Middlesbrough Post Match 1-0 Defeat

[Claridge]

KDH idiotic decision making cost us there. 

[Weller Wing]

Poor finishing from us and a worldy free kick from them.

Shooting practice on Monday please Enzo

Still think we have enough in the squad to stay up 

Yeah ...I don't think we're getting relegated again this season 🤣

[Aus Fox]

Not that bad a performance today overall, we were by far the better team and missed chance after chance.

The worst thing is you could see in the first 10 minutes Iheanacho wasn’t interested today, yet he played the full 90.

Mavidi was awful and Vestergaard has a stinker at the back. 
Some hard work to be done over the international break, but hopefully these 2 defeats are the wake up call we need.

Some absolute embarassing "fans" in that match thread. Have a wank and chill out.

Its actually pathetic anyone questioning that performance 

[indierich06]

We really need to get more clinical.

WEF was Hamza thinking????????? Our strikers are useless. 2 defeats in a row. Awful.

He had to make the tackle was just mis timed. I'm hindsight if the ref had followed the rules they probably don't score.

[jonthefox]

I always thought we were tempting fate with this ' piss the league ' talk. 

[Eskay]

It's unacceptable to not even have an attempt on goal after conceeding. 

 

Sometimes you need to be aware of the situation and play with more urgency. There wasn't enough time for the passing moves we were playing. 

 

Subs were far too little too late. 

[Lcfc-1992]

Don’t think we played badly just the same that we have all season. Poor finishing and final ball cost us. The style of play is going to be frustrating when the results don’t back it up

[Tielemans63]

We should have won. Bit concerned that Enzo leaves it so late when some players are so clearly miles off it. 

[DennisNedry]

Another poor, lazy performance.

Yes we didn't deserve to lose and lost to a wonderful free kick, but we didn't start playing till 70 minutes.

Overplaying it constantly, refusing to shoot, even when faced with an open goal (Mavididi).

Very poor from Enzo again not making substitutions when required.

Kelechi was particularly terrible.

Yet again turning up and just expecting to win.

Stop talking about records. If we don't buck our ideas up we aren't getting automatic promotion.

[Taz_The_Fox]

Mavididi poor, Fatawu decision making poor again...

 

We need a plan B and a striker who can facilitate that plan B

[StanSP]

Shame we're not scoring, let alone losing 2 in a row. 

 

Some of the players need a gentle kick up the backside and need to regain a bit of form. 

 

Have to be better after the internationals before a busy December! 

 

More incentive for Leeds and other chasers to get wins with the gap closing and as we drop points.

 

I know we're not going to win every game but can't let these losses affect us going forward. Have to win against Watford to help with getting momentum back.

it;s the decision making - thery need to study mindfulness so that they are able to avoid emotional decsisons and square it to mavididi

Was silly but Vestergaard blindly backheeling it into midfield was worse

Mavididi is winding me up big time at the minute. I’d like to see him out of the side for a few games. He needs a rocket up him because his level has dropped massively. 

He’s never been very good, bless him.

Was probably our motm to be fair, doesnt say a lot though as we were poor.

 

We been found out really.  Test for Enzo this.  Teams know how to beat us now.

[Muzzy_no7]

We were better than Boro and created some  clear cut chances. Should’ve won, but lost to a worldie. 
 

Enzo has a lot to learn and answer for after the last 2-3 weeks. 
 

Much to do. 

[foxes_rule1978]

Didn’t deserve to lose that, not the best performance but we created chances… their keeper made some top notch saves, and they win it with a great goal, unlucky. Got to do better with our finishing though. I’m far from concerned

We like a meltdown don’t we , we won’t win every game and teams will raise their game agaisnt us. Leeds and other will lose a few more between now and the end of the season so let’s get through this little blip and crack on again . Crap result but still 8 points clear of 3rd

We were by far the better team throughout 

[Sol thewall Bamba]

No goals from open play in three games, strikers can't hit a barn door with a shovel.

Frustrating. Did enough to win I think. Individual errors and a stunner sees us off. 

Fully agree we played well and we’re well on top. They scored an amazing free kick which no gk saves. What can you do. I assume there will be a loads of Herbert’s buzzing to state how we have no plan b though
