* The Unofficial “Official” Boro v Leicester City [Feb 2024] Match-Day Thread *

We defended very well in that game. I wouldn't be against 5 at the back for a while to get the team back on a more solid footing. It certainly helps engel and Clark for that matter.

Silvera and Azaz exceptional today. The whole team came away with credit.

It wouldbe nice to see some apologies frm those criticising Carricks team selection today. Seems he knows a thing or two about football, who knew?

Was going to say this, seems his selections were ok after all!
 
And the good thing is we can start to look at the League again. 7 points off the playoffs with a game in hand. Just need to play all our games away from home from now on. (y)
 
Couple of observations ....

1. We are so much better when teams take the game to us, rather than us having to break another team down - it suits the players we currently have / are available

2. Did you see Carrick at the end of the match - for a bloke who shows no emotion, a beaming smile, bouncing over to the fans and the three "punch" salutes that Southgate used to do as captain. Have no doubt, the bloke is fully bought in to what we're trying to do

He mentions being sucked into a fist pump by the away support in his post match interview.
