estonpidge 1,442 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Personally think that we should be targeting players for loan or purchase who are on the fringes of clubs like Chelsea ***nal spurs liverpool, spurs have sold on a few good midfielders recently for what Norwich allegedly want for a guy entering his last year and with no resale value. Targeting players like Loftus- Cheek would excite me far more. Link to post Share on other sites
boro_lobster 2 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Alex smithies at qpr would be a good addition if we're looking for new keeper Link to post Share on other sites
Tom 2,492 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Interesting bit in Tallentire's article about our attacking midfield options. When talking about Stuani, he says: Boro already have Patrick Bamford and Rudy Gestede pushing for a place in attack and if the club are successful in signing Britt Assombalonga, competition for places will be even more cut throat. It's noticeable that he doesn't say 'if the club sign a striker', but names Assombalonga specifically. I get the feeling it might be quite close. Link to post Share on other sites

mj south 610 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 I'd be very happy with Gunter and Fabio as our 2 RBs Link to post Share on other sites

If we sign him it will be a record transfer fee... was chatting with some boro fans at York yesterday and we will be paying 16mil to get him... apparently Link to post Share on other sites
Tom 2,492 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 I like Gunter. Very underrated. Would have had him over Barragan in the Premier League. Link to post Share on other sites

Dan_Boro_Till_I_Die 1,178 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Cool, very experienced as well. Regarding smashing our record for Assombalonga thats fine by me as long as we get the players to create the chances. Id like us to be able to score more than one goal .

Snowblind 1,711 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Yet another well established and experienced Championship player linked. Encouraging signs indeed! Link to post Share on other sites
BlackTreacle 5 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Howson, Gunter and Assombalonga would all be great additions. Ontop of those three we'd still need a CB potentially a LB and a couple of wingers. Promising signs Link to post Share on other sites
