Starting to hate this team. Worst team since woodgate.
I can see a lot of similarities with the Woodgate side to be fair. Mostly younger lads, playing out the back, weak defensively, losing.

And Sammy Silvera might turn into Terry Cochrane.It would yes but there’s still time, Latte Lath may turn into a goal machine next week.
Second goal was complete fluke from themDid you miss the part where Clarke gifted them the ball to make it 2-1?
Really? At least we had Cloughy banging in 40 goals a seasonJust got a message from my old man…says this Boro is like the one he supported for most of the mid 50’s to mid 60’s…ouch lol
Not sure that Rav will be there, he had so much potential I think a premier league club may come calling and I really think there is a good chance McGree will go he can play at a higher level than the championship.Van Der Berg, Dieng, Forss, Azaz, McGree, Lenihan, Howson and Smith all quality players who should hopefully be playing next season

Hes a million times worseHe’s an improvement on Fry!
We are a ‘nearly’ team at the moment and seem to get badly punished for every mistake.No idea how we’ve managed to lose that. Battered them for 85 mins. A mishit first shot that sneaked in and a deflected shot that fell for a tap in other than that we gobbled up the Preston .
I’ll get the negatives out the way first:
1 - glover
2 - RB is a problem whomever is there
3 - Hackney injury
4 - can’t keep a cleansheet
5 - desperate need of a striker
Positives are needed after that kick in the teeth of a result and there are some.
1 - Clarke had his best game in a Boro shirt, brilliant on the ball won everything off the ball
2 - decent partnership with rav
3 - Hackney and Howson dominate the middle
4 - Hackney was back to his best (hope that’s not a bad injury)
5 - McGree was excellent
6 - Azaz had his best game in a Boro shirt
7 - this team are 3-4 players away from being superb. If we had Riise tonight we would have won 5-0 to be honest
It was Rav’s sloppy pass that led to Preston’s first goal. If you’re calling one out then call them all out. Or just accept that sometimes, passes go awry. I’d much, much rather be watching this Boro team every week than that Preston one. Jesus wept they were absolutely abysmal. One stupid goalkeeping error and a wild deflection. We absolutely dominated them from start to finish. We just lack a cutting edge. I can’t believe we’ve lost that game tbh. I’d be tempted to take it to The Hague if I was Carrick, a crime of that magnitude. Unbelievable.Was his awful pass that led to it. I’m sick of our lazy half hearted stupid passes.
Pass the ball with conviction. Absolutely winds me up
Nothing like that team. We are playing much better box to box than Woodgate team didI can see a lot of similarities with the Woodgate side to be fair. Mostly younger lads, playing out the back, weak defensively, losing.

Sign two quality forwards and keep lathe fit and we will batter teams next seasonIt was Rav’s sloppy pass that led to Preston’s first goal. If you’re calling one out then call them all out.

Because Carrick has agreed to work with the players he’s got. He’s not going to spit his dummy out and say I’ve got no bloody strikers. That’s not his way.All I hear is Carricks words as the transfer window closed.
"We have plenty of options up top"
Well here is the news. We have nothing up top. Bit like our recruitment team.
Season is going down the pan big style.
Agree too. Clarke’s got loads of stick, but he’s a proper solid defender an upgrade on Fry. First goal keeper should put his cap on it, second unlucky with the deflection. Even then with a more clinical edge we should have won. Greenwood was poor, but what’s the point of taking him off and bringing on Sammy?No idea how we’ve managed to lose that.

Looks like they have ambition, both scored.Ipswich signed two strikers in the window, Moore and Al-Hamadi. They won 4.0 away.
