Unbelievable! Haven't enjoyed a second half as much in a long time after Boro's biggest win ever at Sunderland 😆 Well that's the way to make a man ...
Well a fairly even first half with few chances but maybe 1-1 wouldn't have been unfair after each side missed a pretty decent chance each - Boro shoul...
van den Berg injured in the warm-up 🙄 so Smith starts
@powmillnaemore I'm feeling better after watching that!
@clive-hurren I'm a little apprehensive about a left flank that has Greenwood covering Engel and of course McGree can't really be replaced going fo...
McGree out with a foot injury it seems - hopefully it's not too serious and he'll be fit after the international break - unless he's hoping to be fit ...
Team News... Well big surprise is no McGree in the squad - I guess he's befellen but at least Howson and Lenihan are on the bench. Also van den Berg...
@pedro I wouldn't be surprised to see van den Berg back in at left-back for the Sunderland game as Carrick may prioritise ability to defend over ge...
@lenmasterman Looks like the AI journalist algorithm needs a little reprogramming...
@deleriad I like the sound of Carrick and Woodgate as the good-cop mad-cop duo but I don't know if Carrick changed his tactics that much at the sta...
Top marks Deleriad on a brilliant and entertaining match preview that will now most unlikely have Michael Carrick looking over his shoulder. I woul...
I forgot to mention Boro up to 16th now and incredibly only 5 points off the play-offs with 108 points still to play for!
Another well-deserved win for Boro where I think it was a game where the players had to work out how to play against Cardiff. It was also game where s...
Boro looked quite disjointed for the first 25 minutes, which given the changes wasn't surprising and their passing wasn't as crisp as at the weekend. ...
A few surprises with Engel starting at left full-back with no van den Berg in the squad and Bangura on the bench. Also Barlasser starts with no Howson...
Team News...
Many thanks Clive for a very good Cardiff preview packed with lots of interesting information, which also paints something of an almost surreal pictur...
@pedro I don't think the first goal was van den Berg's fault but I think a more experienced full-back would have maybe been better positioned to tr...
@jarkko Sounds like Lewis O'Brien is going to be out for quite a while from what Carrick said after the game so that's a huge blow - I noticed both...
@original-fat-bob Yes, he'll probably be caretaker manager next week 😀
Well that was a pulsating game that went from comfy Boro victory to edging it slightly to possibly throwing away three points to a potential great vic...
Boro started the game really well and moved the ball much faster than of late and McGree was looking sharp and lethal going forward as he twice finish...
@k-p-in-spain Tried to post the image of the team news using my iphone as am on the way home but doesn’t work the same as my laptop so just a link ...
@exmil Well that £10 grand prize money probably won't even cover the trip to Exeter 🤣 What a joke - why are they even bothering to give prize mo...
Many thanks Andy for another well-written informative preview and I agree that this could be a good time to play another under-performing team now tha...
Just watched the highlights on MFC and yes Hackney looked impressive and was driving forward more often than I've seen - also looked like he's develop...
So job done and through to the 4th round with a team that had eight changes from the weekend - also goals for Latte Lath and Rogers to help their conf...
Law McCabe is a Middlesbrough-born attacking midfielder who only just turned 17 in June having been at the club since the under-9s and was called up t...
@stircrazy Most key players being rested but O’Brien looks like he’s playing left-back with 2 left-backs on the bench in Engel and Coulson? Mayb...
@k-p-in-spain Sounds like Akpom may have been well below par last season 😉 Anyway, it appears one-season wonders for some reason are not famous ...
