How the hell are Preston 7 points ahead of us

This has definitely been the most frustrating season I can remember at the Riverside.

We play great football at times but can’t finish teams off. We played Preston off the park on Wednesday and got nothing it really did encapsulate much of the season.

Injuries have been off the scale as well. I just really want the season to end and the new one to begins.

Hopefully the manager commits to the club and we invest appropriately in the summer.

What are our strengths, tippy tappy the ball about without having any real shots on target..

Possession doesn't win games. goals do... we need to address this problem for next season.

Shocking Middlesbrough goal conversion revealed after Preston​

After the game last night, journalist Dominic Shaw shone a light on Boro’s inability to find the back of the net, despite their impressive shots statistics.

In the last three games (two losses and a draw), Boro have had 51 shots, but only 12 of those have been on target and only three have been converted, making for a shot conversion rate of 5.88%.

My point, we don’t mix it up enough. We constantly try to play out from the back or look to thread balls through even when we don’t have the players to do that or the situation doesn’t allow. To use a cricket analogy it’s our Bazball!

Completely agree with you, we don't adapt to the team we are playing with tactics or formation....
