Wondering how good Middlesbrough's strength in depth is after tonight's game

How old is your TV? I used to get loads of buffering, bought a new TV and no problems since.

Unlucky to not be 2-0 up let's not forget , hit the bar and then really should score on half time

EMC needs to do a LOT more to impress me. Looking like a sunday league player (which he effectively was before 1 good season at Peterborough)
Click to expand...
I’m hoping he’s just finding his feet in this league. Seen glimpses from him and he has played out of position for the most part. Strangely though he probably had his worst game vs Stoke when he was playing on the left. Like you say, he’s not looked great thus far.

Yea Dasilva gives us attacking options, Bassette looks lively and Eccles is trying hard.
Still waiting for Palmer to stop playing walking football, and join in with the rest of em.

His finishing is crap be fair, the rest of his all round game has been decent and he's provided a much needed spark when he's come on in league games.

He really has , he's trying to get us forward , he fills in all the spaces whilst his partner runs around a lot doing nothing

I mentioned this when we were linked my bro in law is a West Brom fan. BTA needs 15 chances to score 1.

it’s not going to happen with the small amount of chances we create

But not seen enough to say he's a really bad finisher

Look at the shots Simms scuffs all the time. Worse than bta shot Vs Bristol in closing minutes which was dragged wide

And Simms scored a lot of goals last year so bta could too. Maybe not that number but like I said just don't see him as standing out as a rly poor finisher. Not yet anyway

Nice not to be coming to the immediate conclusion that the new signing is shit.

Bertie seems like some talent - taken to him straight away.

Oxford are clearly well coached, but have played deep from the start, content to play on the counter. They’ve defended well to be fair.

Just got in from training so admitedly only saw the last ten minutes, but our Norman looks quite a player. Regarding BTA, he's obviously a very hard working player, but questions about his finishing are absolutely fair enough. Seen it a few times now and the West Brom fans have warned us. He has to do better with that chance there.

It really is, he tried about 3 through balls in as many minutes at one point that half.

At least it makes it very clear what we need to work with him on then.

Give them time, don't think either will reach the heights of simms/Wright but they will both contribute.

Basette looks seriously good for a 19 year old.

No idea why Robins has paid over £4 million for EMC and won't play him in his best position.

Please can we stick with Thomas at CB, he's so much better than Latibeaudiere.

In fairness Thomas was awful at Stoke (and I am s fan) and Lati was very good at Bristol.
