Feels like we got a lot wrong today but individual quality shone through. That's going to get us a long way this season.

Three players with goals a plenty and Rutter starting to get a few, always goals in us.

WBA 6 points back after going third recently. 10 points clear of 7th
Should always have been the relegated 3 top 3 tbf given the money all spent.

Quietly cheering for Ipswich myself to get 2nd with us 1st :)

McKenna the outstanding manager this season by a mile imo

Is that a young shot of Farke then?

Think this is fair.

Was actually at times quite a poor and disorganised performance.

But better players was enough.

Probably one of if not our worst home performances all season but we still won.

It was a great cutback and goal.

The fans obviously loved Bamford Malc Almond crew cut. They never stopped singing his name. What has he done to deserve so much praise. Du du du du Daniel James du du du du

Cjay wrote: Sat Dec 02, 2023 5:05 pm A slog that.

Both teams had chances until the sending off, we shaded it however imo even before that.

Boro look a very well coached and organised team, just a bit low on quality.

As for us we attacked well and created opportunities but defensively weren't great, felt Struijk in particular really struggled.

Gray offensively is brilliant at full back and Byram had another solid game.

Rutter with an off day, his shooting is genuinely awful and his radar creatively seemed a bit off.

James with another very decent performance and Summerville as well.

3 points against a tough side who've beaten 2 of the current top 4.

But 2 clean sheets in 10 is poor
What. The. Actual. Fck

So we virtually slap another team, have a multitude of glorious missed chances, outplay them, are better all over the park, lots of team play and individual players.

But Boro who got beat, are a well coached side huh and defensively they weren't shite huh :roll:

Yeah reet.

When dya want DF sacked this week or next ?

Get a grip ffs.
