    Boro have already lost two key players to injury and they've barely played 20mins.

    Sound familiar?

    Chelsea really are a bunch of insufferable little ****s.

    £222m spent on Enzo and Caicedo alone and they can’t control a game against a mid table Championship side. What do these guys do in training?

    Pochettino really isn’t doing a particularly great job over there (much to your delight I’m sure).

    I think they will, to be honest, but even/when they reach the final, I just can't see this team getting the better of (based on likelihood) Liverpool in the final. They're also 10th in the league and 12 points off a CL spot - which should be under more scrutiny considering their outlay and the quality they have.

    Maybe he'll benefit from the Chelsea owner realising that giving a manager half a billion to spend and sacking them within a few months ain't a good idea!

    Worth noting that Hayden Hackney, who scored for Boro, is a player we're reportedly watching

    Jordan Henderson reportedly joining Ajax

    Presumably he's going to get PTSD when somebody tells him about a woman getting stoned the night before, only to realise she merely had a hash brownie

    He is doing exactly the job for Spurs we would expect him to.

    And that Boro's keeper, Tom Glover, was on our books for several years.
    Spent a number of them on loan, admittedly. Still counts as HG/CG, IIRC.

    Boro are having a mixed season, but Carrick did well to turn them round.
    They had a really rough start, so to be in touching distance of the play-offs is great.
    There was some talk of him getting the boot, but I don't think that Gibson considered it.

    I heard he'd have a multi-million dollar tax bill if he terminated his contract within 2 years.
    Hope he read the small print ..<laugh>

    Think that was if he returned to work in the UK (though may just be resident for a certain number of days) we would tax him on his Saudi earnings .

    I believe he's just required to use a silly accent in interviews.

    Resident in the UK for 90+ days in one tax year,
    all earnings are liable to UK tax (after reciprocal tax
    agreements with overseas nation being applied)
    for that year.
