Collis Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 A massive boost for us IMO.He has been the pivotal man in Boro's defence this season. He was also one of the only players in the Boro team with real height so I expect ES to be a real asset tomorrow night.We need to go at them and attack from the word go. A clean sheet early on is crucial as Boro are likely to become frustrated if we can can hold them and their fans will get restless. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/fa_cup/6349593.stm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collis Posted February 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 But the downside is Viduka is fitSo they will have two fatties up front as oppose to one. Viduka has not been in form for a while. I was disappointed in his performance against Arsenal, just hope he doesn't turn things round against us.

Guest Ron Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 Is Robert Huth not back for them? (It doesn't say anything on BBC Sport about it) In this case it's still a case of worrying, he's a damn good player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Dowd !!if it goes to pens he'll probably disallow them all after his display at the Emirates !!Phil Dowd was awful yesterday, i was sat in the wigan fans so could get into the emirates, that is a fantastic stadium and the noise when arsenal went in front immense shame its £4 a pie and no steak and kidney ones. back to Dowd it looked a clear penalty that he turned down as it was up that end. He was rather poor and very card happy i think arsenal had 5 booked and wigan 2 or 3 it wasnt really that dirty a game except fitz halls tackle and time wasting by both keepers, and can see why Jewell was having a go at him after the game.

Wasn't that great against us, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
