Middlesbrough have the best home defensive record in the league, having only conceded 6 goals in 17 matches. No team has scored more than one goal against them. Either 0-0 or 1-1.
Right time to forget about membership schemes, concessions, zonal pricing, etc Lads need our support C'mon City !!!!
A bold move if that happens. Hope it pays off, because there will be a lot of toys thrown out of prams if it doesn't.
Good move if true. Hernandez isn't doing it at present and Aluko is one of the best strikers in the league, who apart from on Tuesday despite the goal, has looked good and threatening in all his recent appearances.
I think Clucas will be having a poor game and should be brought off for Akpom in the 63rd minute. I think Diame will be having a poor game and should be brough off for Aluko/Hernandez/Powell/Snodgrass (whoever is on the bench) in the 67th minute. I think Elmo will probably be crap so we should bring him off for Aluko/Hernandez/Powell/Snograss (whoever is on the bench) in the 67th minute. Just getting this out there now so that my criticism of Bruce and his management (or lack of) will be accepted by Roo.
I though of putting a 3-5-2 in the OP but couldnt get Snodgrass in!! He's been our best player last few games. I dont see how he fits into a 3-5-2. So i dont see it happening.
Snodgrass has got plenty of bite in him, I think he'd be fine in 3-5-2... -----------McGregor ----Maguire Dawson Davies Odubajo--------------------Robertson --Snodgrass Livermore Clucas ------------Diame -----------Hernandez Though it's unlikely, particularly if it's true that Aluko is in for Hernandez.
Well anyone can write his name in but its not his position at all. Seems crazy to drop Hernandez when he's off on International duty soon. I'd rather play him and have a fake injury so he doesnt go away. Didnt Brucey play Aluko up top when we thought we would get stuffed against Sunland on boxing Day?? He rates him a lot more than i do. Maybe its for Diame?
I'd drop Diame. 352 has to be used IMO. The current tactics seriously aren't working. That one, at this level, absolutely did. McGregor Dawson Davies Maguire Odubajo Hayden Livermore Clucas Robertson Snodgrass Hernandez/Akpom Striker can easily be changed for me, neither of them are above the other on recent form.
Is anyone else gutted about this been on a Friday night?? Worra bag of ****. 8 of us down for this one on a Satdee at 3pm. None of us now.
