But the fact he's been about so much doesn't encourage me. Same could be said for Simpson tbh. I'm quite happy with this, i also don't know if he'll be good for the Prem, but he's good enough for the CCC, and a RM is definately what we need.

johnnypd Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 good signing and just what we need for this division, a bit of flair and width. credit to hughton etc for this one. not a great player in the premiership but we're not there yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Didn't see this coming. We'll have a much better balance on the wings now and better service. Just have to figure out who to play in the middle out of Smith, Guthrie and Nolan. Good signing, he'll be decent for a season to keep us up in the Prem too (if we go up).

Teasy Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 happy that we've signed him ...a decent signing definitely but lets not go overboard (though it is understandable). Disagree, one of the positions we needed to fill most was right wing and we've signed one of the best wingers in the division. That makes it a very good signing IMO. To be honest he'd have been a decent signing last January. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 This is just awesome. Very very encouraging stuff. I remember saying on here a while back that he is a better winger (note: WINGER) than James Milner. Hopefully he can now prove me right. Have bumped into him around my way a few times and he seems a pretty low key guy. Was very young when he left Palace for Spurs, and he started off very brightly there before getting a long term injury, which then gave Lennon his chance. Tottenham were pretty harsh with him (see other youngsters i.e. Boateng, Kaboul etc) when he returned and didn't really give him a chance. He was pretty down about it and it's taken him a while to get back on his feet now. Very exciting player, especially when he is happy and confident. I think he will really like playing for Hughton, who is a calm sort and who is very loyal to his players. He'll be great for the team imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Thin we will see more of a 4-5-1 now. Particularly away from home. Jonas and Routledge out wide. Smith and Guthrie central. Nolan just behind Shola. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam Liam Liam O Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Can't wait for the first time he races from our half, up the wing like a rocket & then has to wait for Shola to get there before he crosses it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest johnson293 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Fron the Boro forum - "Nice to see how the Jawdees have kept their interest in him quiet and then completed the deal for him very quickly, unlike us who have been linked with him for weeks and done sweet fa." Makes a change. Love it! Aye, pissing the smogs off is an added bonus like. Reminds me of the Rob Lee signing, when Lennie Lawrence was so confident of getting him (Being his former manager at Charlton), then KK got him with the famous 'Toon closer to London than Boro' line.

Stifler Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Where will this leave R. Taylor though, there is nowhere in defense for him now assuming Simpson is the RB, Routledge on the right or midfield, pretty much makes him a sub unless he can play through the middle.

Ronaldo Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 R Taylor is decent back-up for both wing positions and the RB slot, no more than that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't he pretty much a sub anyway? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
