BarnzFM Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Described to me by a boro fan as "can be quite good but don't expect consistency - also can take a while to get up to speed" the last bit meaning he will take a while to lose a bit of weight haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorenzos Only Goal Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 I'm not that pleased with this signing, I don't think he's that good a player, and he's had quite a few injury problems I give him 3 games before he's in the treatment room again. Better than nothing but not swinging from the curtains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROD LA AF NB DW/SG BG KS LF/JB WB JK LT Given that Pemberton has talked about the importance of being tighter defensively, I can't see we'd play 5 forwards / attacking midfielders. Also, having had to take Baker off on Saturday, with his previous of being sent off due to stupidity, Pearce will probably get a chance. I bet it's something like this: ROD LA AF AP DW/SG/JB MP KS BG/WB/LF LT LF/JB/BG/LF/BR JK 3 starting roles up for grabs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He takes penalties as well. 3 hours ago, Jack Dawe said: Couldn't get one past Frankie Fielding though (great save, actually). But we still lost. That was the first game I took Joe to at AG. Yes, FF did make a great save from his penalty that day. But Tomlin, Assombalonga, and Tyrone Barnett (yes, the same one) absolutely battered us that day, as did a certain Mark Little.

I loved Thunderbirds and have the theme on my ringtones, Sad I know! Didn't they use to brush out the strings? If they did then they didn't do a very good job of it.

Depends how much money they get. Only being facetious. I get your point. My only concern is will he be hard working enough, enough of a team player for a relegation scrap. The flip side of course is maybe he could be the one to produce bits of magic to save us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Isewater Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 This player makes me think of JET or Darren Caskey . Hopefully the effectiveness of the former ! Caskey was a very good player but ' rolled ' up at City far too late in his career to be of much use to the team . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon Tomlin shouldn't fall into that category, 27 years old so if anything that should be somewhere in middle of a footballers peak years. I always thought Caskey was 30 or older but maybe wrong. Footballers worth their salt don't tend to be over the hill by that age, not at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His interviews don't suggest he's happy to be at bristol city, more like he's happy to be back playing football and being in the spot light. I don't mind that as such, but as long as he plays well and works hard then when he moves on in the summer I won't have any bad feelings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kibs Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 Intersting interview actually, sounds like he was being advised to wait for other offers but basically just wanted to get going and get playing football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's got to good news, I think he feels that he's got a lot to prove and has a bit of attitude which is great, we do need a bit of a X factor and hopefully he will be it, he's an attacking midfielder whenever I've seen him, so I do think we still need a striker !
