Boro vs Aston Villa Match Thread

[ez]

Good performance so far. 1-0 to us. It doesn't mean a great deal though, with our defence I've no idea which way this game will go.

Blimey just seen the table. Bit of a gap between top 2 and the rest now. Don't win this and we're 10 points off Leeds.

Championship gets predictable when we start stringing wins together yet again.

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.

Imagine being a Boro fan putting up with that week after week. No wonder despite being decently placed in the table fans don’t want to go and watch. Eye bleeding stuff.

Easy I just have to cast my mind back a couple of months.

Steve Bruce was a joke

Is Birkir injured?

As shit as it was under Bruce, it’s a while new another level with Pulis.

Is Birkir injured?

Yep, back in training next week I think.

El Ghazi has been great so far

Yep, back in training next week I think.

Did he have an op couple of weeks ago?

Yes only a minor one on his ‘groin.’

[Edvard Remberg]

I think Chester is far from fit. His clearance just before seemed to suggest he couldn't swing his body as normal,  hence not kicking it right.

Thanks Bruce for the backup

Nyland is utter wank.
