Boro v Blackburn FA Cup 0-1


Recommended Posts

Not a terrible first half but hardly a thrill-a-minute either.

Hope Boro were saving their big effort for the second half.

Lots of possession and pretty football but precious little goalmouth action. 

McGree with Boro's two (only?) best chances to score. One wide, the other high.

 

Blackburn will think they're a bit unlucky not to be ahead after Leonard's strike came back off the bar.

Boro need to find a couple more gears second half...and maybe some new tactics.

you can have the joy of hearing about "Bar Sal Air" when he is on the ball. I've not quite heard his name being butchered like that before.

When Rovers attack we need to get back at them with speed while they are spread out but instead we amble up the pitch passing and passing some more and then passing sideways or recycling backwards. Rovers by then have regrouped and employ a low block frustrating us.

Contrast Rovers attacking with energy playing the ball into space to run onto.

From what I've seen of Hamilton in his time here he's been destroyed by City, only ever recycles possession

 Could well be the problem that needs a lot of coaching and encouragement. He need to understand that we need our wingers to take on their man and get into the box with the ball. I’ve by no means written him off but he doesn’t look ready yet.

My streams have commentary!

You just need to ignore the "Unmute me" button and hover your mouse over the bottom of the window to show the play & volume controls.

You may get 1 pop-up but after that you should be good.

 

Mind you I use the Firefox browser with the Adblock Ultimate extension installed (its free but I made a donation because it works pretty well).
