Thank christ we got rid of Joe Lumley and have a decent keeper between the sticks. Genuinely should get us a fair few points by himself this season. Once Muniz and Armstrong come that should be the goalscoring problem fixed, with Jones and Giles terrorising defences down both wings.

Now watch us fail to get any strikers in and rely on Chuba Akpom and Duncan Watmore until January.

also big lol if we actually start the season with Akpom, Watmore and Coburn as our strikers.

I've just been informed that Marcus Forss to us is all but done

I'll take that point.

We need more midfielders and a competent striker though.

When he got sold a sizable portion of online Boro fans were lamenting the sale and denouncing Wilder for turning his back on the academy system.

He wasn't sold strictly for football reasons

What did he do, op?

Preferred shagging local lasses behind his long term partner's back and getting pally with Aaron Connolly when he came back from Hibs after playing one game on loan for them, awful attitude on him and thought he deserved to be starting for Boro (without actually showing anything to prove it in training.)

Wilder took one look at him and was like "nope"

Nowhere to go but up.

Hoping we get another CM and a left footed CB in soon. This squad should also be doing better than 3 points in 5 games with its current composition, though.

Think we're signing Matt Clarke from Brighton (which will piss Derby fans off no end)

John Percy reporting on Matt Clarke, so that's pretty much done :)

Strand Larsen on deadline day I reckon

Wouldn't mind Ampadu on a permanent if we could swoop in and steal him from Spezia

Linked with Ethan Ampadu now who would be perfect for us, I mentioned a few days ago i'd like us to go in for him

My workmate supports the 'pools and was absolutely fuming yesterday.

Boro with our first win of the season, Swansea very well could end up being the worst team we'll play at the Riverside this season. Just awful. How Piroe got 24 goals for them last season is unfathomable.

probably see forss or watmore come on with him second half tbh, mcgree pretty invisible

Watmore most likely, best used as an impact sub.

Not really sure what Forss brings to the team, every time I've seen him he's been anonymous

Dijksteel on for Howson means McNair going into midfield which should give us a bit more bite at least

I caught the first half of the Boro match. Absolutely shocking, our midfield was a shambles, the defense looked disinterested in making challenges, and Muniz was on an island. At least they seem to have made it less embarassing in the second half I guess.

Literally only scored two goals because Cardiff kindly decided to stop pressing us.
