We are lacking so much pace and invention

Good result that. We made the team top of the league and undefeated look very ordinary. Goal was a gift and they could of had a pen but otherwise they never looked like scoring.

Undefeated since opening day

Table looks OK.
Lets keep it going.
No defeat in 5.

Goalscorer/ poacher away from top 6 - 2
Dwight Gayle on loan in January would do for me .

This thread, Jeez. Sometimes I wonder if I'm the only person who appreciates good defending and solidity. 433! Have you learnt nothing from the Monk & Woodgate 'experiments'. "We're set up to not get beat" ...... well yeah 'cos it's the fundamental building block of every successful team. I'm absolutely loving the fact we completely snuffed out 2 form teams in the last 2 matches it shows just how much progress we've made.

ChrisTheRed, we are building a team. Maybe after Christmas we will be playing like... Bristol City / Reading (delete as required).

Hopefully not. Bristol City were poor.

I must be the only bloke who does not give a fig about 442 343 433 , I still do not understand what diamonds have to do with football, a hole is something to do with a spade, all I care about is us winning

Bristol City were as good as we allowed them to be.

I agree. But we should have aspirations to be better than that as there are a number of spoiling sides in the championship that will try the same on is. Starting with Cardiff.

Quite possibly, but I'm loving this at the moment. A confession: I am Tony Pulis in Boro Fan form!
