I didn't say anything yesterday as I didn't want to jinx last night, and it may still come back to bite me, but what on earth are Middlesborough playing at with their recruitment?! Anyone that's watched anything of them this season can see what they've got but also what they're desperately in need of and yet, with a load of money in their pockets, they went out and got lots more of what they've already got and nothing of what they need.

Spot on. But in Ryan Giles I think that was a quality signing. His finish last night was sublime.

Mental that they haven't signed defenders, the GK will be a good signing for them and Giles is a good attacking fullback but he can't defend!!

Scoring goals hasn't been an issue for them but conceding has been

I'm a huge fan of Azaz but Neil totally shut him down last night - he had no space to get any success due to Neil

How ****ing good is Dan Neil's season turning out to be...

Has to be a massive priority to give him the contract he has deserved as soon as possible.

When we play I only really focus on our own players. I must admit I didn't even really notice Azaz was playing.

The plaudits all went to Le Fee last night...and rightly so....But Dan Neil is another level these days... We should build a team around this lad. He is so important to our club.

I agree. They always make chances when I've seen them, and while another forward might score more of them, they do look brittle at the back.

Strange, but they could beat anyone. Hopefully the beat Sheff utd on the weekend!

that clearly showed on Carricks face at the end of the game...He looked shot to pieces.
 
Based on the fact he’s currently being played out of position and yet still putting in MOTM performances and clearly can see he’s a step above, Enzo Lé Fee is easily the best signing in the championship this season.

hands down.

He looks as if he is in the wrong division.

And the extra benefit from last night's game is that teams and players will have watched and maybe thought they'd have to concentrate on him a bit. Champion, he can handle that, and we have other very gifted, technical and intelligent players in midfield who might get more space.
