Summer 2016: Transfer rumours and suggestions

[mr underhill]

we have won 1 in 18, when was the last time we put anything other than a losing run together?

We need 10 from the next 5 to get into the top half.  Then a run of 23/24 from the next 30 to be in top 2 contention. Essentially 2 points a game is promotion form.  9 from the next 3 gets us back up there but today was a huge blow.

[Tuscans]

Being tweeted about, Albert Adomah from Boro.

Agreed the next 14 days gives us the chance to get in some pace, creativity and finishing ability. RDM then needs to spend the time, with those not on international duty, getting some steel and character into the squad. We are wilting far too often in second halves of games.

The key for me, particularly in midfield, is for Jedinak to be given complete responsibility for its organisation. If it was left to Westwood, which it seems to be at the moment, we'll be forever soft touches.

Trouble is I'm not sure how you can coach steel and character.

Well supposedly Elphick, Jedi and McCormack have it. So it's time they started disseminating it to the rest of the squad.

A midfield with Bacuna, Westwood and Grealish being 3 of the 4 is too light physically and mentally when the going gets tough.

Newcastle close to signing Alan Judge and Darryl Murphy? They are going to have a hell of a team too, but don't think they have as solid a side as we do.

They are both very very average players

[SoccerHQ]

Adomah would be a great signing for us....pacey, unpredictable and can actually get on the pitch unlike Adama.

Surprised Boro don't think he's good enough for the premier league.

[Damo70]

Don't know too much about Judge but I agree that Murphy is average and that Adomah would be a very good signing.

Daryl Murphy is fucking shit.

[johnny from donny]

Daryl Murphy is fucking shit.

Okay ,a bit strange, but we don't need to know about his personal life.

Oh you were talking about his ability, yes you're right.

Just show how much football is about opinions. I went long with the opinion of brontebilly and agreed he was average. You two both think he is shit. Chris Iwelumo on The Championship has just called him "a fantastic player"!

[LukeJames]

Chris Iwelumo is shit aswell to be fair.
