    Boro are paying up to £10m for Bamford, that's a lot for a striker who's never scored a Premier League goal.

    Eh?
    Sell a proven player to a rival team. Buy an untested foreign player? No time to see if it works?
    Doesn't fill me with belief when you are fighting to stay Up.

    Why do you think Pulis, the stay up expert wants someone who has PL experience!

    Talk of these wonderful "contacts" is just a hopeful way of saying we have a manager who knows the Greek league a bit. He hasn't got magic back room staff.

    I'd be very worried indeed if we sold our better players to fund guesses. Squad players maybe, or one player who we could replace, but not our most versatile midfielder who is first choice or near as damn it.

    Now is the time to hold what you have and add. Sell only if you are sure you have to (contract v price issues ) or are positive you are benefitting and not helping a rival

    Selling Jake is to me is sending the wrong message to the rest of the dressing room, and could possibly damage team spirit

    Maybe livermores not silvas type of player, doesnt fit his style or system
    I dont think jakes pulled trees up this season
    Talk of his contacts mean hes good friends with jorge mendes whos probably the most prominent agent out there who will have a massive web if contacts, which silva can tap into so im not buying into the he knows the greek league abit.

    Id be very worried if we kinda accepted the squad we had now, didnt want to improve and take risks, and we dont progress and stagnate

    I repeat in silva i trust

    We have the no we cant sell jakey camp
    And the ones who trust silva

    <laugh> people saying we have soooo much cover for jake in centre mid deary me.

    Clucas is doing ok, Mason has one good game, Huddlestone is back on form but this might not last, Henriksen is crocked and lightweight, meylers a grafter but not as good as Jake.

    Jake should actually be in our starting 11 not being shipped off for some unknown quanity, or some championship midfielder that we have to pay 10 million for.

    He's one of our star players ffs.

    I don't know where this story about him being mates with Mendes originated from, but he's even not his agent.

    I'm pretty sure that rumour is complete bollocks.

    Not having a go but what makes you think he wants to sell Livermore? We have had an unsolicited bid from a rival.

    If he wants to keep him does that mean you don't trust Silva?

    Your making a few jumps in those statements IMHO.

    FWIW I agree with Silva's statements that we shouldn't be selling anyone only bringing in more quality and more cover. The squads paper thin.

    Silva maybe thinks the Brazilian is a straight swap?

    You mean he isn't the next Jose and doesn't have magic powers and a Rolodex to die for?

    Shock.

    Some people on here may be upset...

    Theres some real competition for stupid posts today.
    Livermore has been our best CM by far and probably our best CB.
    It would be a disaster to lose him.
    If Silva doesnt rate him, he's wrong. no evidence of this though.

    Mendes was reported to have recommended him for the Wolves job. I think everything after that was just twitterspere adding one and one to get 5.

    I think people are getting carried away
    We are still favourites to go down and rightly so, still a momentous task to keep us up
    Don't agree with selling livermore for less than £15m

    There more suggestions and questions than statements
    Just not totally against the idea of selling livermore if it improves the squad balance and quality

    He's probably been our most consistent player this season. In a positive sense. Others have obviously also been consistent but on tuther end of the scale.
