I like the way we seem to be setting up a side full of players who can play anywhere. RB: Carr, Geremi, Solano, Taylor CB: Roz, Taylor, Cacapa, Drago/Other LB: Enrique, Drago, N'Zogbia RM: Geremi, Solano, Milner, Dyer, Smith CM: Butt, Emre, Barton, Smith, Geremi, Dyer, Solano (been suggested) LM: N'Zogbia, Duff, Luque, Enrique CF: Martins, Viduka, Owen, Ameobi, Smith, Carroll, Luque, Dyer I've never known us have this much cover all over the shop. As you we're still a quality RB and that fourth CB short, other than that we look solid.

I still think we need someone who can play CB and LB, so does Sam, which is why he's gone for Heinze, Drago and Silvestre. Be surprised if we don't try and find another one.

Hope Sam's got someone else lined up, I reckon he probably has.

Bollocks.

Posted at exactly the same time, great minds and all that.

Viduka, Solano, Owen.

More quality journalism. 6mill euro's, 4million pounds. I'm not sure if that is quite the correct exchange rate, but its close. Aye I realise that now. The rest of the article's still a disaster like.

It's simply another catastrophic piece of writing. He's on about Drago with the "very experienced central defender" and then talks about Enrique in the next sentence.

Look at that. I'd expect better grammar and sentence structure from a 7 year old.

More quality journalism.

Dragutinovic has been given the number 3 shirt by Sevilla, changed from 19.

Boro fans, the only people in the Country that wish Sven was still in charge of England. You must be joking, they hated McClaren.

I assume Dyer is no longer with the mother of his kids? If he is, then the family stuff is absolute shite. I'm damn sure Ipswich isn't such a nice place that a multi-millionaire can't tempt his missus away.

Only real issue I have is with his kicking. I think he's a Premiership standard keeper other than that.

More to do with the fact the mental referee gave any sort of contact as a free kick.

Shay wasn't limping and I hadn't even noticed he had a problem. I'm confident he'll be back, if not for Bolton, then certainly for Villa. That's that jinxed.

The umbrella formation, untried if nothing else.

That'd be extremely one paced and leave Vids very isolated. Hope we don't play that. We don't actually have that much pace in the side at the moment, N'Zogbia and Martins are really the only two we can rely on for pace, discounting Owen and Dyer for obvious reasons.

Perhaps, although Solano has yet to appear at RB under Allardyce while Carr has appeared there for every game. If Sam had real plans to play Nobby there in the near future he'd surely have given him some time there in pre-season. Solano's played there a couple of times I think, not started though. He definitely played a half at Hartlepool at RB.

He wears 'J. Enrique', did for Villarreal anyway.

I would think he'll keep it as long as he pays for it and keeps his mouth shut. All the Shepherd Offshore and Cameron Hall advertising boards that went round the East Stand have gone.

There was a bloke at the match with 'Barton 666' on the back of his shirt.

Not keen on the huge digital advertising board we've got now.
