Hmmmm....goods and bads. Probably leaning more towards good.

Gutted to not see Godfrey after his pre-season. That's harsh. Surprised Jones is in. He hates Lafferty, but he starts ahead of giving Morris a chance. If we ever sign a striker, Morris should go out on loan. Otherwise he'll stagnate here.
 
Like the Arsenal game. Mane totally ripped Burton to shreds! He really does look good. Maybe he was worth that 32odd Million they paid. He would have been a fantastic fit at Arsenal.
 
"However, it was a night of mixed fortunes for the Magpies as Aleksandar Mitrovic, Dwight Gayle and Rolando Aarons all came off injured.

Perez, who was also injured and had his head bandaged, curled in a brilliant opener in first-half stoppage time."
 
Approaching half time in the EFL cup games tonight -
Accrington V Burnley 0-0 ET
Fulham V Boro 1-1. ET
Morcambe V Bournemouth 1-2
Sunderland V Shrewsbury 1-0

Didn't we lose to Shrewsbury a couple of seasons ago???
So Bournemouth and Sunderland go through, Burnley and Boro go to ET.

We're away to Everton in the next round again - drat, I would have liked another home game.
Let's hope AN will select some youngsters to prove themselves again.

Rhodes stays sat on the bench despite Boro needing a goal. Strange if they have no intention of getting rid of him. That's 2 teams he can't get into at Boro.
