Match Day Thread Middlesbrough v Hull City

[GLP]

good little flick to put Gestede in tbh but the marking on him was none existent

For a change?

 

[Blaknamberblood]

Considering we have some big lads in the central back 3, we are still unable to prevent a big forward winning everything in the air, i wonder if at some stage they take them lead studs out ffs.

 

[pierredelafranchesca]

Adkins got credit for the change in formation and approach against Forest, I suspect the opposite will be true today, not sure why the switch to 3-5-2, i'd have stuck with 4-2-3-1 even if it meant playing Dio on one flank

 

[spesupersydera]

Just what the **** do we do in training?

Commentary 'We switched off'

Far post header.

****e.

''The thing that bothers me is that we train well Monday-Friday and play a certain way, but when the bell rings we play a different way''

Chris Coleman - 2 days ago, it's what poor teams at the bottom do.

FFS that says it all, Gestedes second league goal of the season !!!

Hardly prolific.

Could be in a few hours saying genius move from Adkins, to me suddenly changing formation and team smacks of a bit of panicking and hoping for the best... time will tell of course

it's nigel adkins
he doesn't know anything he does

oh and burton 1 up

Gestede's ****e.

But, bar the cup win, we always struggle up there.

2 strikers 100 yards apart and 3 centre midfielders who couldn't fight their way out of a paper bag , joke from Adkins this

Tbf to Adkins i can see what he trying to do, he has 2 wingers injured, the third isnt obviously fit, and he is trying to create width with the wing backs, alas the quality he is trying to play it with isn`t great

When I saw the XI I assumed Hector was Centre mid. That would made more sense in my eyes.

Too many words 'blood - Atkins is trying, and failing, to polish a turd.

Needs Meyler as one of the 3 ,even out of form they are too soft them 3 ,

birmingham 1 down

I did say before kick off our midfield looked light, and to add insult to injury Bolton beating Sunderland

 

[GLP]

I saw the starting 11 and saw a defeat.

Brentford beating Birmingham 1-0

 

[Amin Arrears]

Is there a video?

Other teams in and around the bottom 3 showing more stomach for the fight.
