* The Unofficial "Official" Boro v Swansea City [04/24] Match Day Thread *

Dieng 6 - no saves to make, dropped a cross
Ayling 7 - worked up and down, good pro
Howson 7 - played with a cigar in his gob
Clarke 7 - easy day at the office
Thomas 6 - his best performance so far
Barlaser 6 - a few dodgy dodgy moments
O’brein 7 - worked hard
Jones 6 - a danger without anything coming off
Azaz 6 - needs to get involved more
Greenwood 5 - usual effort……usual quality
Lath 8 - worked hard, showed good moments of quality

Subs 6 all round - nobody did anything good or bad

I’d actually give Thomas a 7 today. Won some important headers back post and showed bits of quality with his first touch at times. Definetly his best game.

I’d give him a 7 second half definitely, thought first 30 mins he was caught chasing the ball too high and caught with a bad body position.

Either way 6 or 7, it’s miles better than his previous performances

yeah, left nothing in the tank and showed us his engine
 
Just back. There was a lot of rubish on the pitch today! Thought Aying, Clarke and Lathe had good games but generally a boring game to watch, still a win is a win

I agree. Full sweep of 7s across the back line.

Would have given Azaz a 7 as well. Agree with the comment that he needs to be involved more but he showed a few bits of quality today.

Jones, Greenwood and Barlaser are the only players I wouldn't have scored a 7 today who I thought all were below par and apart from that it was a pretty solid team performance without being spectacular
 
Azaz was better in second half but his refusal to tackle alongside Barlaser and often O’Brian is concerning when we play a better team.

Anyone who thinks Jones was a 7 must have been drunk. He was absolutely shocking today. He hardly tracked back and going forward he offered nothing. His touch was so heavy also. I would have taken him off at HT.

I'm not sure what was wrong with him today but he looked very reluctant to try and beat a man. He had quite a few opportunities to drive their LB and try get to the by line. But he just kept.passing backwards.

Yeah I’m unsure what was wrong with him today. Seemed disinterested. Maybe carrying a knock but we need him confident and flying for the next 3 games.
 
Another clean sheet and a win can't ask for much more than that, I know he didn't have a lot to do but I just love how aggressive Matt Clarke plays the game, proper defender!

All games are huge now!
They’re not, we aren’t making the play offs, I’ll take finishing above Coventry despite them spending twice what we did
 
They are to me as whether or not we get in there, we will have a big say on outcomes for other teams and its important we finish on a high right until the final kick

Oh we shouldn’t give up but I’ve no doubt it’s gone already. But yes it’s important to work hard and honest and try and win every remaining game and start next season on a positive for a change
