    But you're just speculating, we've received a bid for a player that wants to leave and have sold one we got a good offer for, it's not like there's a fire sale. You seemed to have based your ideas of our transfer policy on whatever crap talksport are spouting about us.

    Bids mean that we're actively looking to sign people. The benefit of the loan signings is that we just need them to come in and do a job, then they can move on. Evandro cost next to nothing, I'll wager the other signings are little more expensive.

    Ramirez looks like one of the few people, along with Adama, who can drive your team forward. Unpredictable, yeah, but he looks like he's been solid so far. Bojan is the better player, but if he gets a better offer from anywhere else in the PL (which, if he's available, he no doubt will), you're pretty much sodded there.

    Very hit or miss, but with the lack of creativity in the last third were showing, some Boro fans think he,s quality
    He got us promoted, will never forget that, but a player that turns up 1 in 3 games in this league ???
    Bench warmer at Leicester without a doubt, but its what his wife wants

    If I was a top class footballer and I had a wife who didn't work I would tell her where I would be working.

    I believe he wanted jake, but I also feel he knew he needed to sell to have funds to buy. We never hear about European transfers really so wouldn't be surprised if a couple of decent signings are made in next couple of days

    I've never understood this rule
    If you might be getting relegated it may be worth investing to avoid relegation

    Ok, so have we actually sold Snodge to Burnley for £10 million? Don't say check the first page as it says he's gone to Burnley already, last edited 11:19AM by a moderator!
    Where has this talk of £4 million & another £6 million if they stay up come from?
    If we have to sell then surely it's £10 million! FULL ****ING STOP! Why would we potentially sell a player for £4 million, even the Allems aren't that ****ing dense.
    Selling to Middlesbrough would be ****ing stupid of the highest level.
    It all sounds like made up ****e to me.

    Agreed. We should invest first, recoup later.

    Don't sell your better players. Don't sell them to rivals. Don't sell them for less than a better replacement would cost.

    Any player now, if offered even a whiff of a move, will be off, like **** off a stick.

    Plus if you sell before you buy, intended targets might not fancy the move. Leaving us more in the mire than we are at present.

    I wouldn't have sold Livermore, but can live with it. Selling a proven PL goal scorer whose involved in half your teams goals when replacements are like very expensive rocking horse **** is ****ing madness !

    One of the stattos should Work out the points won as a result of Snodger's contributions & declare the date we'd have been relegated without his average performances.

    Club sells 2 players.

    Twitter and forums go into meltdown.

    You couldn't make it up.

    Hull City To Swoop For Fleet-Footed Winger: A Much-Needed Signing From Marco Silva?
    Marco Silva has brought a unique attitude with himself to a struggling Hull City side. Although the Tigers won’t change into a winning team overnight, there has definitely been a change in their approach in the past few weeks, which was missing during Mike Phelan’s stint.

    Their last game against Chelsea was a perfect example of it. It was only after the Blues netted the second goal in the end minutes of the game that they could sense some relief. The Hull players never gave up and deserved a goal, but lacked the quality up front to beat Courtois.

    Silva has brought a similar approach in the club’s transfer market movements. Hull, of course, don’t have overflowing money to spend, but he has got his way around it. And his next transfer target is undoubtedly an ambitious one. According to reports, Hull are planning to make a sensational £10.3million swoop for Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool target Leon Bailey.

    The 19-year-old Jamaican winger plays for Belgian side Genk and is touted to be one of the brightest talents in European football. His impressive displays have attracted a lot of clubs lining up for his signature and the Tigers entering the race although looks bizarre but says a lot about their ambition. They could reportedly complete the deal this month winning the battle against top clubs like Roma, Bayer Leverkusen and Napoli.

    Although the reported fee might not be that luring for either the club or the player, a move to the Premier League could well be possible with the player repeatedly expressing his desire to play in England. Hull will definitely have to up their bid, though, as the player is valued at 20 million pounds and Genk will expect the club to meet it.

    A move to a club not threatened by relegation and playing in Europe would definitely be an ideal choice, but it is difficult to see the youngster getting a regular chance there. Hence, Hull, who are doing really well under Silva, could actually be an ideal platform to start with. Bailey has even stated something similar to it.

    He said, “I’ve always dreamt of the Premier League. But if let’s say, Manchester United can’t guarantee me minutes, I will stay at Genk. The important thing is that in the near future there are a lot of games to come.”

    The 19-year-old has scored six goals in 18 league games for Genk this season so far. However, his most sparkling performances have come in Genk’s Europa League qualifiers and group stage, where he has scored 7 goals and 3 assists in 12 appearances. His ability to perform at the top level is a huge attribute, which Hull will have if they manage to land him. Considering Snodgrass’ future is up in the air, Bailey could be a welcome addition

    More rewriting of history by clueless journalists.
    We are continuing the form shown under Phelan- it hasn't changed.
    Still great team spirit and approach play, still very few goals.
