* The Unofficial "Official" Boro v Preston [02/24] Match-Day Thread *

[Colgates_shaving_foam]

You make your own luck. We are weak defensively and don’t offer enough of a threat even with lots of possession.

Form is dropping off a cliff like at the start of the season.

Howey! How have Preston 'made their own luck' in this game?

 

[Oooo]

Can't even begin to describe how infuriating it is to me that our stats are consistently like 11 shots, 2 on target, got a goal in this case but it's often no goals, while our opponents are often like 3 shots, 2 on target, 2 goals. Sh*t's f*cking annoying.

Because we dont have a striker

We made it for them, as usual.

 

[Tryasize10]

He needs to pull Ayling. Sorry but like now

 

[TeessideCleveland]

Great ball out from Clark.

Him and Glover seem to have a rock a game
Unfortunately tonight both have cost a goal

 

[Jedi boro]

It’s official we’re cursed

 

[changingman]

Poor in transition again but that ball from Clarke is suicidal. Square pass to a player facing his goal with two opposition players touch tight.

 

[parmoboy]

Because we dont have a striker

We do though, he's being played on the wing.

 

[Uncle_Albert]

Both goals have come about from needlessly risky balls out of defence from our centre halves.

It’s why I’d like to see McNair playing, he is miles more comfortable on the ball

 

[BillinghamLad]

Good that Azaz is willing to shoot…nobody else wants to!

 

[gravy173]

Ayling is fooking rubbish

 

[BoroMad87]

Dijksteel for ayling, hoppe or silvera for Greenwood maybe?

 

[homesickblues]

Have we missed the steadying influence of Paddy McNair. We had a decent defense last season with him and Fry.

 

[Boro_Interlinked]

Silvera on to score a backy

 

[Alzi]

Howey! How have Preston 'made their own luck' in this game?

We have made Preston’s luck for them by crap defending. That’s nothing to do with misfortune, just poor play. Again.

 

[Jedi boro]

Greenwood got silvera

Wows that’s a big call

 

[Otto42]

Greenwood’s been poor tonight

 

[Laughing]

You would have thought forss would now play through the middle, but no.

 

[BoroMad87]

Or silvera and push Forss up top?

 

[Oooo]

We do though, he's being played on the wing.

We need him on the wing as well. It was fatal not getting a striker in the transfer window
