TeaCider24 12,398 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Moukoudi has looked good, not much else positive to say. Expected Brentford to dominate and they have. Link to post Share on other sites
Brunners 7,952 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Well not the worst half I've seen. Defensively alright apart from a 10 minute spell, offensively about as toothless as weve been all season, no improvement there. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Downsouth 6,175 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Cup games aside this winless streak is beginning to be of some concern, totally eradicated the win streak and in the most using the same players. Would still be pleased with a draw but we are not doing ourselves any favours at all. Poor team ethics once again Link to post Share on other sites
Dan1234 1,048 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Our front 3 is just not really good enough. Tav much better deeper and central. Poor as a front 3. Johnson is just poor. Mcnair and Wing poor, Saville is just Saville. Back 4 looked ok, new lad and Dael looking good, Coulson and Howson ok. Just dint think we have the quality to beat these unfortunately.

Well I don’t know why, I can’t remember the last time Fry won a header in the opposition box. Has he scored for Boro? Or even care close? Link to post Share on other sites
AnglianRed 6,229 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 I'd say Boro probably deserve to be a goal down at half time. Brentford have generally looked quicker to the ball, hustled better and their passing & movement was definitely more purposeful. That said, for all that they didn't create many clear-cut chances. Was a very scrappy goal we conceded in the end. Boro - looked like we were chasing shadows for much the game, or else all-hands-to-the-pump defending. Don't think the Brentford keeper had a save to make...unless I missed it. I wouldn't say we're out of this. If Woody can ring the changes effectively, we could still get a point. Brentford certainly don't look unbeatable. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

He had real fun with Brentford's goalscorer, too. Standard Laahndaahn dialect. Did it sound like Jennifer by any chance? Link to post Share on other sites
BoroSmoggie 2,678 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Fletchers done nout, but not really his fault. Saying that he needs to do better at holding the ball up when he does get it. I’d bring another striker on with him go two up top, Britt or Nmecha. Also Morrison for Wing Link to post Share on other sites
Dan_Boro_Till_I_Die 1,178 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Agree with what has been said above. Whilst we have our faults at least we can switch it up from the bench and we're not getting hammerd. The commentary on the stream I'm watching is awful bloody arrogant Brentford commentators.

Dynamo Kev 1,552 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 we have ended up with 1 up front and 5 midfielders chasing shadows lol. we need to take one of them off and put nmecha or britt on. atleast we might have the ball stick a bit longer. fletch is totally isolated. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

It was a bit more West Country than that. Imagine him with a straw in his mouth saying "ahhh", and you've pretty much got it. Never understood how Merson has managed to carve out such a lengthy career on SSN when every sentence is populated with filler terms like "janowotamean" and "wossname". He makes Charlie Nicholas seem like Sir David Frost. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
TeaCider24 12,398 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Plenty of time to get back in this, but there definitely needs to be changes. Link to post Share on other sites
AnglianRed 6,229 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 (edited) Bit dicey. Pears is gonna have the sun in his eyes this half... Bloody hell! Speculative effort there and Boro nearly get the equaliser! Think it was meant as a cross by Tav but it nearly sneaked in. Link to post Share on other sites
