MATCHWATCH : Middlesbrough (a)

[McDermolenko]

Who do we fancy to get injured this time around?

[Millsy]

I think Reading is some strange glitch in the matrix.

Isn't Carroll normally injured every 5 minutes? Yet now it's pretty much everyone but him.

Either that or he's some sort of sorcerer who has sucked the health of all other players to keep him fit.

Yeah I'm going with that, the first theory is a little far fetched.

The manager

[URZZZZ]

Picking a team might be tricky


....................Southwood
Ashcroft, Laurent, Holmes, Bristow
..............Rinomhota, Bashiru
Camara..........., Swift, .............Hoilett
..........................Carroll

Andersson, Stickland, Drinkwater, Puscas, Clarke, Ehibhatiomhan, Osorio

Just don’t think we can afford to use a flat back four again with those two FB’s. We may not have many options but ultimately it’s only swapping one academy player out for another at this stage anyway

I reckon Hoilett could do a job as a wingback temporarily if needs must. And I’d stick Clarke/Puscas up top with Carroll from the start. Midfield much of a muchness at the moment but I’d probably agree with Drinkwater on the bench as he’s so slow on the ball

I agree, but we don’t have enough centre backs for 2 let alone 3 either.

Any chance at all of any of the injured/unavailable back? Joao must be near. Moore and Ejaria seem to have gone AWOL. Think they’ll prob have to tape a few up and tell them to get on with it.

Hope so as that team above looks wretched

Ejaria struggling with covid. Moore allegedly absent for uncaptainly behaviour.

The more we rush players straight back into the first team without youth team warm ups and sub appearances the more breakdowns we'll have.

Not asking them to start and play 90mins. Ideally see them on the bench though

[blythspartan]

I now want Nuno Espírito Santo

This Moore thing has been nowhere on Twitter from the ITK brigade. Unless somewhere on here posts some substance or a link from somewhere its b0llocks. Moore has been injured for one thing and may have got covid after.

I trust Spizz to not be making it up. His info could be wrong of course, depending on where it came from.

[Once upon a time .]

I am not yet convinced that Holmes has presently got what it takes to be a CB in this league , but at the moment it appears he is all we have got . At the moment does it matter too much whose wearing the shirts , the biggest problem is the tactics and the attitude .
Just hope Carroll stays fit .

His info is from a so.id source I believe. I don’t doubt what is being said here

[Millsy]

Once I’ve fully lost trust in a manager I want him out asap so hope for big defeats to catalyse exit, so I’d normally hope we get thumped.

But we’re dangerously close to relegation so… bollocks not sure what I even want to happen here. Obviously a win, but an unconvincing one. Perhaps a couple of red cards for Boro and us scraping through on a deflected goal.

Nah… let’s have a big convincing win.

Urgh.

Doesn`t matter, highly likely to be his last game or us.

I've not been on here for a while but weren't the Scorpions allegedly involved in an incident where they chased a disability bus down the A33?
