So are you going to start Haji on Tuesday night?
I probably would but more as a rotation of Simms, unless Haji puts in a great performance Simms still has the shirt for me.

They create lots of chances under him. Sounds like with a good striker they would be much closer than they already are
the boro fan said last night at 2-2 there was chat that he wasn’t good enough. i trust his judgement

Around that. Although Boro look good under new manager. Sods law that we could have 2 rivals putting up win streaks ffs
Just don't try and negate the impact of a winning group, not you to be clear, but settling for this or that total is talk of losers in my eyes,it also gives lampard room for excuses and the owner TBF?

I don't think lampard is sort to settle. Feels like he hates losing even though he's realistic and doesn't get too high after a win too

Just cut and pasted this from the Ipswich match report


On Ipswich's injuries:

Jaden [Philogene] felt something in his knee. Chuba [Akpom] has hurt his groin so we are assessing that but he won't be available for the next couple of matches.

Kasey [McAteer] had some muscle tightness during the week so he wasn't available today but hopefully he won't be too long.

Good job they have no squad depth, will have to put kids on the bench and are too skint to but anyone decent in the window......
Oh......wait.....

They'll have to play Jack Clarke now, which isn't really a downgrade.

Esse apparently was marked out of the game by Millwall when he played for Palace in one of the cups.
We are in for a tough game on Tuesday.
Remember how big and athletic Watford were. Apparently they lost the physical battle with Millwall today. Seen Watford fans saying they were the best team they'd faced this season... (I know.... always to be taken with a pinch of salt!)

All games in this league are tough if you don't turn up. Start like we did in the first half today we get nothing, start like we did in the second...got to be optimistic.

Leicester were quicker in reaction to anything we were up to for a good chunk of that first half, also we appear to have lost the toss a fair bit lately.

Huge spaces in midfield, defence at sea, slow and ponderous going forward...should have been game over by half time.

What we need to see is a decent performance across the whole 90 matching the intensity of that second half today.
