stinny1 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 well square pegs again Bennett right back Gallagher on right wing but left side looks steady Cunningham and Downing. Which side would you set your team to attack answer on a post card . Will Bennett get any protections and will he be able to stop crosses i hope so and can the team play on the front foot from the start with the lack of mobility in the side. Can they do it for 90 minutes all these questions come ten too five we will know it might be tin helmet time 1-1 mistake by back four Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ll huff and puff in the first half and have a bit of the ball, but not create anything of note and then Middlesborough will score. Same script as usual. Yep that’s exactly how I see it going. Huff and puff, have one or two half chances, fall behind, one or two more half chances, no real panicking, game draws close. Edited August 17, 2019 by Gavlar Somerset Rover!

skous18 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Gallagher instead of Rothwell is just a stupid decision. I cant really see how Gallagher could be more effective and I don’t really care if i have to be honest. Rothwell excites me and I rather watch him, than pretty much anyone else in this team 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigdoggsteel Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 To not star Rothwell is just piss poor. Sick of mowbrays choices now 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maji Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Pants selection in my opinion, no pace, players out of position, let's see if TM knows better. My monies on Boro now. Sorry Woodgates 1st victory! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JacknOry Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Positives - No Bell, DG up front. Negatives - SG shoehorned in on the wing when it should be Rothwell, No pace in the side at all, Bennett still picked over Nyambe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darrenrover Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Has Mowbray EVER done anything (team selection, substitutions, tactics, formation, new signings) that the majority of supporters could understand and endorse fully? I'm sure his intention is always to leave as many people as possible scratching their heads. If we don't get shut soon the trap door awaits.

Amo Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 13 minutes ago, LDRover said: The lad Gallagher is shite and 5 million worth of shite too. Quite how Mowbray saw fit to waste pretty much the whole budget on him (and Brereton beforehand) baffles me and now he shunts him on the wing as his ineffectiveness has become so apparent at the expense of a game changer in Rothwell. Total panic buy. Speaks volumes for our so-called scouting network. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Husky Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 (edited) 1-1 for me. Boro are pretty poor when all is said and done, no matter how much Tony says their left back is Roberto Carlos. Edited August 17, 2019 by Husky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucksrover Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Would have Nyambe in for Bennett, Rothwell in for Gallagher and Chapman instead of Downing. I thought if he ever stopped playing Smallwood I would be happy. Seems Mowbray will always play a couple or more of his favourites instead of the best team. As others have said, thank God Smallwood got suspended last year and Mowbray had to pick Travis. I think with Downing Mowbray is a bit giddy to have a player with his CV - England caps, Liverpool etc. With Bennett he has said he likes a few senior players to manage the dressing room. So we get lumbered with a rubbish right back because Mowbray doesn't want to do a key aspect of his job. Gallagher is in because mowbray needs one of his expensive strikers to work out. Feel for Rothwell not starting after how he finished last season. And for Brereton after his goals in pre-season. Rant over, COYB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is it wasn’t really a panic buy per se given TM wanted him for yonks and just refused to look elsewhere. Terrible buy I agree given we’ll never play two up top. As for our scouting network - it’s simply embarrassing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tugay-is-God Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Not a terrible start, look ok going forward back with the Dack Graham partnership back. Downing put in a couple decent balls as well. Just have no faith in us managing to keep a clean sheet though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miker Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Great start so far.. Cunningham is really impressive. Him and Johnson have massively improved this team. Only negative for me so far is Gallagher out wide - he is doing okay, but he is not a winger and feels wasted out there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
