He's looking quality for Boro this season, I've just watched another top display off him tonight against Brum. He looked abit out his depth in the Prem for us but he's abit older now. I'd certainly have him back the way our midfields performing !
I dont think he did look out of his depth here. He's miles better than Colback in every way and id have him.in ahead of Larsson too in centre midfield id say he's just as good as Gardner too.
I liked the lad and was surprised when we sold him but, he is playing well in a team that is doing well if he came back to us as we are (struggling) then he would be the immediate scapegoat and no doubt he has geordie roots for some to latch onto as well. As for having him back I would say no we have the same type of player at the club who are arguably the same as him so there would be no improvement. We need to get that elusive CM playmaker in and we need to be looking at a 10mil plus price tag for a good one.
