Rotherham friendly

[Caesium137]

No tav tonight
Not even on bench?

Him and Watmore were 'rested for protection' last time out, make of that what you want. Sounds like slightly injured and not willing to risk him.

Missing Bola, Tavernier, Browne, Fisher, Ameobi, Coulson, Peltier, and Ikpeazu is clearly being protected. Leaves us really really thin with 7 players injured and one carrying a knock. Need signing and fast

Crooks and Lumley the only new players in starting line up.

Yeah it's an awful bare bones squad as it is without losing that lot. Two of the players in the squad tonight aren't even ours are they?

1-0 to Boro. Paddy McNair direct free kick in off post

aaaaaand another injury, Isiah Jones withdrawn on 27 mins, we've got a 19 year old CB playing at LWB now

60 mins: Akpom should double #Boro's lead. falls to him kindly in the six-yard box but he swings a volley and somehow misses the target. Just not dropped for him this summer, or his Boro career as a whole for that matter

 

[Redwurzel]

Ikpeazu is playing, not injured.

Looking through some of my stats today Akpom came on for Arsenal as a 83rd minute sub in our 2-0 FAC 4th round defeat under Karanka, didn't realise that

 

[BoroMart]

Ikpeazu is playing, not injured.

He didn't start was the point, i.e. he was being wrapped in cotton wool because he took a hefty whack last game

 

[Boro_Legend]

Bamba impressed tonight.
