Kids who can do the job!! Point is: I see Angus, Hanley, Kenny, Josh and a load of journeymen We are mugs to have the third largest wage bill but aren’t top three in the Championship We need every centre back in the first team gone this summer. McClean is better than all of them, which speaks volumes. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,236 Posted March 6 You can't help thinking with all the experience we had on the pitch we didn't manage the situation better. Our fullbacks have been very poor. Far too easy for boro. Can't see a top 6 finish with this lot. Mentally fragile. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well b back 3,208 Posted March 6 Has anyone got a replay of Howsons challenge from the far side ? Keep seeing reports our players were not reacting to save Sainz but to Howson’s challenge, but I haven’t seen that angle, so can’t comment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mason 47 1,379 Posted March 6 As ever, the most difficult opponent for this Norwich City side is this Norwich City side. They do have some terrible luck, for sure. But they always have some nonsense in them to generate that luck. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JonnyJonnyRowe 446 Posted March 6 (edited) 5 minutes ago, Feedthewolf said:   Completely ridiculous decision to give that a red. Its not like hands to a face which is always going to be a red. Yes its a bit petulant and yes Sainz is hot headed but that's a bit of handbags, a talking to for both players to try and take the heat out of the game. The referee should have booked Ayling for a bad challenge on Sainz earlier in the game, his failure to do so has contributed to Sainz's frustration. Ref should have said "Borja, calm down son, going to get yourself in the book if you don't" Then said to Howson "might have given him a yellow if you'd not made such a meal out of that". Done.

Yellow Fever 3,791 Posted March 6 Seems to me needless petulance from Sainz. Yes not really dangerous but easily enough for the ref to make a snap decision. He's going to be a liability not an asset if he can't get this out of his game as he will be targeted with little niggling fouls by smarter, wiser defenders. Currently not the full ticket.
