Boro H Match Thread

[CPepFox]

Think Jannik and Luke both need to sit... Faes and Pereira instead at back. Choudruy for Skipp. And not much can be done up top.

Skipp! Why? 

Skipp or Soumare....thats why. 

 

With reminding that is £40m worth of players there. Let that sink in

You can still get 2/1 on Boro at PaddyPower

[StevieH]

Smacks of desperation changing formation and personnel. Skipp really! 

[davieG]

3-5-2 with ball

5-3-2 without ball

 

Either way

I know he's not without several glaring flaws but Choudhury is better than both.

Because the option is Soumare I guess

He has more bit and energy, definitely. Ability... probably about the same 

[ramboacdc]

Positive vibes only.

 

I am positive we will only ship 1 goal tonight!

Luke Thomas back after being dropped for being shit only 1 game ago.

The slowest front 2 we have ever put up? 

Across the whole pitch, we seem to have collected the slowest gaggle of footballers in recent times.

 

 

[Sunbury Fox]

Are we certain this is a 352? It could be the usual 4231 with Ayew at LW and Okoli at RB. I hope I'm wrong of course!

Hamza!

 

or Bobby, Ayew playing the 10 instead of the left? Leaving James and Winks in the DMs

[DennisNedry]

Nelson 👍🏻

 

Skipp 🤮

Maybe this formation suits him better.

 

Cos he cost 20 odd million and be cant just freeze him out.

 

Cos the other alternative of F**ING SOUMARE!

 

[fox_favourite]

Hang on....Vesty captain 

[davieG]

[RedSoxUK]

Ric Flair has wanked himself into oblivion because Nelson is playing, allegedly.

[Mickyblueeyes]

I mean Luke Thomas starting is shit. But that midfield. Who opens up their defence. And once they do, which one of the cart horses get onto the through ball. The tactics will be keep it tight and get it to Fatawu and hope he does something - no change. We are officially QPR.

 

Good luck to Ben Nelson. 

[st albans fox]

The big question is whether I watch this or Liverpool v Madrid ????

[DezFox]

At least it’s different, VK will be injured and both as bad as each other anyway. No problem with skipp either, there must be a a performance in there. Happy with Nelson, I hope he plays again regardless of performance tonight.

I'd have Hamza in for Skipp and anyone in for Luke Thomas

 

I'd have an empty Pot Noodle cup in for Skipp.

Messy!

[Ric Flair]

The lack of pace is absolutely scary. Great to see Nelson but this has all the ingredients to be an absolute disaster from a last ditch desperate roll of the dice from Marti.

 

Needed Mavididi and Daka for pace.

 

Stolarczyk

 

Okoli

Vestergaard

Nelson

 

Fatawu

Winks

James

Thomas (should be Aluko)

 

Ayew

Daka

Mavididi
