Hopefully a win this weekend and keep on rolling towards the top 6. Link to post Share on other sites
