Has been told he is surplus to requirements at boro. Would be a great player if he would come.

Errrrr.....

Aye.

CR7 is looking for a new challenge anaw. I can't think of many bigger than being faced by Kieran Tierney so let's give yon Jorge Mendes boy à phone.

Why? 32 slowing down a bit. Not the player he was but still would be class enough for us!

The (approximate) £25,000 a week drop in wages might be a slight stumbling block.

This close season is the most mental I can ever remember. This is the kind of thread you would expect over the road. He will get a club in England who will pay him 20 to 30 k per week we could offer about a tenth of that!

He might struggle to get that from any club at the moment. So he may forced to reduce his asking price. But it is a long shot. I guess I'm putting my heart into this post rather than my head

I don't know why but since day one I've always got Stewart Downing mixed up with Adam Johnston.


My heart skipped a beat for a second there.

Stewart Downing will no doubt be getting offers from a host of championship teams offering 10k+, but aye he'd be interested in signing for us on 2k a week 🙄🙄 unbelievable at times on here

Don't think anybody is disputing his quality. Just highly unlikely he'd come here for a four figure wage. He will have plenty offers from clubs down south I'm sure.

Me too not sure why since they look nothing alike!

Yeah, try a reduction to the tune of £48k p/w. He will easily get another team in the championship.

He's not coming here, I think we all know that, but to be honest I don't think he'd be that big a success in Scotland anyway. Guy never met his potential and only commands such a big wage because he's English and plays in England. Younger days he'd maybe have ripped our league up but now I'd guess, like many other stars who come up in the twilight of their career expecting a walk in the park, he'd find it a hard league than expected. Better players than Stewart Downing haven't made the grade in Scotland.

Downing has had a pretty fine career. You don't play that many games in EPL just because you're English.

He's younger than Kris Commons and IMO he's a better player.

Just saying...

Very very good player ........... which is what about 50 or 60 clubs down south who can offer better wages than us are saying about him as well, this board is getting barmier and barmier as the close season progresses :faf:

Diego Costa is surplus to requirements at Chelsea. We should be in for him.

Only team that could potentially get him here would be Celtic, and even then they'd be pushing the boat out.

He's not going to struggle at all to get that. He's got 2 years left on a contract at Boro that guarantees it. If he leaves it'll likely see that subsidised by Boro. I'm not sure Boro will be too keen on us offering to pay £2k of his £50k a week wage.

I agree. Downing, 5pm announcements, Lennon away, McGinn to Watford etc, etc, etc. Can't wait for the season to start and the window to close
