Dynamo Kev 1,558 Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 i reckon another loss today to match another terrible team selection. new manager bounce well and truly over. hope i'm wrong but being a boro fan this long i think i'm afraid to be optimistic. after a bright start i'm fearing a false dawn under wilder is cripping me after a couple or worrying performances and dodgy team selections. add in the way uche has been forced out and we are playing a turd upfront on loan. 1 1 7 Link to post Share on other sites

Uche is a dreadful footballer, he's certainly not the solution regardless of what you think of the rest of the strikers. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I admit we were poor the first half last game, but second half we slightly changed the positioning and really got at them, they were hanging on for dear life and were close to crumbling till the incident in the crowd stopped the game, someone joked that Mrs Mogga 'fainted' to relieve the pressure as it came at the worst time (Obviously I wish a speedy recovery to the person in the crowd). It gave them time to catch their breath and set their shape up, we conceded a pretty jammy goal, we lost 1-0 to one of the best teams in the league, it's not the end of the world. I'm fully behind Chris, I am enjoying watching us play again, I am sure a lot of you are the same. The performances haven't been fantastic the last few games but we still got results, that spell at Blackburn was showing us back at our best I thought, and we all still have to bare in mind that a lot of this team had covid so of course we were going to be rusty for a few games, not to mention a lot of these players were coached to play dull hoof ball very recently, it's going to take time. UTB! 1 Link to post Share on other sites

DanFromDownSouth 1,706 Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 (edited) I know Wilder seems to be wedded to his two up top. But I'd be intrigued to see Sporar central then two of Connelly/Balogun/Watmore either side of him from the start. Would also need to tweak the midfield to accommodate that though.

p_mards 1,365 Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 (edited) I think Wilder will stick with the same team that started against Blackburn to give them an opportunity the right the wrong. He doesn't strike me as an impulsive manager that will knee-jerk with players as he has faith in them. With the strong wind today I think both us and Coventry will be taking more long range shots. Paddy McNair will have space to move forward and great technique striking the ball so he'll be our best chance of a long ranger. Since the home win against Nottingham Forest, our performance levels have slipped somewhat so hopefully we can start to regain them levels. Hopefully there aren't any others isolating as well as Boyd-Munce. Link to post Share on other sites

Good job we are not playing with footballs as light as the ones you could buy for a quid at the newsagents. They loved the wind😀 many a quid and ball the wind gods snatched from me with a gust of wind. Link to post Share on other sites
