Sounded confident on Hughes and less so on Conway imo. Though 2 strikers do seem close to joining. I think it could be a busy week next week
I'm not sure Giles will be here at end of August.. so we look very light in that area... if Seri goes spend the money on someone.?...
He looked fuming when brought off. Can’t blame him as Jacob should’ve been hooked off then. That being said, Giles wasn’t great either and his body language and attitude can be poor at times. Really bizarre transfer.
Acun drove himself out with Tan in the passenger seat at the end of the game. Looked fairly serious and didn’t have his girlfriend/family with him so would guess they’re off to get some business done
Not a fan of Giles's attitude personally. Quick to wave his arms at his team mates and manager, never really looks like he can be bothered and just doesn't play with much intensity.
Yeah I was saying the same at the game today. I cant quite put my finger on it but there's something about him that looks off. Maybe its just the way he is as he's looked the same since January. Very interesting comments by Tan though earlier today, saying that Giles needs to be respectful of the club.. Also Baz is saying something definitely is/was happening regarding Giles and 'Boro. Whatever it was seems to be still lingering.
I keep thinking Jacob might be better moving into midfield i know players do change their positions now and then and i think he should do that maybe go on loan to see how he gets on doing it he seems to have more confidence further up the field.
He needs a loan to a lower league club. Maybe give Grant a ring at Doncaster and see if they’ll take him for a season.
That would be a really good move for him as he knows Grant but i still think he would improve and benefit more moving into midfield role.
Perhaps Giles will still move to LB once Jarvis and Millar have settled and today Tim just didn't want to disrupt a back 4 that up until that point hadn't conceded. Boro have spent a decent chunk and if they add Conway for 5m on top it's hard to see them bidding anywhere close to what you would hope to get back for Giles.
