old_eastender Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 4 minutes ago, Ivorguy said: Nige is clearly trying to establish a way of playing and to do so with a regular side. We all know we need a centre forward but at moment Martin is the best we’ve got for that role in Nige’s view. Wells is not the type of centre forward Nige wants. He is also not a prolific goal scorer - av of 10 in last five seasons. Interesting to see if Janneh makes an appearance. My guess he will. Take out the question of the centre forward, and, IMO, this has the makings of a decent Championship side, give it a few seasons and it could be a really good side. We don’t know with Kalas what has gone on behind the scenes. I trust Nige’s judgment. I agree with you but the last manager we had with an established way of playing and regular side was Cotts, and we know what happened to him... Quote Link to comment

RedRock Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 Confident of victory here. Under the previous recent regimes this ground was always a ‘pick me up’. Comfortable 4-0. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

wendyredredrobin Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 You can criticise the manager's team selection as much as you like, but you could criticise any selection he makes because he has buggar all to select from. Quote Link to comment

But if you haven’t got a bit of optimism what’s the point. You on here now just to moan and say how shit we are No I'm not optimistic, with that team against this opposition. And where did I say we are "shit"? I was offering a different opinion to the one that said we've chosen a good counter attacking line-up. 1 Quote Link to comment

The Bard Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 FFS what is the matter with everyone. Stop wetting the bed over a team selection with, er, one change after we drew 2 games when we conceded right at the end. Seriously what did you actually expect?? 3 Quote Link to comment

Agree, and we’ll get more from Palmer playing that role than in a wider, direct replacement for ODowda role Quote Link to comment

ashton_fan Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 Boro fans worried that with wide players Watmore and Tavernier both injured they will struggle going forward and be reliant on set pieces for goals, also apparently a very weak bench Quote Link to comment
