Boro The Ones To Watch

[ramspride]

Watching Middleborough last night, admittedly only highlights, I can see them getting one of the automatic promotion places. They have a solid defence including Ayala, could still do with him. The key though is Bamford,playing down the middle, should definitely have kept him.

ayala who was never fit and bamford who openly slagged us off when we played them don't think so .

They are a competent team, but no better than us or most around, their strength is defence, Norwich seem determined to stay in this division, which given the players they have is a puzzle, but then chopping and changing managers does not help!

Seen a few posts recently suggesting Boro are physical with a good defence. I've only seen them against Derby and City and they looked useful going forward. That Tomlin looks a decent player and Karanka has them well set up.

Be interesting on see how many sides are noted as the ones to watch in the next few months.

I agree that Boro are one to watch, not only do they play good football, but they have a real buzz about them and are full of confidence.

It's going to be tight, Boro, Bournemouth ourselves and Norwich pitting it out for auto promotion. A harder league this year than last, the quality seems to be a lot higher.

It's good to be in it.

Norwich or Ipswich??

I think all the top teams are going to have inconsistency. Case of who holds their nerve the best and which squad is the deepest!

I actually think Ipswich are the most consistent of the top teams on what I have seen. Boro like us will dazzle on their day, but have the ability to drop performance level the next week!
