Happy with that.

Or should I say, Hoppe with that.

Dieng on the bench. WHY.

 

[BoroPhil]

Fry injured if not on bench?

Front 4 looks good and Hackney back in his best position.

 

[TeessideCleveland]

Dieng on the bench. WHY.

Agreed
If fit should start, if not why's he on the bench?

 

[kuepper]

Fry dropped or injured?

Must be injured, or surely he'd be on the bench?

 

[Chappy112]

Dieng on the bench. WHY.

Yeah I don't understand either, I know Carrick has put players on the bench before who weren't ready to play any minutes but I don't think he'd do that with a keeper so he must be fit surely?

Happy with the team other than that, seems he has finally learned, hopefully we put in a good performance.

Carrick only put hoppe on the bench with the pressure he is under as he does not want him anywhere near the team .

Only complaint is having Dieng on the bench. Seems a strange one.

Can understand not wanting to start outfield players if they're tired or struggling for fitness but should that really be such an issue for a GK?

If he's injured then he shouldn't even make the bench.

I did notice that Jones was warming up Glover in Saturday. Normally the sub keeper does. Or is that not Dieng's thing?

Is that team a back 3 team i cant figure it out.

 

[Boro4life]

Alot more positive selection than the one at the weekend I can see how that side will work the formation etc. Would of preferred Sammy and Dijksteel in over the Leeds loans though as better develop your own players than Leeds

It'll be Thomas Clarke RVB and Ayling at the back.

Hackney Howson CM

Then Greenwood mcgree Azaz and Forss rotating up front

 

[Duffman]

No starting spot for Dan Dan the back pass man!

It's just another head-scratcher really.

Think we all just assumed Dieng would come straight back in after returning to the club.

 

[TheBlueButterfly]

Good team that, very confident about tonight!

 

[Nottyboy]

I think that's about as strong a team as we can put out at the moment save perhaps for Dieng.

This is the best bit about that team selection. I'd happily have in a 3 man midfield but too slow for a 2 man.
