The Boro team isnt as strong as ours on paper

Feel like the name Hackney just scews peoples opinion of the overall team. I agree, ours is better and I've always said this. Then again if you listened to some people at various points in the season even the likes of Watford, Sheffield United and Birmingham have better teams than us.

Good attributes and a good age. Expect him to kick on next season.

They have really missed out on bringing in this profile of striker imo.

Still think Hellberg has them playing almost no different to Carrick would have.

Their midfield is great in possession. Unfortunately that does not maketh a champion on its own (I hope)

They spent good money on Strelec. Its very easy to get overseas signings wrong, especially when recruiting for our level. We have a good hit rate imo.

How come Malanda isn’t starting for Boro? I thought he was the second coming of van Dijk?

I wouldn't be massively surprised if he became a Prem striker tbh, Prem clubs will probably hold off and see how he develops for another season though.

Looks nothing like Postman Pat but does look like Morgan Whittaker.

Boro usually have QPR’s number just like we have Boro’s. So in that context, I don’t see QPR pulling out a win. Will be good if they can, but a draw would be decent as well.

That's ruled out with VAR (which is stupid, but the rules are that the arm can't directly lead to a goal).

Whittaker manages to hit it straight at a QPR defender from less than 6 yards TWICE and still scores

Yeah. They sat right off them and let Middlesbrough play it round the back, then pick their moment.

The refs angle the tackle is terrible
Over the ball
Straight leg
Follows through
Torp breaks his leg if he doesn’t leap up out the way and still gets a bad bang
Probably out the next game

Glad someone else realised it was over the top.Someone argued yesterday it wasn’t.
It was the act of a s head.Go in high just in case the other guy might. Kin shit tackle from a coward, frightened of getting hurt in a 50-50.
