Boro look dangerous from set pieces and crosses - some big lads

I'm being optimistic and hoping that i'm right. So far it could be argued that we do have that luxury but a serious injury to DG or Dack would perhaps change that...

Do wonder if TM is doing 2 things with this One: Easing BB in so that he doesn't get too much pressure straight away - ie accepting that fans will criticize TM for not playing him whilst BB gets to acclimatize himself without being labelled a flop Two - bulking him up and getting DG to teach him how to use it. Might just be me but BB looks stronger than when he arrived.

Think BB is being protected from criticism and beefed Up a little Before being deployed as CF. So far im impressed with hos tactical brain but less so with shooting...

Not aimed at you personally but compare this with what was said when the lineup was announced yesterday ?

Suggests that other teams had saleable assets in contrast to Rovers ?

Oh ffs

Good (how many times did we lose players to injuries after coming on not so long ago)

In Tony we... (Trust with a bit of apprehension and skepsis)

Bolloxio - was just about to post "trust Tony" ?

Handball or a push by Graham

Thought Conway was the only positive midweek so happy enough to see him start

Sort it out Tony ?

Lacking cohesion

Regarding Rog post: Would be incredibly interesting to know (ish) total wage cost per point - primarily when comparing TM with PL and even GS (adjusted for "inflation" of course)

Ok - that explains it. Can you access games on a saturday afternoon??

Which country are you in?? Costs me GBP 5 per game in Sweden ?

What i am saying is what i wrote. Don't embellish it. Not sure about Reed out wide - with Bennett at RB then i can understand it. Evans and Smallwood passed forward when somebody showed for it and got free - otherwise retained posession. Some sloppy passing but not alone in that today. Some good tackling and pressuring to break up play - not helped by a ref allergic to tackling... As said - wouldn't argue with Reed in middle but don't think Evans and Smallwood have been that bad.

As for Brollyman - deluded to come out with the "did enough to win" BS ? Love TM for his honest assessment - "dreadful game and thank **** for the 3 points" ??

On ifollow thought it looked a pen first time. Rewatched it a few times and less convinced but definately a foul based on what todays referee was giving outside of the area... Was a frustrating game - better finishing and it could easily have been 2 or 3. Tough weather but so many poor crossfield balls. Diasgree about Smallwood and Evans - think they work as we have Arma, Dack and Graham to do the fancy stuff. Wouldn't argue with Reed in middle but don't think Smallwood or Evans stood out as being particularly bad today. As for TM and "caution" - think about our back 4 today. Wouldn't you also want to protect them... ??

Frustrating but DG should score at least 1 of those chances. Bloomin awful weather and referee not helping things either

@#/? - "their here..."

Reed booked.

Don't mind no commentary but weird without any sound from the ground

Should be 1 up already
