No, like Leicester, you defend and attack as a team. But our full backs are clearly weak, both in terms of positioning and actually tackling. Im still not convinced by Kaboul, but I like what Ive seen of Kone, looks a no nonsense type (although his distribution needs working on). I also think we have a ropey goal keeper.

So yes, in terms of picking out our main frailties, the defence and keeper are highest on the list.



Im not underestimating them. The league doesnt lie and they have been very effective. I just think we will prove a bigger test than many others, as despite our situation, we will not go out and attack so space will be a premium. Its simply not Big Sams way to play open and I can see it being a scrappy game. Im not saying we will get a result by the way, just saying I think the midfield battle will be a close one.

Our full backs are poor but again you will have plenty on here talking PVA up as well. With all these good players how can we be struggling...... Again?
I think we'll be competitive for a period but can see them scoring and we'll have to be a little bolder and that's where they pick teams off.

There was a post on reddit from a Boro fan who said after someone posted a gif of kone scoring the winner vs Utd
'whatever happens, and whoever scores it's always funny to see man Utd lose':lol:

Absolutely nothing wrong with any of that mind. Why shouldn't they be confident?
Top of championship Sunderland playing bottom placed Rotherham next season and we'd be no different.

Fair point but we will stay up!

Yeah our problems started in the summer bringing dick back. That run till October was horrific. If Sam was the manager from August and had the players we've since January imo we'd be midtable or around that

We'd be on 31 points. Possibly 32. Just above Norwich based on his record since he arrived

I think I owe you an apology.

Am starting to see the issue. After arguing with ppl since the weekend for daring to criticise the team / manager very slightly there's a bizarre undercurrent on here of people who think we have a superb team and anyone who says otherwise is trying to undermine the club or something.

Still think you're a tw@t mainly like.
 
Someone on Talksport this morning who lived in Leicester but wasn't a Leicester fan said the fans he knows, up to Xmas, said they would be happy with 4 place!

But not now.

Erm I'm calling them arrogant and called them wankers when got battered in the corner flag, you silly arsepipe. But yes, if you support a team that dominated english football for so long you can at least see why it might be.
