He's an attacking midfielder - he'll play AMC (spelling the oft injured Cantwell) or AML / AMR (Cantwell can play AML too). I'm sure he can play CM too, but I don't think that's what we're buying him for.

So if Toth plays 90 mins every game he'll still fall short?

He's quicker than Hedges and has already scored a goal. Hedges wouldn't have been in the frame for that Everton tap in.

This Swedish lad, if we get him sorted, seems a bit of a character too - like Miller. I wouldn't be too worried about losing voices in the squad if he comes in too. Seems a bit of a Savage dickhead (love him when he plays for you, hate him when he plays against you).

Possibly, yes. I like to watch players play before I judge them though.

I hope he can get back quicker too - Brittain used to be nowhere in the frame if a quick team countered us.

It makes my heart sink when you see little kids, probably third or fourth generation immigrants, in India or Pakistan shirts in the crowd.

Horrible way to lose - complete bottle job. Pope has to be dropped now. Bethell too - he's basically played no First Class cricket. Test decided by an injury to one of our bowlers - in a series where they were allowed a specialist WK as a sub fielder (and the WK batsman was allowed to bat).

Have we? Who's to say they don't see the Swedish lad playing further forward?

Eustace read from a script in his interviews. Had a message he wanted to get across and wasn't really giving you anything else. I bet he's a completely different character behind closed doors.

Think it's more down to us not having the finances to green light our moves without Boro paying us for Brittain. We're in a chain.

Brave kid. Love that young English players are brave enough to go abroad now.

Mate I'd love to play Derby with Beck playing LW. He's not got the close control for it.

We can't possibly need to sell. So much has walked out of the door.

Hackney turned down Ipswich so Boro might not have them money for the transfer any more.

Why not? Perhaps they think the two new Midfielders can help cover AMC too (seems the case for the Swedish lad). Or even do 20 minutes out wide.

Hackney has said no to Ipswich so Boro might not have the funds...

Game has changed since Kargbo, Gueye and Alebiosu have come on. Look much better without Ohashi leading the line and Montgomery getting roasted.

Feel sorry for DeNeve getting lumped in with Hedges already by some.

Assume he's just not fully fit yet and they daren't risk him with Brittain leaving and Miller being injured.

Ohashi fluffing two gilt edged chances and Montgomery being roasted for both their goals the difference between the sides today. How anyone can watch Hedges continually lose the ball and duck out of challenges and not think he needs replacing is beyond me.

So it seems.

He doesn't have the pace to run in behind against Championship CBs. He's a Solskjaer - good finisher, good movement and composed. Ferguson didn't start him much either.

I'd sell him for a 6'+ do it all CF with pace - as with our wide players our #9 is going to have to create all his own goals. As that's not going to happen I'd hold onto him.

I don't think we had one for Qatar SC either. Obviously someone had scrambled to dust one off from storage for Elche.
