Right winger with 22 years of age with a blistering pace and an accurate technique. Probably pricey but definitely a secure value.

Maverick type player. Although is is lighting quick and is physically strong his decision making has been called into question and his end product has been criticised. It was Karanka who signed him for Middlesbrough in a part-exchange deal with Albert Adomah. Edited by Willo (16 May 2018 11.14am)

Strange player - his athleticism is out of this world, and he has decent footwork, so a really effective dribbler. Once he gets into good positions however, he makes Bolasie look like a measured, calculated player. I don't think he's up to prem level at the moment, especially for the money he would cost - having said that, if the end product ever clicks with him, he could play anywhere; he's near enough impossible to stop in one-on-one situations; Wilf is one of the only players I can think of better.

Could learn a lot from Wilf, I should think. He's impressed in the Championship this season, so the price is probably going to be too high to take a risk on, but I do think we need another direct winger who can make something out of nothing as an option from the bench.

Michail Antonio can play out wide and also up front where he is dangerous in the air taking up positions at the far post to attack crosses.Also has a long throw in his armoury.

Doesthat...really matter? As long as he doesn't play as right back, I don't think he'll take the throw-ins.

I think there is already a thread on this player. As I said on it in the past, I think it is still true that Boro chairman Gibson is extremely unlikely to sell Traore. I think you are looking at least 25 mill to prize him away. Although I think he is a good player not sure we will take such a risk.

Keeping him one more year would mean a massive loss, as his price will go down big time. But your estimation to prize him away seems about right. I don't know if Palace is the team that will pay that kind of money, but I expect him to be on the move this summer. Perhaps to a richer PL club.

Boro and Gibson are financially solid, they are under no pressure to sell and want promotion. Most likely he will remain a Boro player unless they get a silly offer for him. I'm expecting him to stay.

Looks good until he gets near the final third when you find out that he has the same end product as my cat.
