* The Unofficial "Official" Boro v Exeter Carabao Cup Match-Day Thread *

Glover 6 - harsh on him letting two in, both in the corners and unstoppable, he had noting else to do, distribution was hot and cold.
Dijksteel 7 - good solid game
Fry 7 - not a lot to do snuffed out everything with ease
McNair 7 ditto
Bangura 8 - very bright, athletic, quick, forward thinking
Hackney 8 - drove the ball forward from midfield
Barlaser 7 - solid
Jones 6 - was ok, but didn't quite make the most of it when he had space
Rogers 9 - top drawer, great goal
Silvera sloppy first half, danger second half, great goal
Lath 6 - no space to work in took his pen well

RVD 6
Engel 6
Crooks 6
Coburn 6

Lots of positives on the field plus rest time for Dieng, Engel, VDB, Howson, Greenwood, Crooks and Coburn

Good ratings, but what’s Silveras?😄…. I’m wondering if any would come in on Saturday though? I’d be tempted to start Dijksteel and Rogers.
 
What I’ll say about Glover is it’s clear he’s not as comfortable with the ball as Dieng is, will he be available when Dieng is away in Jan/Feb or will he also be on international duty?
 
Find it hard to see how players get 8 and above when for 50% of the game we were getting beat , and their keeper wasn't pulling worldies ..
 
Reading the ratings in the gazette from a bloke born in Guisbro, with a Sunlun accent who supports Man Utd.
Give him a break
:love:

Because the ratings aren’t for 50% of the game. That’s like saying how did that bloke who came first in the race win a medal, he was nearly last for the first half of the race.

I get that ..
Maybe that's the difference in outlook / viewpoint that makes us all happy..
I thought no one first half had a 8/ 10 performance.. possibly a few 6.5 .. mainly 5 average.
Several had 8/10 9/10 second half.
