Randy Sandwich 209 Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 1 hour ago, Will said: Is it desperate to sell a player who doesn’t fit the way we want to play? Do ambitious clubs keep players who don’t fit just for the sake of it? Got to agree, every club has its own ambitions and I would hazard a guess that many are different. Woodgate has his and apparently they match the clubs, he wants to sell Flint to make way for his type of player and we good a bloody good deal in my opinion. I don't think we are desperate at all, everyone has been saying how bad Flint has been, most agree that we'd take 3 mil for him and we get 4.2mil and some cash for Woody to invest in his squad. Good deal, let's see who Woody brings in. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

The sale smacks both of desperation and lack of ambition. Oh come on.. It was a signing that didn't work and player who will likely struggle with passing the ball out. It's a good deal Link to post Share on other sites

Just look how much he struggled against Hartlepool with the ball Link to post Share on other sites
ManBearPig 1,853 Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Not a rumour as such, but I follow various football coaches on Twitter from when I did my UEFA B and he, (Pedro Mendonça) featured a recent Boro one called "4 keepers". I'll post the picture below, but interesting that there was no Darren Randolph... are they planning for life without him? Link to post Share on other sites

He’s injured 1-2 weeks should be okay for Luton if he’s still here Link to post Share on other sites

That said if the reported bid of £12m from Villa is legitimate then yes, we are probably planning for life without him. Edited July 19, 2019 by TAPOUT Add to post Link to post Share on other sites

nunthorpered 1,922 Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Some news on Saville. Not thrilling i know, but club can't get him out. Clubs not willing to pay what we want for him. Might be better off just keeping hold Link to post Share on other sites
OldManGravz 1,350 Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 2 hours ago, PsychFur said: And what style of play is that then? JW and the club talk a lot about the the way they would like to play but that isn't reflected in the current squad quality and depth. We're abut to start the season with 1 right back (actually a midfielder), 3 centre backs and 1 left back. That's it, 5 defenders for 4 positions. But we have came out and said we want to blood more youth. You cant blood youth with 2 players for every position, they'll never get a chance 1 Link to post Share on other sites
