Home to the team top of the league on a freezing Tuesday night 3 days after your team have just been spanked & expecting the same tonight. Not looking forward to this......
I can see Morrison on the right, Solly on the left with Cort and Taylor in the middle tonight. Or 3 at the back with Solly slipping in to a defensive mid role.
I have to say that I'm not looking forward to this one with any real hope, in fact dread would describe it better after Saturdays performance. I'm hoping that the individual errors were largely down to the constant tactical changes, it would be hard to attribute Cort's errors to that though. If Cort was carrying a knock or a bug etc fair enough, otherwise I'd be surprised if he starts, Dervite may just start at centre back. We looked nervous on the ball once we went one up and Middlesbrough started running at us and upped the tempo.
I agree with the many posts above about an extra man in midfield, how we could do with Keith Jones now. The left back spot is a real problem, I would bring Hughes back either to play there (I know he’s right footed but what other options are there?) or as a holding midfielder that lets Hollands and Stephens get forward and do what they are best at. If Hughes goes into midfield then the only option I can see for left back is Jackson (mad I know). It will be a tough ask of the manager tonight, let s not read too much into it, hold our nerve and get behind the team.
Sack Chris Powell = Bo lax
Pretty sure that Hughes isn't fit yet so that's a no no.
And Keith Jones ??? A very decent midfielder indeed but wasn't he relentlessly criticised for his crablike, sideways passing ?
Hughes - now that is a shame, typical of our recent luck.
Jones - sideways and backwards but always to a red shirt (even if we were away ) IMO exactly what we need right now, very underrated player.
