oneboro 160 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 2Hot! 2Not! Augsburg friendly & Boro pre-season. A feature by @mrlahhh Each Monday, I’ll take a look at the week’s Boro action and pick out two stars (hot!) and two duds (not!) and condense it into a piece which is a different (but enjoyable) way of reviewing the Boro. The premise is simple and of course, I welcome any discussion on who has (or hasn’t!) been included in any given week. What better way to start this feature ahead of the upcoming season, than a review of the last week of Boro action, including that friendly against Augsburg! Continue reading and discuss...

BoroDave4 974 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 2Hot - Christie & Braithwaite. Braithwaite was everywhere and caused alot of problems for them, with neat passing and interplay as well as a goal and hitting the woodwork. Christie was a pleasant surprise for me, I was a little sceptical when we got him, but his display was full of athleticism, strength and he worked the full length of the touchline, with an assist for Braithwaite to boot. 2Not - Gestede and Howson. Howson would have wanted to have now of an impact on the game but it seemed to in large pass him by. I'm sure he will come good very soon, but he didn't have any noticable moments. Another who would have been looking to make an impact would be Gestede. With competition looking fierce up top now, I can't recall him having a significant touch of the ball after coming on.
