mendieta420 988 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 So, is there any reports on bids on any of our players other than Shotton? It looks like everyone is into one of those meltdown spirals again, over nothing 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Every pre season game (and Luton) he’s made a huge error and looked uncomfortable in Woody’s system for 90 minutes. Will be scenes if sold. Link to post Share on other sites
Boro 86 511 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 (edited) Surely the points on Britt are all valid - He scores goals - He doesn't score enough goals - He needs service - He may or may not be suited to a pressing game - He cost a lot and is paid a lot - We could possibly get as good for less money - We could easily spend a lot on a player who fails - If he stays we are guaranteed at least 15 goals from him - If he scores 20+ this season he could go for £25m+ after that On balance I prefer for him to stay but I have to say that if he goes it is not the season ender some are claiming. At this late stage in the window though it just seems daft to sell him unless we have something else lined up that will pretty much guarantee his 15 goals at least 1 Link to post Share on other sites

When we're trying to bring down the wage bill, yeah that makes sense. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

It looks like everyone is into one of those meltdown spirals again, over nothing Just classic meltdown. Some of it is justified as we don't seem to adress the lack of winger/creativity again with the clock ticking down. I don't think we are selling anyone important ie. Britt, Fry or Randolph. I wouldn't mind any midfielder bar Wing leave if it meant funds for a decent winger. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

DevKWat 2,365 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Graeme Bailey tweeting that Success at Watford has championship interest if they sign a winger, so that’s probably who was being talked about earlier. Would be a great signing 1 Link to post Share on other sites
