Smogzilla 7,388 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Really good 1st half. Full backs in particular doing great work 2 Link to post Share on other sites
boro-unger 3,818 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Decent first half. We've been a lot more forward thinking today. Lots of good driving runs from Tav, Coulson and spence. Spence in particular has been great. Very good at going round people, nicking the ball and he's got a bit of pace. Let's just not capitulate like hull 2 Link to post Share on other sites
AnglianRed 6,235 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Boro still a goal to the good at half time. I'm very happy with the way the lads have worked, showing plenty of energy, pressing Charlton and not giving them much time or space to play. Pears has been a virtual spectator and Ayala hasn't been called into action very often. Boro had several passages of good build-up play, that with a bit more composure could have resulted in goals. We really could have been 2 or 3 up by now. Hoping its more of the same second half. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Full backs in particular doing great work We have a grip of the game we're controlling where we push, where we lose possession and when we want to drop it's been a good display so far problem is it's 1 0 and surely Charlton will be better 2nd half I think we keep sending Coulson and Spence down the sides we look more ragged when we expect Britt and Fletcher to bulldoze 1 2s through the middle between themselves. Hopefully we find a 2nd goal and kill the game we need 3 points. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Johnmfc81 902 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 We needed another goal before half time I reckon. Just to settle the nerves. Second half Charlton will come at us, hopefully we won't just sit back and try and soak it up. We need to continue on the front foot and keep getting Spence and coulsen up the pitch. Been very impressed with Spence so far, a good opportunity to make the position his IMO. Link to post Share on other sites

Let's hope for a bit more luck 😉.

Denzel Zanzibar 6,932 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Let's not get carried away, Charlton have been absolutely dreadful. Need a 2nd goal early second half 1 Link to post Share on other sites

AnglianRed 6,235 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Oooohhhh! So close from Britt there! Another great move, but Assombalonga's header deflects off a defender, giving the keeper an easy catch. Link to post Share on other sites
