* The Unofficial "Official" Middlesbrough v Luton Town [11/24] Match-Day Thread *

[Norman_Conquest]

Clarke with a wayward pass putting us into trouble.

 

[viv_andersons_nana]

Clarke playing us into trouble again.

 

[Chappy112]

It always feels like teams like Luton can get away with defending however they want just because they're a phyiscal side.

 

[r00fie1]

They like grabbing and giving our players a bear hug.

 

[proctors_perm]

I’m listening to Luton commentary calling Doak, Doh Ack,

 

[futureboy]

Glad the ref finally managed to spot a foul (by Burgzorg) having missed the last eight by Luton players.

 

[TheYorkshireTerrier]

Not sure what position Burgzorg thinks he’s playing today. Completely avoided the left side when they had the ball in the area.

Climbing all over our forwards, 2 arms around Doak and Latte Lath at times and the ref gives nothing.

Even the Luton commentator said he thought Burgzorg got the ball

 

[r00fie1]

Why TF do we mess around at the back?
They are leaving loads of empty space behind for us to exploit.

 

[Mysonpat.]

Missing Mcgree here, we just can't seem to gold in to the ball on forward areas.

Funny, Maddo thought it was a foul but I tend to agree with the Luton commentator.

 

[Blindschool]

Mowbray working with the Radio Tees team and just gave us a great insight on how the teams have set up.

Different class to Maddo

 

[Chappy112]

I know we're trying to hit them on the break but I think we're giving it away too easily or maybe going long too early instead of putting an extra pass in.

 

[Mysonpat.]

Luton are controlled the game at the minute with a high press and we can't get any control.

 

[BoroMart]

We’re losing the midfield battle here. Were outnumbered by the Luton 5 across the middle needs to be working the channels to force them back

 

[viv_andersons_nana]

We have been absolutely dreadful. We can’t handle them physically and our passing has been way, way off where it should be.

 

[Mysonpat.]

And a forward who can hold it up when playing into feet.

 

[Duffman]

I wish Carrick would see the value and importance of McGree to the starting 11

 

[proctors_perm]

Proper old school game this. I’m expecting Joe Jordan to gozz on his own shirt and the ball y get stuck in the mud
