You choose, because what ever it is, he would never play in front of any of them three.

3 at the back he's left of the the 3.

If it's 2 at the back I think there's a strong argument that RVB and him are the best two.

Certainly wouldn't be moving him on buddy.

Away in Toaster for a bit of R&R so missed the game but 3 points is 3 points. We keep up this form and we may sneak into 6th and then who knows, form is always relevant going into the playoffs.

Nice of Boro to not spoil my birthday celebrations, I shall be tucking into an extra few glasses of gin tonight to celebrate.

Huzzah

Happy Birthday 🎂

My only frustration was the subs. Greenwood and Azaz didn’t get into the game at all and only allowed Brum into the game more. 

Forss was fading, so I understand the logic behind the subs, but yet again, Greenwood did nothing to justify his place on the pitch. Neither did Azaz, which is worrying if we're hoping he'll become Rogers' replacement.

Even though we look much better playing with two up front, it's the one area of the pitch where we're obviously (and quite desperately) short of quality. 

Good win, with some fine individual performances, but a pretty boring watch (especially second half) and hardly a springboard for a late play-off run. Birmingham dragged us down to their level in the second half, but resolute defending kept them at bay.

McNair a weird one 

Best position is in a back 3 which we're obv playing atm but feel that won't be a long term thing

One of our highest earners too 

Losing him for free feels like a blow though, should've sold him

Can any of the other 3 convincingly play the LCB of a back 3? I think if we stick to 3atb Clarke is definitely in with a shout for that role

First of all, happy Birthday.

You only have to look at the formation against Chelsea to answer that, Carrick choose Engel ahead of him.

Clarke is just coming off a long term injury. Carrick now isn't picking Engel over him either.

We've seen enough of him now to know what he's about.  Personally I wouldn't be bothering with a new contract although that would depend a little on if other players are leaving of course.  As it stands we have five senior central defenders so it's not like we are short of numbers.
