Middlesbrough (A) Match Thread

[CrispinLA in Texas]

KDH just runs alot so looks good.....but his football is really poor

[VLC86]

If this Iheanacho performance proves anything, it’s that a pre match Parmo is not a good pre match meal.

[ronnup]

Any streams that work?

Good with the Transfer window up and coming.

I wonder if kel has a jan move lined up ??

[jonny_wright]

We need fatawu, Vardy/cannon on asap 

[SheppyFox]

Enzo sleeping on the subs again. Kel & Mcateer should have been off at half time. It’s slow, toothless and boring. We’re not getting the basics right, we can’t cope under even a half decent press.

KDH is sooo annoying at times 

 

In a midfield without Ndidi and Winks, he's going to have to be The Man v Watford.

Come on City silence the moaners, unbelievable how so many can turn on a team that are top of the league, criticising most of our players, get a grip. 

Come on now.

 

I think most comments have actually been fair based what has been on show this afternoon.

 

There was talk about only being in second gear so far this season but starting to think we don’t have any other gears 👀

Isn't Ndidi back after the break?

Why the hell is Iheanacho still on the pitch? He started off bad, and is getting worse. He’s single handedly stopping every attack - we’ve got 3 strikers on the bench ffs

Like playing with 10 men

[DennisNedry]

Enzo is sleeping again, just like against Leeds, subs are badly needed. 

[egg_fried_rice]

dangerous free kick position for boro

Premier League sides will also be more open? We're also how many games in to a new managers reign, and playing style?

They would be more open yeah, and that's probably an argument in favour of our style, but the argument against it would be that premier league teams would also be far better defensively, which is something we struggle to break down, they likely would not be parking the bus like many teams do in this league, but they would not need to. An open premier league team is still infinitely more dangerous than a park the bus championship team. 

Yeah it's early days and the turnaround has been great, but that doesn't really excuse issues, it just gives a little bit of breathing room to improve. 

[Focks]

Knacker them out and score in last 5 mins. 0-1 job done

He is a good ish championship player. Sell if we get an English player subsidy. 30 mill

[trabuch]

Dangerous FK for them - thankfully it was shit.

Refereeing in this division is hilarious. Still haven't got used to how bad it is. 

[MPH]

Faes you donut…

[JimJams]

Poor place for Faes to give the FK away but what kind of header was that from Hamza? Nothing on it at all.

[The Doctor]

Silly foul Faes. Need to get Nacho off though, he's putting in one of his first touch like a concrete bollard performances
