I’m really excited and hope England do well. However I do wish that some England fans (and the media) would lower their expectations somewhat. From what I see and hear it feels like some people believe it’s “ours to lose” and Gareth will inevitably mess it up. Reality is that you have...

Coburn is fine and offers something different to LL. However, even with both in the squad we need at least 1 more striker as this season proved, as there is no guarantee they will stay fit and the championship is relentless for games. Lost count of the number of games we played this season...

I think if Latte Lath would have had Akpom behind him in the number 10 role for a full season (and remained fit) then he would have hit 20 goals easily. Our final ball and cutting edge in the final third this season has not been on the same level as last season and I think because of that it’s...

Just been announced on the boro instagram page which I find a bit weird. Would we normally announce that 2 players won’t play again this season? Kind of makes me think that we may not see them both again in a boro shirt? Maybe I’m reading too much into it.

Jimmy’s away at City for me as well. It was pretty far out, a 2 step run up, and a classic in off the bar which always makes it look better. It was an insane strike! As mentioned above, I also can’t believe it’s not talked about more.

Bellingham is just on another level. We have to build this team around him. We know he will be targeted by anyone we play, so even if that does happen it should open up the game for other players (Saka, Foden etc) to have a bit more freedom. Frightening how much talent we have in attacking...

Been trying to get hold of one of the Juninho ones for years. If anyone is looking to sell then I would always be interested.

Winning 0-3 at Highbury that year when I think we were horribly out of form and were fighting relegation with Venebles in charge? No one saw that coming.

4-1 defeat unfortunately

No matter how much their squad cost and the stature of their players, I don’t think you can deny that we were just awful in that half. Tactically all over the place, basic errors at the back and no real game plan when we have the ball. Really, really poor half.

Been a poor start. 2 really soft goals to be honest. Could be a blood bath now I fear.

Madri had zero presence in Madrid which confused some Spanish friends when they went to the UK and saw this brand absolutely everywhere. Guess it’s the same as Foster’s and Australia.

I think a lot will hinge on whether Chelsea get an early goal. If they get one in the first 10 or 15 mins it changes everything unfortunately. Their tales will be up, their players will be more relaxed and playing under less pressure and I think they go on to batter us. However, if we can hold...

Generally any Irish pub will have it on mate. Two absolute certainties are The James Joyce near Retiró Park or the Irish Rover, which is not too far from the Bernabéu. Let me know if you need any other recco’s. 👍

Looks awesome, great idea! Shameless plug to anyone looking to sell the Errea Brazil/Boro Juninho shirt then I would be very interested! Literally the missing one from my collection!
