He’s got some cheek 

Imagine having the balls to complain about the ref when Branthwaite literally superkicked a player in the face, forcing him to be substituted a bloody mess, and it was totally ignored. 

Branthwaite having a very poor game so far. Looks every inch the 18 year old inexperienced kid he is. If that's what a "big favour" from India looks like we might as well forget what's left of this transfer window.

Such a slow midfield, no wonder we give away free kick after free kick.

Looks heavier to me. First touch  is horrendous too.

First touch results in a loss of ball

No...not been mentioned in 30 mins

Christ, Douglas is horrific. What a depressing match

Come on who still thinks he’s better than bell?

[Fraserkirky]

Get Bell on for this lunatic of a left back.

Branthwaite was solid the last day. I wouldn't be so quick to jump on his back just yet. 

That kick though....

[G Somerset Rover]

Don’t need to be Guardiola to tell you that if we keep giving away needless set pieces then we will lose this match. 

[Tom]

Travis is looking really stroppy and petulant, not sure if he’s just not ready to be back

That was probably before TM could drill in his defensive instructions in

[Stuart]

We could do with Boro either scoring or missing a penalty so that the ref feels it’s even again.

We are going to struggle otherwise.

[Bigdoggsteel]

We aren't at much offensively. Have we strung 3 passes together in the last 30 min? 

[davulsukur]

Anyone who thinks this is good football is kidding themselves.

As always, turgid stuff.

Half-blocked a clearance, that's about it.

Not strong enough to play in midfield.  No idea how he gets in the squad.

Ha, maybe 😂

[yellowsubmarine]

We cant even string a couple of passes in midfield. Is that how we ask questions to Boro, Tony?

He’s okay. Shaky long punts but Nyambe and Douglas far worse and Roth well none existent 

[Exiled in Toronto]

Time to bring Rothwell on...

We're going to struggle because we're a terrible team with a terrible manager. The ref is way down the list of reasons we're playing like shit again.
