I think the nadir was that 4-1 trouncing they gave us at their place though in 2005.

The Keano one. I remember this one the best (worst?). Watched it in the pub with my dad and there was a bunch of Bolton fans celebrating like the Champions League was going to the Reebok every time Boro scored.

Awful game.

The absolute state of our team line up. Richardson, Smith, Silvestre, Park. Urgh.

My wedding day

Pretty sure Boksic was the highest paid player in England when at Boro. A year after we had won the treble Crazy wages for a guy, who whilst talented, was not prolific and always had injuries.

Bit harsh.

I don't think anybody would argue that he wasn't world class...he just didn't fit in to the team. I'm not even sure what Fergie was thinking tbh.

tonali is a quality player but why would we want to add another holding mid when we already have 4 or 5

I have to know who you're counting as a holding midfielder in our squad to make the numbers up to 4 or 5.

I count one, and that's generous judging by how bad his legs have gone.

Watch a lot of Bologna do you chaps?

Because whilst all of our current midfielders are traditional, fairly basic holding midfielders, this guy is a fancy pants Italian regista. That means deep-lying playmaker to you sunshine.

we need a regista like you need a sense of humor.

Holding a spot in the squad maybe..

sad assessment of where our current midfield stands outside of Bruno...basically a bunch of water carriers

Probably enough to know he doesn't play for them.

Wouldn't be necessary to form an opinion on Tonali
