What a player he could be for us if we can get a couple of dangerous strikers in the box. And when we actually make use of him, too. The thing I noticed after we made the Smith for Forss change is we rarely actually found the lad. From people who were there it didn't sound like he was tightly marked at all times and really, the last big chances we had were from crosses from his side. The Crooks and Akpom strike partnership was surely there for the sake of getting crosses into the box and for some reason we just stopped utilising our biggest threat on that front. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Yep QPR left him wide open all the time basically and once Smith came on it just killed all our impetus and Giles barely touched the ball after I don't think! 1 Link to post Share on other sites

You can dominate possession and still lose a game...just like you can have a high xG and still lose. I'd rather we just actually won games. 🤷♂️ Would be interesting to see what QPR's xG was, for comparison. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

That's open play xG across both games btw, not just vs QPR. infogol has our xg at 2.07 and QPR at 1.51 for the game. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

wilsoncgp 9,283 Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 This just reminded me of that image of George sat in the dugout after his last home game, how he never got his proper goodbye as a Boro player. Very sad. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
