Getting Ramsey fit for next season is important because the prospect of JJ and Rogers playing in the same side is very exciting.

Where would you fit both of them in though?

I think Rodgers will be better in the centre - no 8/10 combo. Ramsey better wide left.

Nice headache to have.

I think Rogers best position could well end up being in the 'number 10' role, which would allow Ramsey to come back in on the left.

MoTM for me yesterday, along with Ollie Watkins.  He's very impressive indeed.

Certainly is, and I think that's the point about our squad, it's developing nicely.

Given the injuries we've had, we've coped really, really well.

There's the prospect of a long season ahead next term

Part of Mr Emery’s plan was to give ManUre enough points to ensure Ten Hag stayed in post..

Mr Emery plays 4D chess.

a lot of boro fans were saying this move was too early for him, and he should wait for the summer.

clearly given he's from the west midlands (and the players and staff poached from west brom in recent years) has been a massive help for him to settle as quickly as he has.

Generally there is a lack insight and football acumen and have either a biassed opinion or a rudimentary comprehension of player judgement and that's a typical football fan. It seems that the Boro supporters are judging him incorrectly.

Additionally, many of these fans haven't played the game very much, if at all, and that can occasionally be an issue.
Also , because drinking is so common in the Northeast, people's judgement is also tainted when making judgements need a clear head.
Everyone has the right to their own opinions  yet these views about how good a player is are frequently inaccurate by your typical football fan.
It's not just anyone who can be a scout.
So "a lot of boro fans were saying this move was too early for him, and he should wait for the summer" clearly have no idea but take your point.

I can confirm everybody I have ever met from the NE has been a Snake Bite fuelled lunatic who has never played football in their life.

Rogers in the Villa team

Ramsey sold. I fear that his body isn't up to it

Well it is only his foot. We will have to see if the several months of healing has the desired effect rather then the several weeks it initially had.

I think his first PL start was only last month and he is already first choice, unbelievable. Shamefully I'd put him down as an FFP-friendly utility signing, now I'm wondering how soon he might make the England squad. The fact that he is a local lad too and seems to have the passion that goes with that just makes it even better.

It's just that when people claim that a player isn't good enough, what are they basing their opinion on? therefore they're wrong, and we've seen this happen previously, therefore it must be a case of supporters not wanting to gain football knowledge and instead providing biassed views.

I believe Rodgers is considerably better suited to Emery's football techniques than Carrick's basic skills.
The man who is Boro's top scorer irritates them because he left, they now seem to imply he isn't good and won't make it.
He's doing incredibly well and Rodgers will only get better in our team.

It's the case that he's in the team because Luiz is suspended and there are injuries, but Boro fans should either focus on themselves or show some respect to Rodgers.

I wish you would show some respect for Rogers by spelling his surname correctly even once.
