Dominic Revan then. A CB apparently. Born in 2000. Good luck, sunshine.

El Ghazi starting instead of Kodjia. Good to see Mile on the bench.

Basically 4 centre halves and two holding players. Young lad wide and Downing otherside with a lump up top.

Post by: Toronto Villa on December 01, 2018, 04:42:34 PM
I like it. It's bold and aggressive. Good luck to Anwar getting his chance for Kodjia. Boro won't like him and Bolasie screaming down the wings at them. Good to see Mile back and the young lad Revan in there should we need him.

Their approach will be whack it long and if that doesn't work whack it long again. Pinch a lead and then bore everyone to tears time wasting looking to hold on. Oh, there will be long throw ins.

Post by: Rigadon on December 01, 2018, 04:54:39 PM
Al Ghazi's first touch for his goal the other night was sublime.  I hope that was a sign that my initial view of him is completely wrong. 

As for Boro, they will blast it long, hope our defence has more blunders and play for free kicks, corners and long throw ins.

We need to do the business today. Other results haven’t been kind and we’re back down to 11th. A win gets us back to 8th a point ahead of the rags. We can only control what’s in front of us.

John Sleeuwenhoek was 17 when he got his first game at CB and Gareth Barry was the same age.  And told to man mark Dennis Bergkamp.

6 attackers and 4 defenders it seems.

Elmo for Hutton doesnt weaken us but dont agree going without Whelan for this.

Big opportunity for El Ghazi but Boro look a far better balanced side.

Nice to see a couple of youngsters on the bench, but don't know whether it's Deano giving youth a chance or force of circumstances through injury/suspension

Listening to 5 live earlier discussing the forest game, you realise how much love you earn when you go out to score and win games. Bruce made us a nasty, unlikeable outfit by trying to grind out results against teams with a fraction of our resources. Pathetic. No wonder everyone loved it when we got schooled by Brentford etc.

Well deserved lead at half time even if they've had a bit more possession in the last 15 minutes.

Deserve to be further in front if you take into account the (non)penalty and Randolph's excellent save from Tammy
Title: Re: Boro vs Aston Villa Match Thread
Post by: manic-road on December 01, 2018, 06:21:42 PM
That was a good first half, controlled the game pretty much all the half.

Best 30 minute away spell of the season for me.  We made them look every inch the second tier team they are.  I almost feel sorry for the Boro fans having to watch that.  Another level of negative from Bruce.  We on the other hand look a modern, expansive footballing team with some genuinely good players. 

We still have a dodgy keeper and a defensive fuck up in us though, which is why we need another goal or 2.

Title: Re: Boro vs Aston Villa Match Thread
Post by: CT on December 01, 2018, 06:24:55 PM
Really good, disciplined first half from us. We're more than deserving to be ahead and have had a stonewall penalty denied on Tammy.

Second goal might do it for us if we keep this going.
Title: Re: Boro vs Aston Villa Match Thread
Post by: john2710 on December 01, 2018, 06:25:41 PM
I can't believe the difference in how we play now compared to under Bruce. I knew we were better than what Bruce served up but the difference is remarkable with the same players.

We've been ahead at HT before & lost, we need at least another. They will pile on the pressure in the 2nd half.

Playing really well, cast-iron penalty for Tammy.

We dropped the pace a little in the last few minutes and allowed Boro back in. Have to say, Hourihane is great in possession, but scares the crap out of me when they run through the middle at us.

That was a half of football I really enjoyed.  Considering we conceded 5 at home a few days ago, I love the confidence we are playing with.  Grealish I think is playing really well, his ability to find space - and time a simple but effective pass - is excellent.  I like that he doesn't feel the need to dribble every time he receives the ball.  He and McGinn complement each other so well.  Boro I'm sure will come out firing on all cylinders second half, but I do like what I'm watching here.

Yes. Leeds won their last two games (maybe a little lucky). A last minute pen saved against Reading and that crazy mistake by the Sheff Utd keeper today.

Apart from Leeds and ourselves you could argue this weekends set of games all our fellow challengers "should" be winning against "inferior" opponents.

This really tough run has seen us rattle in 15 goals in 4 games.

Wait until we start playing the more dodgy teams again.

Bruce held us back so fucking much it borders on negligence.

Dean Smith I will stroke your balls as you bang your wife!
I'll watch

Is this necessary?

Steve Bruce somewhere is blaming somebody or an inanimate object that he was screwed over, and with a bit more time we’d have been free scoring under him too.

I'm guessing you don't have a couple of daughters, that you'd like to join the H&V community, were it not for this sort of shit?
