* The Unofficial "Official" Leeds United v Middlesbrough [12/24] Match-Day Thread "

Tbf we are playing one of the best sides in the league away. It shows where we are at, battling for fifth or sixth. We can compete with Burnley, Sheffield Utd and Leeds if we are at our very best and they are a bit off it, but all three are better than us if we are honest.

Emotion of the game getting to people’s logical thinking. This was always a hard game arguably the hardest game of the season. We won’t get a more difficult one frankly. To draw conclusions from this particular match doesn’t make sense but then again this is Boro fans talking and we are either brilliant or not good enough depending on the fixture.

Its about your expectations, there run says we won't win and its gonna be tough

But We aren't good enough to go to Leeds with Hackney and barlaser midfield and attempt to compete. They are always wrong side and constantly give the ball away.

Not just today but the fact we don't use our left side means we're hampered against good teams.

Who is Barlassor?

Some crazy comments on here, McGree and Hackney have been written completely off after 45 minutes.
 
With Azaz, McGree and Barlaser all playing we have one of the most physically weak, powderpuff midfields ever to take the field, couple that with a bang off form hackney and we’re lucky only to be 1 down, we’re not laying a glove on them when they have the ball
 
We look slower than them everywhere. Our passing is really sloppy and we're not concentrating. We're still in it so hopefully an early goal will shift the momentum but I'm more worried we're going to give away a second before any changes are made though.

It’s even more apparent when McGree plays as he doesn’t stay on the left. Keeps popping up on the right hand side or in the middle. I wonder if that’s why he’s in and out of the side, aside from the daft injuries he picks up of course.
 
Getting beat all over the pitch, we need at least 3 new players to compete against the likes of Leeds. Clark, Barlaser and Hackney just to slow and not aggressive enough.

Agree . They look tough and get stuck straight in when they lose the ball . Muscling us off the ball
