Thomas Henry.

[sambaDTR]

People were saying we need to get a class striker in before we pay over the odds. Gyokeres was too late now because of his price. Get this lad in at half the price.

 

[sambaDTR]

A few more goals…

 

[Angus]

He certainly looks like he would improve the team with his physicality, mobility and ability to finish.

Have we left it too late?

Are we really in for him or is it just his agent using us as a bargaining tool?

He certainly could be the answer if he has cut it in Serie A.

@Diego, never heard of him, thought on him, info

 

[Teesste]

A few more goals…

Having watched that he is, as others have said, a carbon copy of Mark Viduka.. could be a bit of a championship battering ram in the same way Mitrovic was for Fulham

why not?

I just meant the £7.6 million on a relatively unknown/untried in England player, not that we'd try and sign him based on his ability. Seems a big outlay/risk. We could probably get Riis and Joao for that sort of money who have proven to be pretty handy in the Championship.

Loves a header doesn't he. Like the look of him, but always wary of a youTube video these days!

 

[Nosmo-King]

Doubting Thomas when it comes to wanting to sign for us apparently

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

Blimey I’ve done that…it was a long night

Blimey I’ve done that…it was a long night

Same here. There was an occasional drop of rain, at which the orchestra beat a hasty retreat to protect their instruments. Took five and a half hours to complete Aida…

 

[WeeGord]

He looks a handful and would be delighted with him. That's why I fear it won't happen, typical Boro.

 

[Rofesleg]

@Diego, never heard of him, thought on him, info

We've got his stats in detail, video compilations, height, age, history.
How much more info do you need?

 

[TeaCider]

Italian journalists still adamant he'd prefer to join Verona, so I can't see this happening.

 

[Sheriff_John_Bunnell_ret]

Don't waste time on players who don't want to come here.

In fair Verona, where we lay our scene, From ancient grudge break to new mutiny, Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. ...

Repackaged Andraz Sporar.

Please just get Gayle.

You only need to watch those videos to know he is clearly far, far more talented than Sporar!

Probably, alas, too talented for us...

[Funky_Chicken]

That’s a lot of money on someone who doesn’t know this league at all - might pay off or might be a massive flop. Can we afford to take a gamble like that - probably not
