Coulson and Spence out of starting 11

Spence not even a named sub, hmmm

looks like my post was right then

let’s hope “experience” works then.

Team for today.

Disappointing that Johnson starts ahead of Coulson, and Spence not even on the bench.

Only changes I wanted to see were Morrison coming into the side for Nmecha, and Tav coming back into the midfield, with McNair dropping back into the defence. This is what was working for us earlier in the season.

Really feels like Woodgate has completely lost his way and is now just making it up as he goes along.

Hope to be proven wrong though and we get 3 points today.

Youngsters getting the blame.

 

[dooderooni]

Zorro, any chance you could use the Matchday thread so that we can see if the concept works?

 

[lostinyorkshire]

Is Morrison playing wide?

Can only think Coulson is not 100%

 

[Yearbyred]

It may work, but it’ll be more luck than judgement.

His constant changing of players and formations isn’t a sign of the master tactician, more of someone who doesn’t know what he’s doing.

Will do dood

Two of the best players for us this season major part of the turnaround after xmas. Ridiculous to drop spence hes so much better than any other fullback at the club

The team selection is simply baffling.

 

[FabioPorkpie]

We turned our season around on the back of two fearless, attacking fullbacks and Howson turning in cracking displays at centre back.
We’ve abandoned that and look every bit as rubbish as we did early in the season.
looks like injuries meant Woodgate completely fluked those wins with an enforced team selection afterall. 1 point from the bottom 3 teams

It worked well with Coulson, Spence and Tav playing.

Now they are all dropped and we are badly struggling.

Just play Fletcher up front on his own, and allow wings backs and some of the midfield to quickly support him.

Reminds me of Southgates last days when he started making strange decisions.

He's making it up as he goes along.

God knows what the lineup will be vs Leeds.

He'll probably bring Nmecha back into the side

Coulson actually looked like a footballer when he came on. A rare attribute for a Boro player.

Chopping and changing and not knowing your best team minds me of Monk.
