Nigel Graham Pearson Posted 27 April 2018 Posted 27 April 2018 Any reason at all to prefer this guy over Dragovic? 1
Ted Maul Posted 28 April 2018 Posted 28 April 2018 Boro will want silly money and he's not an improvement on Maguire or Dragovic. Pass.

Lovely warm feeling round the kidneys. I met a woman via internet dating recently. She said last week, 'you didn't put THAT on your profile!'.

Boro want roughly £20m for him though. Not sure we'd spend that much but I wouldn't want our mid-table rivals getting him either. Assuming we think he is good enough, that hes a good complementary fit for the team, and If he is actually for sale, £20million in today's market seems reasonable doesn't it?

He's always looked solid to me - unless somebody like Gibson is a substantial upgrade then I would think that a permanent offer to Dragovic is a more likely scenario

The right kind of target even if it is probably just a rehashed link. There are few greater hallmarks of ineptitude than actually scoring for the opposition – and so we will award five points for each own goal scored, but give a free pass to those that only did it once because, well, accidents happen. Brighton are the worst offenders (five) with Newcastle (three) in second. Only Southampton, Everton, Liverpool, West Ham and Arsenal have not conceded any. Incidentally, the worst solo performer? Brighton’s Lewis Dunk, who has single handedly scored four. 1

les-tah Posted 28 April 2018 Posted 28 April 2018 Why an earth would the lad want to come here and play second fiddle to Morgan. 1
nepa fox Posted 28 April 2018 Posted 28 April 2018 Dragoon needs to be our guy, give leverkusen there money and smile. Dragon and Harry would be great. Imo 1

We have sent out a terrible message by not playing Dragovic when he was clearly ahead of Morgan. Gibson is a very good CB who does not panic at all. Very good in possession & would fit in nicely alongside Maguire.
breadandcheese Posted 1 May 2018 Posted 1 May 2018 Gibson is a good player and I certainly wouldn't be disappointed if we got him. Personally though, I'd rather try for Kurt Zouma.

He might be quite bit cheaper now though so wouldn't say no to him.

MikeyT Posted 19 May 2018 Posted 19 May 2018 Southampton are set to make a £20m move for Middlesbrough defender Ben Gibson. (Source: Sun Sport)
st albans fox Posted 19 May 2018 Posted 19 May 2018 Unless we are going three at the back we don’t have room for him - clearly evans is considered better value. 1

Agreed, our first choice centre halves will be Maguire and the new signing (probably Evans). Morgan will probably be third choice and possibly fourth choice will be Benalouane or one of the academy lads. People can forget about signing Mawson or Gibson to come here as a bench player. If we sign another centre half I'd expect him to be a young player with potential.
