tylergomez 53 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Inthink its a bit rich people complaining about tomlins weight. He mey be the fittest fastest player we have with the best stamina. But weve seen a picture so hes a fat *** I seem to remember a Boro player of years gone by getting this same stick. Might have been Dean Windass?? Anyway he scored in some game a flashed a T-Shirt which said something like 9.9% relating to his body fat. Because the manager wouldn't allow any of them to have more than 10% body fat. How many forum mombers have less than 10% body fat? It ain't easy I can tell you! I am sure Tomlin's fitness it fine. As someone else said - can you see Karanka tolerating an unfit team member? No way. This is where I am made to look a fool as Tomlin is sold tomorrow and Karanka reveals that his being overweight was the driving factor haha Link to post Share on other sites
tylergomez 53 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 I know this is a forum and everyone gets a say but this anti tomlin stuff is awful. His performance at man City was one of best performances I have seen in a boro shirt since juninho. He tortured world class players. I remember watching him at Peterborough and he was alot bigger then than he is now he is stocky but a class act. No way would aitor let him be overweight and still play in friendlies he is pivotal for promotional in my opinion he is a game changer Can't argue with this! Link to post Share on other sites

TAPOUT 361 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 I have nothing against Tomlin, I think he is, at his best a good, but more often than not a mediocre championship footballer. Premiership footballer? I would be surprised if he made the grade. But there are those that espouse that he PL quality, with little evidence to support the theory, I might add. did you go the man city match? Is that your little evidence. Wolves home Drby away Brentford play offs home He is one of the most skillful players in the championship. Why should we sell him. Link to post Share on other sites
richmfc 41 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 "Tomlin isn't fat" righto.. No one who is fat holds the fat in thier upper stomach. Look at any fat person its around their lower stomach Link to post Share on other sites

No way would aitor let him be overweight and still play in friendlies he is pivotal for promotional in my opinion he is a game changer I thought his best game last season was at home against Charlton. Ludicrous performance with a great goal to boot. Man City would've been the one I picked had he managed to score instead of hitting the post. He was on the same pitch as David Silva that day, show someone with no clue about football that game, and ask them which player was the creative outlet for the champions of the Premier League and there's only one player they could pick. I personally think Tomlin works hard for the team no matter where he's played. He might be having a mare, but he never becomes a passenger, always after the ball and if no one is feeding him (probably a poor choice of words) he'll come deep to get it.

Well yeah if he can do that to one of the best defenders in the world id say its a bit of evidence i don't no whats peoples problem with him he a good player one of our best players last season easy.

Neverbefore 10,940 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Not sure I'd want Pato. I've seen him play dozens of times as an AC Milan fan, he was overrated before his injuries and just shocking after. And he hasn't exactly endeared himself in Brazil either. Would come with a big price tag and an even bigger ego, not one I'd want around the squad. Link to post Share on other sites
Dynamo Kev 1,557 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 tomlin in an interesting meeting? what could it be lets speculate:- 1/ he's joking on, he might have an inkling we(the fans) are gong transfer crazy right now and be looking though the forums laughing at us. 2/ hes actually been to a meeting and informed of a substantial transfer bid for him from a premier league team. 3/ he has been pulled in about letting his belly stick out in public giving him a negative image. from now on he has to wear a girdle in public. 4/ he requested a meeting due to all the transfer incoming and was told he's a backup player to downing at no10 or left wing to whoever. 5/ he requested a meeting to ask about his role at the club this season. found out he is very much in AK's plans for the club this season and was also informed about other transfers targets etc Link to post Share on other sites

It is, but it shouldn't be a surprise given the fickle nature of football fans. I like watching Tomlin, he's a proper footballer, a natural i suppose, looks so comfortable in possession and confident of his own ability. Link to post Share on other sites
