I'm sure some of those games we lost Simms started didn't he?
I would have Grendel, based on the difference between Wright last few months and Simms. It worked out, fair play, but it didn't work out in other 17 out of 19 games, where he didn't score a goal..Whereas Simms had scored 10 in 13 starts. You can claim that as a victory, but Simms was in form and dropped, then we lost lots of games.
We've pressed all season, especially early on with BTA.m, it was a big part of our success. We were just that bit more effective with it on Monday because we've added a midfielder who could anticipate where the ball might go beyond the press.So you don't think we were more defensive? You don't think we pressed more, than any other game this season?
Simms' performance at QPR was so bad that I think it's Wright to start every game provided he's fit enough for the remainder of the seasonI'm sure some of those games we lost Simms started didn't he?

Even Frank said he changed it. Worked on it all week. Can't be arsed to argue,not looking for a fight. We have not pressed like that, as a team, all season. Clearly having new Frank, has added a different dimension.We've pressed all season, especially early on with BTA.m, it was a big part of our success.

Yes we have, when we were blowing teams away at the start of the season the high pressing and winning the ball back high up the pitch was one of our major strengths and why we scored a decent number of turn over goals.Even Frank said he changed it.

let them, I've said for a while they are far to suspect defensively and if anyone has a proper go at them they can get joyListening to various neutral podcasts, they're all still going on about how great Boro and 'hellball' are.

It’s the exact same as what we were doing for half a season only they’re poorer up top.Listening to various neutral podcasts, they're all still going on about how great Boro and 'hellball' are.
Not the pundits from the little I've seen.Listening to various neutral podcasts, they're all still going on about how great Boro and 'hellball' are.
