Johnmfc81 902 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 I'm surprised he has kept bola in, but maybe paddy being on the bench gives us options. Link to post Share on other sites

Jamie-H 1,322 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 The one thing which I think Wilder has not handled well since he's been here is the Akpom situation. In his press conference he said something along the lines of Akpom not being up to fitness because he missed a large part of pre season... But he missed pre season not because of injury or personal issues but due to the manager casting him from the group because he wants rid, issue is Akpom is an asset we paid over £2 million for and he should never have done that, all it's done is devalue the asset. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

TLF10 4,440 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 @diggerlad07 do you know how long Coburn could be out for mate? Link to post Share on other sites
Erimus 63 478 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 I'm shocked Akpom hasn't kept his place with an assist v WBA, plus Watmore's miss. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Although I do think the Lenihan will be first choice in the centre of the 3. It's upto Fry to displace him. Link to post Share on other sites
Changing Times 12,219 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 15 minutes ago, Bruce said: Wilder clearly doesn't rate Akpom. Fair enough, he's done nothing for 7 years but I thought he was the better out of him and Watmore last week. Don't know if Bola has kept his place on merit or McNair and Fry are still carrying a knock. Can't say I'm optimistic at this point. I thought he'd go for Watmore with Forss, I think he wants the work rate of the former as much as anything else. I did think McNair would be back in for Bola, mind. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Erimus 63 478 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Watmore would be better coming on as an impact sub, but Wilder knows best, or does he? 2 Link to post Share on other sites
RiversideRed 1,216 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 (edited) Any links to the match guys? Concerned about Bola starting at LCB again, please Boro just go and sign Greaves. I'd have gone with Akpom & Forss in attack. Watmore better off the bench. Link to post Share on other sites
