My level of concern and despair at our prospects has gone from a very low 4…………..to a 7 out of 10. At last a player who is an improvement to what we already have in the squad. Just hope his fitness levels are ok? Well he completed 90 mins for Bournemouth two weeks ago in the FA Cup in a 2-1 win over....Birmingham City Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P'head Red Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Wasn't excited by the interview he gave, but it's not talking the talk I care about, but the walking the walk is what matters. As long as he plays well, creates and scores a few then his interviews are the least of my worries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fergie1919 Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Since Tomlin is an attacking midfielder and will be good to give competition to freeman Aswel. Where does Bradley Dack play? Is he a centre midfielder or an attacking midfielder in the same position as tomlin? I've not seen dack play before. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a few sips of that half empty glass and try to be positive, I have seen Tomlin play at Middlesboro, and on his day he is quality, as long as he doesn't get sent off!!

... Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Some unkind b*****d just told me Tomlin only signed when we offered him a Krispy Kreme Gold Card for unlimited use in the city centre outlet. What a low-down cheap shot. Uncle TFR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lenred Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Can't believe the amount of moaning on here about him. We've signed a player with fantastic ability, who is proven at the top end of a division we are currently languishing near the bottom of. Someone of the quality that I and many others feared would not set foot at Ashton Gate for the foreseeable future at least. The bloke has always been on the larger side, as far as I ever remember seeing him anyway and the various videos of him on here bear that out. Lets congratulate the club on getting someone in of his quality and hope there's a couple more quality surprises in store before Feb 1st. This bodes well imho.........

samo II Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Probably a better signing that I expected us to make,to be honest. Regularly featured, and often as one of the best attacking players, in a very good Middlesborough team last year; wasn't surprised Bornemouth bought him last summer at all. Bags of natural talent, and likes a shot (which is something we need); I think he could be a key element in helping us crack open defences going forwards. As mentioned by a few already; all this talk about his fitness - he's recently done 90 competitive minutes for Bournemouth, and from those leaked messages, he certainly comes here with a point to prove. Pretty pleased with this signing, and certainly think it'll add an 'edge' to our attacking play we've lacked, because the lad isn't shy about getting into tussles too, and that is no bad thing.

Sargent Pepper Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 This signing just reminds me the optimism and excitement that came with the Trundle signing. Hopefully Tomlin will be a bit more effective. Whatever went on at Bmouth, I wouldn't have thought we would have a chance of bringing him here so well done to all involved. it might take a while for the team to gel as him, Gladwin and Freeman will all be looking for the same space but if they click it should be an exciting prospect going forward.

Guest Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Must admit I only really see football that's at AG and don't watch that many league televised matches - especially championship last year. Whenever I've seen him I admit to being totally underwhelmed, and based solely on those isolated games I couldn't believe Boro sold him for £3.5m. So I'm not excited, but I'm in no position to judge either with the limited amounts I've seen of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shtanley Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 We may have finally found someone who can find Kodjia's runs. Imagine actual goals and assists from open play from one of our midfielders! Crazy thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I'm not excited, but I'm in no position to judge either with the limited amounts I've seen of him. Looking at the current market, and his form last year; the price he moved for in the summer was actually surprisingly low. Afobe has just gone to Bournemouth for a huge fee, and though it looks to have paid off, he's got less experience at this level than Tomlin, who has played Championship level football for most of the past five seasons. If he's fit and motivated, he's as good a player in we could have signed in our current predicament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The latter being Tomlin in the hole behind Burns and Bryan on the flank, utilise Kodjia pace through middle. Could try sticking to 4-3-3?
