@mfcdanny@Boro Back 5 invites us to play slow and ponderous. If Hackney can play the last 30 mins and potentially extra time he can start. How many games have we just let go by this year without taking the game to the opposition?
@Scottwilsonecho Going back 5 against a team playing for a moment is what’s cost us. We scored 4 in 45 minutes against them playing 433. Criminal decision. Never even looked like trying to create something today. Shameful performance all round.
@DannyTaylorDT Back 5 against Hull who played the entire game waiting for one chance. We scored 4 in the first half against them away from home playing 433. Didn’t even attempt anything today. Opportunity of a lifetime and we absolutely ‘boro’d’ it.
Boro played 433 away at Hull at were 4-0 up at half time. In the game of a lifetime he’s gone to a back 5 and we’ve had no shots on target in a play off final. The worst performance I’ve seen from Middlesbrough football club.
@Scottwilsonecho Worried that it’s going to be a repeat of Norwich. No pace on a massive pitch. Would have liked to have seen 3 in midfield but in Kim we trust?
@Boro Back 5 worries me. No pace in the team and a massive pitch. Would much rather have gone with a 3 in midfield and try and dominate the ball. Nevertheless, in Kim we trust.
