We’d have lost that last year

I think we did have a slight edge, on the other hand Boro had some good headed opportunities and could have pinched it.

I thought we were the strongest in the last 20 minutes which says a lot about our fitness as Boro are going to be strong there too.

Spot on. Nailed it.
 
Apart from set pieces Boro had zero attacking threat.

We've just come up against the biggest, ugliest, hardest defense in the league and competed. Last year 2 goal defeat.

Bit of luck and we'd have won it.

IBWT.
Spot on Davy.<ok>

Wolves 2016/17 - Had a foreign manager and then replaced him with a British manger and finished 15th. Then brought in an a foreign manager with no championship experience. 2017/18 they finished 1st playing the best football.

Cardiff - 2016/17 - Replaced their manager with an experienced championship manager not know for his football style. 2017/18 they finished 2nd playing effective football.



Leeds 2017/18 - Had a foreign manager and then replaced him with a British manger and finished 13th. 2018/19 Then brought in an a foreign manager with no championship experience currently playing the best football.

Cardiff - Replaced their manager with an experienced championship manager not know for his football style. 2018/19 Currently playing effective football.

Guilty M'Lord, but that's what frustration does for you.
Me too I’d have took him and I still would over Heckingbottom or Thomas but now I’ve had a taste of Bielsa they can keep him.

Assombalonga built like a heavyweight boxer, goes down at every opportunity, you can see they are going to rely on set pieces and height.

We might have just screwed their season, Villa, Brentford, WBA and Swansea will all be watching how we defended against those giants and what we did well and they might try a rinse and repeat job.

managed to get a stream back up and must say i will take the draw no problem.boro are such a boring and slow side but they will be hard to beat this season.
we missed pablo tonight and we looked too slow and lacking in pace once again.Saiz is starting to annoy me why does he have to keep taking a touch it's as if he is nervous.

Interesting we missed Pablo (and would miss Saiz) so that's who Bielsa looks to have been most interested in replacing with Issy rather than a centre half. Still not sure who's best option for covering Kalvin though.
 
Why, what did he do wrong
He come over a bit anti Leeds I thought, might be just me reading more into it but the Sky commentary team are biased, never really jumped on that bandwagon before but it was evident tonight.

Douglas should have been red they said, fair enough, Ayala however hardly a word said.
