    Regarding Gilbert. He’s played very few matches for a 23 year old. Seems like a real punt to me.

    Some clips of him here when he joined Boro. https://youtu.be/DOfzojA9kvM?si=uLt6ZY-uH9I-Gp_x

    FFS stick to the thread title. I have just wasted five minutes of my limited future life, scrolling through garbage.

    Mpanzu was left out of the Luton squad yesterday. I’m sure Jones would be very keen if he’s available

    Was told that Allen Campbell was our highest paid player before he went (won't quote the rediculous figure stated)

    Obviously took this with a large pinch of salt, but anyone know if there's any element of fact in this?

    bit of a worry - looks primarily like a passer - was hoping he might be able to carry the ball / take people on

    I'm not knocking Gilbert's qualities - I have seen hardly anything of him, but as it stands he has played 7 times this season for Middlesborough in the league and in total 10 games he's appeared in, for a total of 340 minutes, in which he has one goal, no assists, ten touches in the opposition box, six successful lay offs, one successful dribble and one yellow card.

    How long will it take him to get match fit.  He has appeared in a total of 27 games in the league in his career.   A lot to put on the young, inexperienced shoulders.    League 1 is a brutal division.   Not played in League 1 and it was 3 years ago, but 8 appearances in Swindon with no goals.

    Don't worry mate, we'll bring the best out of him....

    I hope he can justify his place if we sign him. 
    I hope it means we will get promoted.

    He would be the highest paid overall, as he’s on a championship wage at Luton. We wouldn’t have been paying all of it though

    Cawley saying we're interested confirms, IMHO, that we're close or at least it has gone beyond an initial phone call.

    It doesn't, IMHO, mean it is done.
    When will we know it's done??
  • valleynick66valleynick66
    Cawley quoting surely indicates the club have told him. 

    So no surprises in the morning I suspect.

    yeah. looks like a slightly advanced Connor Coventry.
    Hardly any of those clips were in the oppositions half.
    Gulp!

    I thought Nathan wasn’t interested in loans…
    Not what he said.

    He said he'd much prefer to develop our own players and likes people to be around for a while so they buy into the project but would take loans if they added quality.
    He originally said that he wasn't interested in improving other teams players by taking loans iirc,
    clearly now he seems to be having no other choice...🙄
    But we keep being told that Jones is given who he wants.

    Yet he took a loan this summer.

    Clearly his preference is own players over loans but he's not ruled them out.

    Good passing range 
    Nothing there in those clips showing him as a 10 or a winger. 

    He looks younger, fitter and better than AC and Probably Edun.   Still haven't seen enough in a real game and that's the issue for me.

    We are close to the play offs.  I'd like to see us being more aggressive in who we sign.

    Hopefully Ahadme out on loan & a striker + a winger in tomorrow (in addition to Gilbert who sounds to now be in the bag)

    He said he only wanted them if they definitely would improve us, which is why we nearly signed that young Arsenal GK on loan who ended up in La Liga.
