This is intended with no malice whatsoever.

Good riddance to the footballing freak !
Football is a team game, and this 'footballer' has no comprehension of playing for a team.

If he does go to Boro, that would show how badly he wants out

I think it's a huge shame.  But as long as there is a huge sell on percentage.  He will be a star one day.

As things are yes not the one for us. If someone else can't turn him into a first team player so be it.

They can have him, best of luck getting him to;
a) stay fit
b) chase back
c) pass to a team mate

You have to build your side round him and you have to allow for the fact he won't defend or help out his team mates at all, but part of me feels like he'll be great to watch if he's given 30 games (and is actually fit). He'll be a pain in the fucking arse, but he'll light games up for them. Is he too much of a luxury for a side who will be fighting relegation? Absolutely. But if their boss shows enough faith he'll be good to watch.
I don't think we can carry him. I hope we get a good fee and I'll be curious to see how he does. Either he takes it by storm there or he disappears off the footballing map completely within 2 years. I doubt there's a middle ground with this lad.

It's a big shame really. I just hope we negotiate some good clauses on future development.

Whether it's a straight swap for Adomah or a fee involved, put in a sell on clause. Hopefully, it's a swap.

To be a regular PL player or just a player that maximizes his potential he'll have to radically improve his overall contribution. Superb going forward but he's so far been a liability when he doesn't have the ball. Boro will be one of the teams towards the bottom of the PL this season and they will need all hands to the pump. They won't able to afford passengers.

We should all be distraught at a player of his talent joining an inferior team, that we are not speaks volumes.
