I think the possible changes for today will be

 

Forshaw for the suspended howson. We might even see a return of Clayton to the bench.

 

Traore/Tavernier for Johnson.

 

I can’t see Leadbitter being dropped now.. or any other of the recent starting 11

Do we need a new thread for a team prediction?

 

I find it interesting you say Derby are one of the most in form teams in the league when they're only 1 point better than us over the last 5 games.

Which BORO will turn up, who will be played, what formation will we play. That’s the issue, we don’t have an identity. This game is the game to really show us who we are and where we are as a club. How far we have come and where we are heading.

I'm walking out before kick-off if I find out Shotton's playing.

To be fair that is a very poor team. Im thinking it will be same team as wednesday barring forshaw for howson. Clayton on the bench.

Is there another thread about our starting XI? Apologies I must have missed it if there is. And yes, Derby are one of the most in-form teams in the league. Which part of that angers you so much? So far today I have been called a racist and been berated for starting a thread about the team I would pick for today and mentioning that our opponents are currently 3rd in the form table (always based on the past 6 games by the way not 5) so we need to be at it from the start.

 

Weird.

 

:huh:

Despite our good league position, we haven't really beaten anyone decent apart from Sheffield United. That's not a disaster. If you look at Watford's results from the season that they went up, they amassed a good majority of their points from the bottom half teams.

 

However, we do need to get some results from top half sides. Today against Derby would be an excellent time to start that. Fingers crossed!

 

I think next weekend's match against Bristol City is going to be a really tough game. If we can get a point from that it will be a good result, so three points today would be very welcome.

 

COME ON BORO!!!

I thought that Leadbitter looked slightly off the pace against Birmingham. We have an abundance of quality in our squad so I would choose to utilise that and start Adam Clayton. Howson is suspended and I think the closest player we have to him is Baker. However, with such little recent game time I think Forshaw may be the safer option.

 

I would not trust Traore from the start and I think Tavernier may benefit from a slight rest. In addition to that, including Traore in the side in his favoured right wing role would mean moving Downing to the left. I think this would be a mistake as him and Christie are building a useful partnership on that side with \Stewart cutting inside and Cyrus overlapping. Johnson is trusted by the manager due to his diligence in protecting his full back and carrying out his defensive responsibilities. I think against a team like Derby it would be more prudent to begin the game with reliable players rather than mavericks like Traore. Of course that is just my option and it will be interesting to see the team that Garry Monk sends out.

Don’t worry about it, post what you want, where you want, LH, there are some odd people who think that the less threads that are, somehow make this a better forum.

 

I hope the racist comment was tongue in cheek, I often get Forshaw and Leadbitter mixed up when I watch games on the TV, I don’t think that makes me a racist though.

i actually put that team on as a test to see what reaction it would get. because it is the most negative defensive team i could put out without making it a blatant micky take. 4cb's, 2 fullbacks 3 defensive barely creative cm's and britt. :D

 

shotton and leadbitter getting early abuse but still forgetting gibbo at left back and only 1 attacking player lol. 

 

i was bored  :P

Thanks Billy! I was a sucker for getting Barmby and Hignett mixed up also back in the day, easily done at times, especially as my eyesight isn't the best!
