Brunners 7,952 Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 In the Gazette piece on transfers theres a quote from woodgate that says he would like to bring in a number 10. So curious who he would identify for that role. Link to post Share on other sites

I couldn't give a crap what he does or doesn't do on social media but we are paying his wages so I suppose he could pretend to give a *** even if it must be obvious to all by now that he doesn't and will disappear again if he's able to do so. Another salutary lesson that you can't trust the Danes and if Middlesbrough and indeed Oneboro had any sense we would rid ourselves of the scoundrels. Absolutely, if we could get shot of McNair and Randolph too, we’d finally have some harmony in the dressing room. Link to post Share on other sites

Borodane 6,246 Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Gazette understands that there is nothing imminent regarding incomings. It's going to be a slow summer. Link to post Share on other sites

mj south 610 Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Interesting to see that Woodgate wants a No 10, makes me think that the 433 that alot of us were thinking would be the formation isn't what he has in mind, could be going 4231 after all Link to post Share on other sites

Agree with you, although maybe he just want options to be able to actually change formations depending on need, which would be novel for us. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Neverbefore 10,695 Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Its convinced me that hes looking at the wolves formation even more. We have everything in place for it apart from 2 wing backs and a number 10, or even just the number 10 if he considers friend still good enough and Spence ready. Randolph Fry ayala flint Spence wing howson/clayton/McNair friend Number 10 Assombalonga fletcher/braithwaite The number 10 would kinda been in the mould of Moutinho in this case.. not easy to find at this level.

Can't accomodate Clayton, McNair, Wing, Howson, Saville and whatever youngster we have for two midfield spots. Link to post Share on other sites

It has been slow across the board though, not just at Boro. And to be fair, Woodgate has addressed the positions we need improving as the same ones that we have. Next week I think we'll see things start to move. Link to post Share on other sites

That's an interesting one because you'd immidatly think Ben Gibson, but that's hardly a position we need strengthening. Do they have any wide players that we could realistically attract here? Vydra maybe if Braithwaite is about to leave. Link to post Share on other sites
