Middlesbrough - v - Leeds United ***Matchday Thread***

[galwaywhite]

Poor first half yet again. We're so predictable the opposition knows what were doing before we do. Passing piss poor and even more importantly choice of pass is terrible.

So this is going well again ...........

Anita has no purpose whatsoever; he cannot tackle, head the ball or pass. He is slow and lazy every time he is beaten (which, let's face it is EVERY time someone has the ball anywhere near him) he either watches them run past him or jogs back at the speed of a Norwegian Glacier. We should try Alioski at left back - except that would reduce our already very limited attacking threat even further.

Lasogga looks like he is in "can't be arsed" mode yet again. Phillips and O'Kane couldn't tackle a dead badger.

And as for the perpetual clown between the sticks - if he were a dog then the vet would have put him down as an act of kindness.

If Forshaw isn't on at the start of half time then it's already time for Heckingbottom to go.

Jesus Christ - Wake the &%$K up you lazy ****s!

Don't see the point of O'Kane, he just hoofs the ball forward to no one in particular. Anita will be off, he can't handle Traore, well done the F.A. For letting him play. This team hasn't a chance of the top ten let alone the top six.

[galwaywhite]

Double substitution at least he's trying to change it up. Need a huge effort 2nd half but doesn't look good.

[WTF11]

Not a single shot in target FFS!

[BelfastAndy]

Ain't getting a sniff.

[Billyni]

Wishfull thinkin i know, but if we could get one?

[Jezleeds]

Set pieces? Wtf

[magnificowhite]

I'm not defending him but 999 times out of 1000 that's a foul on the goalie.
