DCFCArmy Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 2 wins in 8 is hardly screaming a promotion team, don't think their bottling it its more teams have worked them out and they are so slow. Add in the fact their changing their system to accommodate Rhodes who in my opinion doesn't look like he fits their style of play then its not exactly a shock to see them struggling. It makes it even worse that we've had our annual meltdown, because this league is so inconsistent, all the teams at the top have had major drops in form, 82-84 points could be enough this season, can't see us getting to that total now though.

Mr Tibbs Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 They seemed to get through their little wobble by going unbeaten in February but this is a shocker for their chances. Just shows how you can't take games in hand for granted. We're a couple of wins off being right in the mixer but a couple of wins is a big ask for us at the moment.

Your so right, Rhodes can't play with a strike partner successfully, that's why he's never worth the silly money Boro paid for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester Ram Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Exceedingly irritating that the league is just crying out for a consistent team to go and win it this year, which could have been us. Hope we make he play-off's though, because it's so mental this year I wouldn't be surprised if we fluked our way up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the fixture and working top 5 points out ! Burnley 90 Hull 87 Boro 84 Brighton 83 Rams 82 So I'm predicting Brighton in the play offs again ! Of course this is all just in my vivid imagination anything could happen ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think your way off the mark with that top five final finish's & points totals. Not that we won't make the Play Offs though, that's still more than possible now, or at least should be.

SimonBHA Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Quote After the match, Karanka said: “I think today everybody in Middlesbrough will be happy because everybody wanted to play with two strikers and we played two today so maybe everybody is happy even when we have lost the game.” Asked if the persistent talk of 4-4-2 was annoying, he added: “No, because for me the main thing is to try and win the games and today I decided to play with two because I thought it was the best thing and we are going to play more times with two. “Again, if I have made the people happy playing with two strikers when we have lost the game it’s good for them.” Pressure getting to Aitor?

DCFCArmy Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Karanka is feeling the heat, for someone who's had an open cheque book he's not half making a pigs ear of it, he had his settled team and system, granted it was getting a bit found out but they were winning games, now he's bought 2 or 3 players and it might have destroyed the morale, a bit like us. 9m for Rhodes who hadn't scored in about 10 games... *cough blackman cough* all over it, but 6m pound more, and he's criticising the fans now hahaha, not really smart is it.

Thierry Ennui Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Loving this because I know a particularly baulchy Boro fan who has spent the whole of the season saying how they'll walk the league and that they're too good. I'll be delighted if they stay down again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't condone violence on the pitch, but if we got Brighton at Wembley then I'd happily advocate someone launching Zamora into row Z at the earliest opportunity. 6 hours ago, Daveo said: Boro will walk this league.
