* The Unofficial “Official” Boro v Stoke [03/24] Match-Day Thread *

We have players on the bench better than those playing, Dijksteel, Engel and Azaz. Or have they disintegrated too?

Azaz has popped up with a couple of goals, but has also gone missing for long periods in games, notably last week against his former employers where he was very poor.

The other two you mentioned have had promising spells, but also with a tendency towards clangers.
 
And to think we sold another two of our most productive players in January too.
Is this one of those "darkest before the dawn" moments or are we actually looking at a cut price Boro aiming to survive season after season?
Gibson is going to have to deliver with the signings this summer if he wants a full ground
 
We won’t be relegated
I mean we shouldn't be anywhere near it. Yet we are 'sleep walking' into the mix. We can't keep a clean sheet or score. That's not an ideal combination.

Still plenty of teams down near the bottom. Yet QPR / Millwall and Huddersfield have all picked up recently. I'd be amazed if this side has the bottle for a relegation battle.

I doubt we will go down. Yet not sure where you'd say 'that's 3 points'. Lose today and at QPR and it will be getting more 'squeeky' in the bum department.
 
We really do not have the quality of players for Dieng to play out from the back. Barlaser, Thomas and Clarke are just far too ponderous.

Thomas is having an absolutely terrible game.

Greenwood completely anonymous.

O'Brien and Barlaser unable to get any control in midfield.

Even my favourite player Forss is very poor today.
