LBP 3,012 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Can't deny we looked much much better when we had Morsy and Howson in midfield vs Derby The battle to see who can have the lowest possession tomorrow, currently Boro are 22nd with an average of 41.8% a game and Blackburn are 23rd with a 38.9% average 2-1 Boro (Uche, Tav, Brereton) Look out for Joe Rothwell tomorrow, a joy to watch when he's on song but let's hope that's not the case Link to post Share on other sites

My Boro books, scrapbooks, internet etc, great to read, saying that I've always been knowledgable of the Boro mid 70's onwards to the final season at Ayresome Park 1 Link to post Share on other sites
DevKWat 2,365 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 My team for tomorrow. • Blackburn fullbacks weak, Tav and Jones crucial. • Payero needs at least 60 minutes before the international break. • Ikpeazu against 2 very physical centre halves. Can see a red card between those 3. Approach: We must get the ball out wide quickly and get bodies and the ball into the box. Blackburn do not have much pace for the counter attack. We aren’t usually great when a team invites us on but a high line would be a good option against this opposition. (Ian Poveda changes this if he plays for Blackburn) Blackburn’s key man is Ben Brereton (Diaz) 2 Link to post Share on other sites
SmogDane 4,052 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Lumley Dijk, Fry, Hall, Bola Spence, Morsy, McNair, Jones Crooks, Uche 4-4-2 Link to post Share on other sites
Dynamo Kev 1,552 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 (edited) my team -----------uche jones----payero----tav ------crooks morsy bola- paddy- fry --dijk got to give payero minutes. we need him in the team. hes way better than what we have potentially. we wont see that unless he plays. just start him every game and sub his 60min in. he needs his confidence. actually thinking about it i bet we go 5 at the back: ------------uche ------payero----tav jones ----morsy ------dijk -----bola-- fry --paddy Edited August 27, 2021 by Dynamo Kev Link to post Share on other sites

You will always be a total legend Mogga. I sincerely hope you return to us in some capacity once your managerial career is over in some capacity. Ideally scouting. Legend without a doubt, love the bloke, he still has the Boro in his heart I didnt want him to manage us due to the fact I knew when it goes wrong at the Boro it usually goes badly wrong & he'll be hammered, which he was by a few of our fans, in a perfect world he'd manage us to greatness but in reality we'll just have to remember Mogga who was the leader with his band of brothers who through the most difficult period in our history played with pride, passion, sleeves rooled up captain 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Brick_Tamland 60 Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Did he really never play at the Riverside? I was sure he played there once. Maybe for Ipswich? Link to post Share on other sites
Erimus74 2,976 Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 We're due a home win over Blackburn, we have to go back to Boxing day 2012 for the last victory over em on Teesside, when Lukas Jutkiewicz scored the only goal 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Not 100% sure, he could have played when they visited us in 1998, in a 1st divison fixture, dont think I have the teamsheet of that game either Link to post Share on other sites
DevKWat 2,365 Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 I’ve got a feeling he’ll Chuck Payero in from the start today, as unlikely as it is in reality. I think he’ll want to shut the fans up and a week on the training pitch with Leo should’ve done him a world of good Link to post Share on other sites
