* The Unofficial "Official" "Michael Carrick`s" Boro v Preston. Match-Day thread *

Im expecting same old boro. Missing chances, being over run in midfield, and still dodgy defending from set pieces. Cant change our flaws in one week. Be happy with a point and a uplifting display after trashing we got last time.
 
Would love to see Muniz in - Watmore out would be a real blow. Can’t play Jones as a wing back in a five - that’s now a massive no no. I expect it to be 4-3-3 maybe

Steffen
Smith Fry Lenahan Giles
McGree Howson Hackney
Jones Akpom Muniz
 
Having a coffee in Fishergate, waiting for the rain to ease before walking up to Deepdale, and playing a few rounds of "guess whether the gang of lads walking past will have Boro or Lancs accents".

I'm 4 from 5 so far.
 
Being pedantic, I'd go with 4-1-3-2. Puts a lot of pressure on Howson, but should be good going forward. Not sure what Dijksteel did to end up behind Smith.

I am struggling to see anything but 4 4 2, with maybe a 4 3 1 2 or a 4 2 2 2 or.... Hmm I have no idea. I'll stick with my 4 4 2. It naturally places Jones out wide, though I would like to see him play much more narrow given he likes crosses about as much as dracula.
 
Does anybody know when the half season video pass becomes available? I would assume about halfway through the season. I didn't buy a season video pass at the begining of the season and a tenner a go is quite expensive, not withstanding the free flowing, entertaining nature of our games!
