The late, great, best ever Boro defender Willie Maddren at No6I like it when we have defenders at 6 and midfielders on 4
Agree he has such potential but it's not been coming like it was at the end of last year and the first few months of this one. I know it's not going to happen but I would like to see Paddy at right centre back and Dijiksteel at RWB for a couple of games, if we stayed in the Cup then that would have been the ideal place to have a test.One thunderbolt change could be; smith at RWB for Jones as he hasn’t been pulling up trees for a while yet (!) although his goal vs West Brom might save him from the axe….it’s coming though….
I think that's what it'll be but with Forss instead of WatmoreMy guess -
Steffen
Jones
Fry
Lenihan
McNair
Giles
Crooks
Howson
Mowatt
McGree
Watmore
As you say Jones did score Vs West Brom, and he was far better defensively in that game than Giles was on the left. He's been wanting to balance up with a Jones equivalent on the left, so I can't see him then removing the threat on the rightOne change ; Fry for bola…deffo!

But some of the teams on here…dear me…..it’s the team wilder will pick not your choice of team!
Mowatt won’t start! Neither will hoppe.
So…nailed on team today;
Steffen
Jones
Fry
Lenihan
McNair
Giles
Crooks
Howson
McGree
Forss
Akpom
Watmore for forss after 70 mins and hoppe for Akpom after 80 mins (assuming we are winning)
He's reportedly illCrooks injured?
