Reminds me of mitrovic, bring him in!

Reminds me of Olivier Giroud

Reminds me of Olivier Giroud

He looks a player. Hopefully we manage to sign him. Would surely put to bed any Gyokores talk

 

[Teesste]

I seem to remember us being equally excited this time last year about a certain Slovenian …. Fortunately he was only on loan for a season!

 

[Anton_Berg]

Linked on OneBoro. Looks a proper player!

I haven't seen 'keepers like that since the Alves compilation.

 

[Diego]

He’s apparently more keen to stay in Italy and sign for Verona than he is to sign for us but his club are more happy with our offer as it’s more

Repackaged Andraz Sporar.

Please just get Gayle.

 

[Colin Warnek]

Doesn't seem like a Wilder buy.

 

[Jonny Ingbar]

If we've bid upwards of €9m then you can be sure that this is a pretty big signing for us.

I’m off to the Opera in Verona in August - I’ll have a word

We've bid £7.6 million according to Sky

Might take some convincing to come and live in Boro over Verona

 

[BoroMart]

Not a chance surely?

why not?

I always worried that he'd never really done it outside of slovenia. He'd failed to make much impression in Switzerland, Bundesliga 2 and Portugal.

This Henry, has done well in Serie A last year, and has a stella record in Belgium which is maybe deeper than Portugal without having the top sides like Sporting. Of course Sporar was at Sporting and didn't bang them in.

This lad looks better suited and better quality to me, but it all depends how they can adapt. It's the 5th best league in world football quality-wise. Some people struggle to make it

Difficult to know what to make of it. I mean some clear strengths and clear weaknesses, but you have to think a) it's in Serie A, a higher standard than the championship, b) he was in a poor side. All in all looks a slightly below average Serie A striker, which should be excellent in the championship

 

[Middlesbrough123]

Yeah , I tend to focus more on the obvious in goals scored and £8m is still a fare bit for buying potential and 27 isn’t young for potential but we probably need to take a calculated risk ok someone .

 

[Scrug]

I hope he isn’t a Wilder target, his track record of buying strikers is appalling.

Take a big fat cushion. Those walls are very tough on the old posterior.

Cant see this happening, why would we let it be known we are interested.Hope I’m wrong .
Decent links coming out, Muniz / Parrott / Armstrong / Simms / Undav / good front 5 that for me, young and talented, I prefer all of them to Gayle with his wages, but if we go for Gayle, I would back him . Dont want Rhodes, didn't want McGoldrick.

Saw that, the club obviously see him a a player that's worth such a big fee and one that's on another level to what we've seen the lady season or two.
