Unfortunately, I always end up back at Uncle Frank, bringer of Little Aaron, Big Bad Tom, Michael Carrick et al. To be fair to Comolli, he bagged Berbatov & Bale and I’ve a funny feeling even Arneson wanted Downing. Perhaps there’s a good player inside just waiting to leap out when he leaves ‘Boro but I doubt it.

We’ve been chasing Downing syndrome for 2 years now, I’m pretty confident the young Englishman is a target of Comolli’s.
Just a quick question regarding Comolli, if his role at the club is to bring in the players, irrespective of who the manager is, shouldn’t it be that when Ramos arrived he’d no need to hand Comolli a list of 30 players that he (Ramos) feels he needs? After all, the ‘tacticly inept’ Jol managed to get the ones we have to 5th twice, wouldn’t Ramos’ impact been much more immediate? After all, we should have the right players in place as Comolli has been purchasing for 2 years.

And why is no other club falling over themselves to buy him?

“We’ve got Tony, Tony Galvin, Tony Galvin on the wing.”

Maybe Downing should try rolling down his socks?

I totally agree Bagel - Downing - good grief. Surely this isn’t the hand of Juande…?

Maybe Downing can teach Lee to cross his first ball. The idea is to lift the ball from the wings into the danger area around the penalty box.
