We'll be having your captain. Thank you very much. |  |

He's out of favour, so it's not quite as bullish as you suggest. |  |
| Trust the process. Trust Phil. |

They're 17th, perhaps he should be in favour.
It's definitely a coup and a loss to Blackburn. Great signing. |  |

Looks a good signing, but there's a danger of going overboard here.
If he was that much of a coup and a loss to Blackburn they wouldn't be loaning him out would they? | |

Very solid cover which is really good news. |  | | |

Wouldn't say it's a coup but a very good signing, especially with Morsy out for the next 2 games. I think it is a strong indicator we will be leaving nothing to chance and looking to upgrade all over the pitch. I am not sure most people saw a left sided 10 or a CM as big priorities this window but both players improve us as a squad. | | | |

Time will tell. But to nab a divisional rivals captain is definitely, on paper anyway, a great singing. | |

Wouldn't it suggest he's not performing well enough if he can't get in a side currently 17th? |  |

I don't know anything about him, just stating the facts that it's hardly stealing an important player off them as the OP is suggesting. And not sure how it's "a loss to Blackburn" when he's not playing.
But the fact that McKenna wants him is good enough for me. Luongo wasn't playing much when we picked him up and that worked out alright. Presumably McKenna sees something in him that Blackburn aren't seeing and/or can train him in McKennaball, which they obviously don't have! | |

Morsey nor Mass were not rated enough by Boro for them to remain there so we nipped in…..
That worked out well 😉 | | | |

From what I’m reading it appears more of a personality clash with the manager than anything else. Loan allows him to get out of there and possibly either a) return after Tomas is sacked or b) try it here with us and maybe earn a contract here.
Either way for me a real coup. Could see him playing alongside Morsy actually allowing Morsy to play slightly further forward perhaps. [Post edited 5 Jan 2024 12:59]

Perhaps if he was an important member of the side they wouldn't be languishing in 17th.
Boro never played Morsy. | |

Exactly this. Just because a player isn’t playing doesn’t mean he isn’t their best player. Indicates a personality clash/fall out for sure. They seem a club in disarray tbh and obviously backing the manager which means Travis to us.
Also strange if some fans doubt this signing at all given Kmc wants this to happen! [Post edited 5 Jan 2024 13:03]

Morsy played 31 games In the one season he was at Boro

Not necessarily. Would you have said Delaney was a poor player and dodgy signing for Palace because he didn’t do well at left back for us? The same Delaney who then went on to play over 130 PL games in his preferred position.
Sometimes things don’t work out for players. We’ve had a few here. Chris Wood is possibly the best example lately - looked utterly lost here and then went and banged them in for Leeds and Burnley. |  |

Totally get what you are saying but he's been a very important player for them for 5 years. If we were signing him in summer just gone this would be hailed a hell of a signing. Captain in back of 48 games for Blackburn just missing playoffs. He's the same player.
Think just not fitting with JDT (personality or what he needs for his system). Seems very much in the Morsy mould/style.
I assume this might mean Ball moves on if considered an upgrade. Might just be for Humphreys to go out and play on loan (or both). | |

Not highly rated by a BR fan I know well. But probably means very little when you change allegiances |  |
