Wing Wizard Windy Miller Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 (edited) 6 hours ago, Crimpshrine said: That contradicts what Mowbray said at the supporters consultation meeting. He said Boro were constantly on the phone asking if Rovers are still interested in Chapman. Mowbray then went on to point out that Chapman currently wouldn't get in our team and his contract is up in the summer so why would he make any commitment at this point in time. This may not have made the radio edit. Then why did he try to get him in at the death of the transfer window? I see he is on the bench again today for Boro.

Odd Good left backs aren't all that common in truth. I feel like we've spent most of our time whilst I've been a fan (from about 93 onwards) lamenting our lack of a good left back. Off my head, the only good ones we've had in that time have been Le Saux, Givet, and Warnock. England haven't exactly been blessed with them either, apart from Ashley Cole. It can be a tough position to fill well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a player in there, and it's handy to have that string in our bow in the squad, but his impact has been highly sporadic. May go on to be top class, but don't see much reason for us to wait around for that. It would also behove the player to move elsewhere. Doesn't fit our approach, at least not while we have Dack.

Tony Mowbray told me on Thursday that he had been given permission to play by Chelsea. Will check with him after the game' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time and again he would pick the ball up, beat a player or two and then give the ball away lazily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wing Wizard Windy Miller Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Rodwell injured again. Not a player we should be offering any further terms to. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns out Bayern have offered 30 million and Chelsea are holding out for 40 even with not much left on his contract. He's a great player. I was being optimistic worh our chances of getting a loan in for him. He destroyed our left back at leyland earlier in the season and has made the step up with ease Edited January 5, 2019 by Oldgregg86 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wing Wizard Windy Miller Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Chapman came of bench so cup tied. Probably nothing happening with that one this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjt Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 I would like us to sign Marquis from Doncaster, keep Travis and play him, sign a decent centre back and play Lenehan as defensive mid. (and sign Reed permanently). Probably wrong on every point. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisPriceBaldSpot Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Tom Eaves looks like a quality striker. A young Peter Crouch with strength. Has a a terrific touch, is strong on the ball and is about 8ft 6. Him and Dacky could make beautiful music upfront for us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Done well the last couple of seasons but prior to that he has never pulled up any trees, 4 in 40 for Yeovil before joining the Gils. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
