    The positions I would have filled in priority order:
    Sign consistent left back (done)
    Right midfield /wing with goals (to do )
    Strengthen the 6 (to do)
    Strengthen keeper (probably done)
    Replace Jobe (done)
    Pacy centre back and emerging centre back (to do)
    Different profile of striker (to do)
    Alternative wide forward (strongly linked)
    Strengthen options for right back (to do)
    Happy with this with us still being in June

    I like Cirkin but too flaky for the big league on his own.

    I had assumed Cirkin would be first choice but now I think about it, Atletico Madrid’s left back is just a level up isn’t it?

    should be good competition between them either way

    This is what I meant by two good players in every position, it's important

    Looks like we are paying Habib a good 70k per week.

    Announce a right winger.

    Shame, Rocky 3 would be out later in the year if it was. I heard he fights a dinosaur.

    Love that signing. Free transfer, experience and obvious quality. Cirkin has potential to step imo but this is perfect competition at left back.

    He would have had loads of options this lad, another coup.

    Not suggesting he should be first choice there but worth pointing out he’s also a rapid left sided centre back

    Our new model. Redirect aircraft. Land them at Teesside. Show them the chemical works then take them to Seaburn beach on a sunny day and wave the contract.

    They have put duracell in the magic carpet this time.

    Cant knock a left back from Atleti mind. One of the best defensive teams you can watch.

    I wonder what Cirkin does? He will want to play I think. Doesnt strike me as a lad who will be keen to be a squad player. If he wants to move on he will have plenty of options. Despite all the excitement of new players, I have no doubt our existing lads have still got plenty of eyes on them.

    Notice the post on Twitter mentions he will be announced with a presser (Diarra).

    Hope Kyril and Speakman are sitting there and out walks Donald and Methven who announces "it was me Mackems".

    Just so much more in keeping with the smart way we’ve been running the club. We should only be lying relatively big fees for older pros if they are absolute stick-on starters and transformational upgrades. Doing this sort of deal frees us from the perils of failure. If he’s ****e we’ve not hamstrung ourselves. Meanwhile we’ve got a credible hedge against cirkin getting injured or failing to make the grade.

    Suspect we could leave fullback areas as they are now. Just need that game changing centre half.

    Moved back northeast December so haven’t managed a season ticket for some time. Looking at our business, I’m so happy I did it.
