Middlesbrough v Derby County Match Thread

George Saville best player on the pitch.

I said before the game it's crucial for him to play well to give us a chance to get it to the creatives..

He's really putting a shift in, I'd actually say Roberts, Whatmore and Tav have let him down a little.

 

[TeaCider]

Heart in mouth moment there.

 

[S7DiscoDown]

Worst HT teamtalk ever

Howson is a machine..... Give him a 4 year deal

Someone asked what we want for xmas in a thread? I would like to change me request to a player who can take a free kick from anywhere from 30yds out.

I can't think of a keeper even saving one recently. We (Britt) never hits the target.

I'm not having it that out of a squad of 20 odd he's the best? Has he ever been a set piece specialist at any of his clubs?

Saville scored a few for Millwall didn't he?

Few yellow cards for them now

 

[TeessideCleveland]

Farcical free kick between Roberts and McNair

 

[Sheriff_John_Bunnell_ret]

One from the training ground there

 

[TeaCider]

Derby are getting chances.

 

[Alvez_48]

Just tighten for 5 then press on again

 

[Kosovo]

Positive change by Derby causing us some problems.

 

[Sheriff_John_Bunnell_ret]

I'd be thinking about moving paddy into midfield if we had hall on the bench

 

[Oooo]

too open, need to tighten it up

 

[Alvez_48]

Dijksteel just pocketed Sibley

 

[Oooo]

Spence coming on, not sure for who

 

[Oooo]

Spence for Roberts, Johnson for Watmore

 

[Sheriff_John_Bunnell_ret]

We're getting tested here. Don't have the control we've had previously.

 

[Oooo]

Betenelli been solid and a great save earlier as well

 

[TeaCider]

Definitely feels like there's another goal in this, hope it's for us.

 

[Oooo]

great chance Saville!

The change has been like putting on your favourite pair of slippers
