Will 2,958 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 If it meant having Bryan at LB and traore staying I'd even meet him halfway and let him keep shotton! Seen wolves are after that city left back, wonder if we could tempt them with a decent offer for Douglas if we can't get Bryan. If pulis wants a set piece taker you won't find much better at this level. Although Zinchenko played at left back last season he’s actually an attacking midfielder by trade Link to post Share on other sites

Borodane 6,301 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Tony Pulis hoping to make up to 4 new signings this week. https://www.teamtalk.com/news/exclusive-boro-in-for-burnley-striker-discuss-deals-with-saints-everton-wba I have some trouble believing that one. I just can't see Southampton going after Gibson when they are signing Vestergaard for 18 million. That's a man with more than 200 Bundesliga appearances, in the Bundesliga team of the year last season and a full Danish international. He is going to play. Are they really looking to change their whole central defense in one window? Looking at their squad they do seem weak there and I don't think Wesley Hoedt was the player they were hoping for when they paid big bucks last summer. I'd take Phillips and Besic in a heartbeat but 15 million for Vokes is a lot of money. Link to post Share on other sites
Changing Times 12,347 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Vokes is just Gestede with a few more Premier League goals. Link to post Share on other sites
Borodane 6,301 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Vokes is just Gestede with a few more Premier League goals. That would kind of indicate that he is better than Gestede. But kind of agree that we don't need two of those kinds if that's what you are emplying. Link to post Share on other sites

Foogle 2,104 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 I must have missed something, but where did this notion of Gibbo playing at left back come from? I think it's because he's not been sold yet and we bought Flint, really can't see it myself... Link to post Share on other sites
Teacider 108 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 I must have missed something, but where did this notion of Gibbo playing at left back come from? Assumptions from he's left footed, has done it before and Pulis' penchant for playing CBs at FB I think Link to post Share on other sites

I think it's because he's not been sold yet and we bought Flint, really can't see it myself... That’s all a bit tin foil hat, there is another month to go in the transfer window. Im sure that he will be sold. If not then it’s not bad to have 3 decent CB’s covering 2 places. We did that 2 seasons ago with Ayala, Chambers and Gibson, no one freaked out then, he’ll we even had Bernardo as a 4th backup. Link to post Share on other sites
mendieta420 1,008 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 If we pay 15m for Vokes we’ve been well and truly pantsed. A WBA fan told me before Phillips and Pulis had a big falling out. But like it or not, Teamtalk news usually originates from Bailley who usually gets Boro stuff right. Link to post Share on other sites

Foogle 2,104 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Come on guys it's not fair to judge the squad before the season starts, at least wait until 10 games in before forming suicide pacts... Link to post Share on other sites
