Is this Hayden Hackney, interesting name, at Boro any good?

Highly rated.  We were linked last summer and his highlights reel is/was exceptional.

Have we been linked again?

Don't know but obviously we are in the market for a midfielder so he might be one. Get Ramsey back for whatever purgatory he is in and pretend last summer never happened (Guessand/Sancho/Elliot).

No, Fulham.

Scored against Fulham at the weekend. They must be imitating our transfer strategy of old.

I watch a lot of championship football and there are some very good players at that level.  Hayden Hackney is considered the divisions best player.  Great dribbler and terrific passer.  A real natural talent.

We were meant to be scouting him strongly when Unai decided it was some winger that hadn't scored many and was a bit in and out with form after a cheap move from Man City was the Boro player we wanted.

Seen Hackney a few times since. We could do a lot worse than adding him.

I’d be entirely in favour of having our pants pulled down by boro again if it went the same way as last time.

Spent time at the Albion though didn’t he ? so knows the region
That could be a good thing or a bad thing.
He rented a room in an HMO on Benefit Street whilst there.

Gallagher probably has more about him all-round than Onana

Does he balls.

On reflection, you're right. He's shite and Amadou rules.

Onana over Midtablegher every day.  Only thing against Onana right now is fitness - if he can stay fit he’s worth the £50m we paid.
