Boro thread

Cooper didn't want the job and Gibson has always appointed managers out of work.

Wouldn't surprise me if Rohl was never really in contention to begin with.

We got £21m for Lath and it's looking likely Azaz will be sold for £20m. I also expect us to get £20m at least for Hackney, so the money should be there for a rebuild.

Strikers who score goals are always in demand.

As for the other 2 you won't get near that unless at least 2 clubs are interested.

We only got £15M for Clarke and he's better than the pair of them. We got that because there was only one suitor.

Leeds, Bournemouth and Palace all reported to be interested in Azaz.

Find it very hard to believe he’ll be moving to a PL club this summer. Far too inconsistent. Goes through good spells and then does nothing for 8 games

He could look better playing with better players. It happned with Rogers. You could see whilst he was here that he had talent, but his performances went up another level as soon as he moved to Villa.

Has his weaknesses for sure, but he's technically gifted and I could see him doing well in the Premier League.

Yeah you may be right there. To be fair, if an offer comes in I can’t see Gibson saying no either. It’s not really clear where Boro’s spending money is going to come from this summer

Seems to be a fair bit of negativity about Edwards ?
Averaged decent crowds last season 24000 -will that drop off this season with this appointment ?-would think if you make a couple positive signings that would help ?

Fair to say many seem to be underwhelmed by the appointment.

Season ticket prices were frozen so hopefully we won't see a drop off, or at least not a big drop off.

Although fans are feeling underwhelmed at the moment, everyone is still going to be curious to see how he does.
