The power he generated in that header!

To be honest I’d drop Jones for Djiksteel.

Definitely not. Jones hasn't been as good as last season but he's not the problem.

Dijksteel needs to play every week

 

[futureboy]

I gave up and went to load the dishwasher. Only took a couple of minutes. Was quite surprised when I came back!!

 

[Chappy112]

What a difference Dijksteel and Bola make just by having a bit of pace and being able to control and pass a football.

4-3, this. 4-3.

To be honest I’d drop Jones for Djiksteel.

Jones isn’t the problem, McNair isn’t good enough to get the ball to him or support him.

Dijk and Jones work well together.

Time to bring Massimo on

God knows what we do to players but we do something awful.

Clarke has been player of the season 4 seasons out of 5 playing at 3 different clubs. Comes to us and looks like he's never played before in his life!

other clubs give their players caffeine supplements, at Boro it's Horlicks...

Where was this fire in the first half…

 

[xxlshirts_fit_all]

We’ve not got anything yet, but this dispels the myth that wilder can’t change things…

 

[viv_andersons_nana]

Should be about 15mins added on, plenty of time yet.

 

[futureboy]

4-3, this. 4-3.

Like that Fulham game a few years ago? We score a late equaliser only to concede again??

 

[Sheriff_John_Bunnell_ret]

Honestly seeing them pinging the ball about here is just ******* me off. What's wrong with them. What's the point in turning up for half a game.

 

[Badonde]

Come on…..

 

[xxlshirts_fit_all]

Should be docked half a weeks wage for that first half like…

 

[BoroMart]

argh should have equalised there

 

[Laughing]

argh should have equalised there

He should have done mart

 

[Norman_Conquest]

argh should have equalised there

He saw his name in lights and skied it.

As others have pointed out, it’s a results business. It’s irrelevant what the fans think should be happening with team selection etc, that’s all on Wilder and possibly our director of football but fk knows what he does other than identify strikers who Wilder doesn’t want.

Some of players clearly aren’t listening, and it’s dragging the rest down, it’s like some of them only no lumping it forward. When we do this it completely undermines the entire setup/ game plan of the team.

As soon as we brought the footballers on, we largely stopped launching it and it’s been night and day,

McNair, fry, Roberts out, maybe Clarke too, mcgree in midfield for mowatt and two forwards up top, stop the cause of most of the problems (giving them the ball), and give us a better chance of scoring.

This is practically what I said in the first half, look at the difference.

Loads of the fans wanted McNair RB, fry CB and were even talking of roberts being ahead of steffen, today is a good example of why it won’t work. We’ve been lucky in a couple of the games we’ve started that way (Sunderland and Swansea). We had to play that way against Watford, as they’re better than us.
