New summer transfer thread

Money and time are running out for Middlesbrough though. They have an alternative of putting a narrower 3 out across the middle with Tuncay behind 2 strikers, but this wouldn't leave Downing the wing.

Boro have done very well out of loan signings in the past (Woodgate mendieta etc) so could bring in a right-sided midfielder.

This gives the option of playing a 4-4-2 with Downing and another winger with Tuncay in midfield instead or Arca or a 4-5-1 with Tuncay in the centre and several other options like a 4-2-3-1 with 2 defensive midfielders and Tuncay, Downing, Aliadiere/new midfielder beind Yakubu or Mido.

The right is the only place we are lacking and would unlock masses of options

Absolutely, but who is out there for you to loan?

Chris Eagles would be a good one if you were to get him.

Wouldn't mind us trying to get Guily but not gonna happen :P

Someone with pace and the eye for a pass or the ability to get on the end of downings wayward crosses

edit :didnt see hed already gone :P

Definatly a big name that aint fitting in like mendieta jsut fi we get a season out of him it would be great

Still think Elmander would be a good buy for the premiership

Eagles would be a superb signing on loan. Really impressed me whenever I've seen him. I'm assuming he's rated at Man Utd as well or else they would have looked to move him on this summer.

From what I've heard thou is we are still keeping tabs on that Karadeniz. Seemed we were close to agreeing a fee then whispers that other clubs were interested saw his price bumped up so talks broke down.

I think Southgate has done pretty well so far in the window considering the inflated prices. However, we do need a forward and unfortunately I can't see us getting another great deal here like we have done with Young and Tuncay. At least if we do sign Mido we've only paid over the odds for one player. Also he'll retain his transfer value pretty well due to his age if we do decide to sell him later on.
 
Mourinho enthralled with his latest signing.

We've got plenty of young guns tho so i dont think we should take another youngster on loan
 
I'm so angry we just signed Mido. He looks and acts like a pimp, a gangster. We now have entirely too many strikers, yet still need a right winger; Tuncay Sanli looks good as a winger but i'd rather have him being a striker.

I think he'll do really well was awesome at Tottenham last season. He just needs to bulk up a bit as he lost a lot of weight over the summer

I think Eagles will be somewhat more useful than any youngsters boro have right now, from little glimpses of him he looks VERY good. He just needs more first team action

Yep. Franks is definitely one for the future but he's only 16/17 so still a long way off. Owens is another but again I think he's got another year before he's ready. So Eagles on loan for the season would be a good move for us.
 
Looks like King is available for the princely sum of 60 mil :D.

'If we get into the Premier League, we get £60million, so unless someone's got £60m, Marlon isn't going anywhere. Simple as that. Hameur Bouazza was a different kettle of fish, as was Ashley Young. Marlon King stays.

Looks like Solano is available for any London club too as he wants to move closer to his kids.
