I think people are tearing into the same players across multiple threads to be fair. It's not all of them. Far from it.Does anyone on here actually like any of our players at this point? You wouldn’t think so. Honestly, just constantly tearing in to players across about 20 different threads. Some peoples preoccupation with relentlessly slating specific players is just weird.

There is a dearth of quality across the entire squad. There's only about 3 players I wouldn't be looking to replace. We have a squad of average championship players and more bottom end players than top. Not sure we've got anyone that would get in Leicester, Southampton or Leeds teams.Does anyone on here actually like any of our players at this point? You wouldn’t think so.

And why are multiple threads even needed in the first place? Same people just lining up, falling over themselves to say the same exact sh*t about the same players constantly.I think people are tearing into the same players across multiple threads to be fair. It's not all of them. Far from it.
What do you think the problem is then? Are they all superstars and we are just really unlucky?And why are multiple threads even needed in the first place? Same people just lining up, falling over themselves to say the same exact sh*t about the same players constantly.
Loads of the players have variously had it on here this season as well, players like Silvera, Barlaser, Rogers, Engel, Greenwood, Crooks, Fry, Glover.
Nobody seems to hate Boro players more than Boro fans. Not a new trend either.
I think you’ll find other boards fans are exactly the same about their own players. It’s not an exclusive thing by us - far from itAnd why are multiple threads even needed in the first place?

Whoever our right back is has Jones or Forss tracking back. That makes a huge difference.
Engel has had no support all season. He's in an impossible situation.
Exactly. Giles was also left with a lack of support, which perhaps exposed him too often.It was the same last season and it’s just the way we set up.
I think it was Obrien who should have been supporting / covering for him more yesterday.
I do agree he has had no support but look at that yesterday. He was absolutely oblivious as to where their wide lad was on at least a couple of occasions. It’s one man. One lead to a goal and the other should have as well. He really is poor.Whoever our right back is has Jones or Forss tracking back. That makes a huge difference.

Quite simply the worst left back I’ve seen in many a year wearing a Boro shirt - not his fault but he’s just out of his depth at this level
Engel’s having a poor run, but he has had some decent games this season. Give the lad a chance, we paid buttons for him and he’s in his first season in a big league.
We can very well afford to do more but Gibsons hell bent on sustainability nowadays and isn't going for it like we once didCompletely agree. Engel played 80 minutes in the 4 nil win vs Sunderland, 70 odd minutes of the 1 nil win over Chelsea, 90 mins in the wins vs West Brom and Leicester...
It's been explained again and again on here this season, I don't really get how some people still don't understand it. We're buying young players and trying to develop them. That means they won't be perfect. They will go through bad patches. We can't afford to do anything else.
