Match Thread Middlesbrough v Leicester

[popillius]

Yet again a match thread full of abuse towards Iheanacho.

Yet again he's done next to nothing better or worse than anyone else.

I'm all for giving Cannon or Daka a go but Iheanacho has been far superior to Vardy over the last few weeks.

He's been ****ing atrocious. He's missed at least two glorious opportunities and now we pay for it. There is absolutely no defence of his performance today, it has been utter shit.

Choudhury is a ****. It was a ridiculous tackle and completely unnecessary.

Your talking out of your hat. He should of been off on the hour.

 

[SilverFox]

We're well on top and much more likely to score. I wouldn't take a point at the moment.

Would you now?

 

[Jeff]

Daft foul by Choudhury IMO. Taggart saying he had to do it but IMO he's a hot head. Liability at the best of times.

What was he supposed to do?
If he hadn't made the challenge they'd probably have scored, and he had no chance of making a clean tackle from that position.

 

[Jeff]

Would you now?

Yes.

 

[Miles Away]

Very poor again.

 

[give_us_a_wave]

We've actually created very little relative to the huge amount of possession we've had. Thats the worrying part.

Would they? There was a lot that would have had to go right before that. It was a brainless challenge.

 

[SilverFox]

Really poor I have to say.

 

[Miles Away]

Mavididi dreadful throughout

 

[Brown Nose]

Very poor again.

Teams know how we play now. It's very easy to counter.

A few weeks ago EM said we were only 10-20% there in terms of development. Where is the evolution?

I think we're regressing if anything. It's so boring and predictable.

There was no need for it. Tbh I was surprised the ref even pulled it back because Middlesboro' had a great chance on the go even with the dodgy tackle... normally you'll see the advantage played in those situations.

It would have been a much easier chance that the free kick they scored from.

No need for worry yet. Next two matches will give us the measure.
