Tomo 21,751 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 2 thing's a young player needs to make it at a club challenging at the top, firstly the quality to do it and secondly the patience to wait for the break through.Josh has the first and then some, if he has the second then he will be a top top player for us, no doubt about it.

Madmax 9,219 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 "I wanted to go to a team that played good football and as we saw tonight, Middlesbrough play good football," the 19-year-old told BBC Tees."There are top players here, it's not a big step down.""I trained with the boys on Monday, we worked on shape play, and then I started the game," he said."It's my first 90 minutes for a bit so I had to find my feet but as the game went on I thought I did better and better.""I hope Middlesbrough get promoted and I'm part of it," said McEachran."I've played with some of the boys when we've been with England U21 - the likes of Jason Steele, Joe Bennett, Luke Williams - so that has helped."I'm still trying to find a place to live up here and when I do that and am settled, things will get even better."Mowbray on Josh :"He'll enable us to be as fluent as we want to be really, and then if teams come pressing us he has the quality to pick the passes to the strikers and the other midfield players who are playing higher up."..........................................................................................................Fair to say he's enjoying himself there. zolayes and Kezza 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badboy 1,526 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 I fear for him regardless how well he does on loan. I can't see how he can play in the same side as Oscar, this is so sad as he'll become a great player at another club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FormerRussianSpy 163 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 From the Boro forum regarding McEachran's overall performance:what a prospect completely bossed the first half, never rushed a always looking forward could be the best signing weve made in ages, shame its only on loan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Honestly a bit surprised by all the positive comments by the Boro fans considering Josh gave away a pen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 So happy for Josh. Always knew he had a large reserve of Talent in him. The only problem is Oscar. I can't see where Josh would play if Oscar will play the Lampard role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see where Josh would play if Oscar will play the Lampard role.josh is 19. with all due respect lamps got a max of 2 years ahead of him. then it is all josh-oscar. also tbh oscar was poor in his first real test against reading so presuming that he will start ahead of josh is wrong.

didierforever 7,349 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 both times we have played oscar he has come in as a winger/cam, not as a double pivot player. i really have not seen much of him so dont know what kind of player he is but from what i have heard people always put him alongside mata-hazard. so josh should get slotted in the double pivot alongside mikel/dm in 2 years. both times we have played oscar he has come in as a winger/cam, not as a double pivot player. i really have not seen much of him so dont know what kind of player he is but from what i have heard people always put him alongside mata-hazard. so josh should get slotted in the double pivot alongside mikel/dm in 2 years.

Ollie 4,400 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Josh really does have a chance of making it here. He's been on the brink for a couple of years now and still has a chance. You can feel that Kakuta for example will leave because every time he gets close, he then performs badly and goes further away but Josh has always played well when he's played for us and has always stayed in the frame. He has the game to really break through. Oscar won't be left out tho, we spent £25m on him altogether so he will be a big player for us soon but Josh really has a chance.

Bambiny14 25 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 It's not really true that Josh and Oscar can not play in the same side imo. Oscar can play either in the center or on the wing and we will probably just see where is Josh's best position. But I think he could be a very, very good deep lying midfielder. So McEachran with another defensive midfielder in the double pivot (if we stay with the 4-2-3-1), and Oscar anywhere in the front 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
