Match thread Millwall v Middlesbrough

[BigPaul]

Yeah

Surely, that's a stat that happened on the pitch? Or rather it didn't.

 

[BigPaul]

First of all the good news I am very pleased we won and got three points

I don’t want to moan but can’t help it coz that was boring, there was no atmosphere and no energy in the game

it seemed like a training game or pre season game to me and thankfully Middlesbrough are fucking pony

going back to positivity I am hoping the lack of intensity is due to our transition to a new formation and the after effects and of that wanky 5-2-3 bore ball we have been served up for quite a while

i know I should not be moaning following a 2-0 victory but can’t help it so apologies

I think we did what we had to do and at 2-0 up it was clear it was job done.
Boro were really poor. 62% possession and 1 shot on target.

Thought that we played well today. Good all over the pitch. Sav, Billy, Hutch and Danny excellent. Others good. Only below par performance was Tyler; didn't get into the game.

Just caught up with todays result. Got to be happy with the win. Now if we could only find some consistency.

Gonna be the key this season for us. Need to find it as that has let us down previously. Must take more of the chances we create.

What we have to do now is push on and keep the 4 at the back, we was still playing it safe with 2 holding in Mitchell and Saville, both I have to say done a great job and worked their socks off, Bradshaw done a lot of running on his own, but will still work better with a partner, maybe change it from a 4-2-3-1 to a
4-1-3-2

I tried to post at half-time but a problem with my internet connection.

Burey is a disgrace. A lazy gormless individual who when the opposition have possession leaves us one man short.

By all means bring him on when chasing a game but under no circumstances should he be in a starting lineup

 

[Eamon Dunphys tackle]

Good 3 points, we looked comfortable and they didn't put us under any real pressure due to the way we defended.

Boro were dreadful. Arguably the worst team down here this season.

Can only play what's put in front of you

 

[STWall]

What do I win? a dinner date with GR explaining how 5 at the back works?

No that’s the booby prize mate!

 

[Millwall-84]

Nice to see some positive posts after our win today

Look at my thread for positives

Couldn't get there today because of the fucking train strike, but if Boro were worse than Stoke or Blackpool, we've got nothing to worry about relegation wise

 

[PurleyLion]

He didn't have to leather that shot. If he had just rolled the ball to the goalkeeper's left it would have found the net.
It was clear the keeper was going to his right.
Bad miss.

Watched on the replay, keeper was out very quickly, made himself big and got lucky.

Not sure Bradshaw had time to pick a spot. Looked a bad miss but I’d still start with him v Bristol City.

 

[High Life Street 2.0]

A incredibly boring game but a good performance.

 

[norwichmark]

Burey is totally lost on me.

At least someone else sees it, league 1 at best. He’s clueless

As I’ve kept saying, league 1 at best. Glad I never said that

Just a bad day for him, the more he plays the better he will get

 

[norwichmark]

Just a bad day for him, the more he plays the better he will get

Again

 

[PurleyLion]

There are some things he may improve but it’s his brainpower, work ethic and attitude that’s lacking and I honestly don’t think that will change.

When I think of the abuse AOB use to get, but compared to Burey he was a robust Goliath of a player!
