I reckon the chance of playing Chelsea in a semi final might be quite attractive to some players. Being on the new Marco Branca I say.
-
Carrick and Scott have both intimated that we have deals ready. Carrick said in his MFC interview they will strengthen the squad. He also said he will rotate between Saturday and Tuesday next week. I'm expecting a couple through the door this week.

BORO v Coventry City 1-3 (Coburn)

What rubbish. Take a break, it's not even funny. I know you think it is, but it's really not. -
BORO v Coventry City 1-3 (Coburn)
edinboro replied to marvin's topic in Match Day Threads 2023/24 Season
I'm sure it's been mentioned but the not giving the foul on Engel for their 2nd and pretty much every decision after that cost us today. For once I don't think we can blame the players or manager. The ref and his mates handed that to Coventry. I hope they are happy with their days work. -
Based on that list I'm thinking one of the right backs must be nearly done. And the striker from the US would fit the Rav model - beating other teams by offering first team role.
-
I'm confident Scott has deals lined up and hopefully a lot of players in the directors box tomorrow.
-
I cannot believe how few transfer rumours there are. Is this the least gossipy transfer window ever?
-
I reckon McNair is gone. Never gets mentioned. Back spasms wouldn't last this long would they? Would make sense of us being linked with centre halves. I wonder if Scott has another Rav liked up. That would be very nice.
-
I'm thinking the gossip is soooo quiet that we have deals done and ready. It's a shame the FA don't work first Jan as we could have them in for Coventry. However I expect new players in the line up against Villa and helping us beat Chelsea.

Boro v WBA 1-0 (Rogers)
edinboro replied to Denzel Zanzibar's topic in Match Day Threads 2023/24 Season
We don't do draws. I think we will just try to attack our way to a win. My best guess at the starters is Glover Dijksteel Fry Rav Engel Howson Barlaser Silvera. Greenwood Bangura Kavanagh Jones McCabe Clarke Nkrumah Coulson Cartwright Gilbert McGree Hackney -
I think Scott will put a name in front of Gibson and say, 'he gives us a chance in the semi final, £5m and he's ours. Remember Marco Branca Steve? Eh, eh, eh?'.

If we manage to finish 6th and we have the likes of O'Brien, Hackney, Forss and McGree fit we stand a chance. In one-off games out first 11 will give anyone a game, we know that. So I think it is worth taking a punt in January. In an ideal world my team would be as below, with TBC dependent on signings Dieng TBC. Fry VDB. Engel Hackney. O'Brien TBC. Greenwood McGree Lath So really, only a couple of starting places open. And really Forss/Jones should be enough for right wing. An

I reckon we will see a few signings in Jan. Scott indicated there are markets you can work in in January. I'm going for a right back, centre back, and a striker.

Boro vs Leicester 1-0 (Greenwood)

Are we starting to see the performance analyst kicking in? The tactics and subs today were both spot on. We are growing all the time. Loved it today. -
Boro vs Leicester 1-0 (Greenwood)
edinboro replied to Weasel's topic in Match Day Threads 2023/24 Season
Which of Silvera, Rogers and Latte Lath deserve to start this game (if any) and why? None of those but Dijksteel should because he's quick, strong and a right back. 2. Starting 11? Dieng, Dijksteel, Fry, McNair, Engel, Hackney, Barlaser, Greenwood, Crooks, Jones, Coburn 3. Score prediction? 2-2 4. Predict Carrick's outfit for this one, will we see the Grey blazer? Red jumper 5. Since it's Leicester, what's your favourite Walkers flavour of all time? (I know it's the black packet Barbecue) Salt n Vinegar -
Norwich vs Middlesbrough 1-2 (Greenwood, Silvera)
edinboro replied to MRe's topic in Match Day Threads 2023/24 Season
I wonder if he knew he was injured so took the booking to miss a game he was likely to miss any way? -
Middlesbrough vs Cardiff City 2-0 (Jones, Latte Lath)
edinboro replied to MRe's topic in Match Day Threads 2023/24 Season
Were screaming for it to go to Engel. He ignored him first half. -

This team has Sunderland in mind I think. No risks taken. Enough on the bench if we are in trouble. Go give the mackems a bashing on Saturday. -
Watford vs Middlesbrough 2-3 (McGree (2) Coburn)
edinboro replied to MRe's topic in Match Day Threads 2023/24 Season
I didn't mean to start a debate on Tav and McGree. It was just a note that McGree was Tav's logical replacement and is starting to come good. In my opinion he has a higher ceiling than Tav because of his finishing ability. Tav never got as many as he should have. -

edinboro replied to MRe's topic in Match Day Threads 2023/24 Season
On the McGree should have been starting arguement. There was an article about it in the Gazette this morning. Reading between the lines it sounds like Riley's head wasn't in the right place. Whether that was because of links to other clubs, hangover from last season it doesn't really matter. But he's back and looks even better. He really is Tav 2.0. In the end that trade will be seen as an upgrade I believe. -
Sheffield Wednesday v Boro 1-1 (Lenihan)
edinboro replied to boro-unger's topic in Match Day Threads 2023/24 Season
I wouldn't have McGree anywhere near the team after last night. He was awful. No covering back - Coburn tried helping Engel more than Riley did. Crooks ran himself into the ground - worked twice as hard as pretty much everyone else on the pitch. And he works brilliantly with Jones. If he had Dijksteel fit I would be super happy with that right side. Coburn and Lath start on Saturday for me. Rav left back. No idea who plays right back. Should probs go with wing backs actually. -

Well that is interesting if true. Glad about some of it, surprised at others. -
Blackburn Rovers V Boro 2-1 (Crooks)
edinboro replied to Downsouth's topic in Match Day Threads 2023/24 Season
I hope it clicks today. We were so close against QPR. O'Brien and Greenwood in for me. Lath to score a hatrick.
