I can see us sneaking this as Pulis will be more interested in stopping us than winning! That's interesting. He's not the best centre back in the youth side, for me he's a way behind Bedeau - but, Revan also plays as a full back - I wonder if he's travelled more as full back cover than centre back cover. Anyway, whichever, it's good experience for him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomaszk Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Can't see us leaving with anything sadly. Think they'll bully us in our own area. I can see a 3-2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 (edited) We faced Boro at The Riverside twice last season and won both games 1-0. We put them out of the play offs and they failed to score in both league games and in both of those play off games. What are the chances that we get another clean sheet? It's probably less likely than that we win there again. Boro last won at home against us 14 years ago and since then we have won 5 matches there and drawn the other one. Overall we have won 59 and drawn 32 of the 130 league games between the two clubs. A win would be very nice having dropped two home points on Wednesday. They won't score 5 goals so 5 goals for us will in my opinion guarantee us a win. I don't think we will need quite that many. Let's score 3 and see if that proves to be enough!

Revan is aggressive and will attack the ball particularly in the air but Bedeau will drop off and read the game more. I think it’s great news if Revan has travelled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robtaylor200 Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 (edited) Different style of play since the last time we played them, not sure what to expect Our defence is no where like what it was, but neither is our desire to attack Deano knows our defence is crap, so we have to go all out to score more than them 4-1 @80/1.

alreadyexists Posted December 1, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted December 1, 2018 I think it’ll be a tight game, low scoring, and maybe another draw: 81-81 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best hope is to dominate posession and outscore opponent. Only thing we can do until Jan. Elmo for Hutton Moreira for Nyland Jedinak for Conor to sit infront of the defence, need extra protection and height to defend against Pulis' only tactic. I think we can win but a lot needs to go our way. Hooefully ill be pleasantly surprised just like our last away game. Head says 2-2 Sorry, but Moreira is a worse version of Nyland. Bring back Spink.

alreadyexists Posted December 1, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted December 1, 2018 (edited) Bunn should get a look in helpfully , Nyland is just too poor... 5 shots on target for Forest and 5 goals. Bunn might’ve saved one? Edited December 1, 2018 by alreadyexists 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villalad21 Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 No we shouldn't play Jedinak because we fear Tony Pulis. We should play like we did against Forest. It's them that should worry about us not the other way around. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villaglint Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Thing is with Bunn you know he is going to be absolutely terrible and with Nyland your almost certain he’s going to be terrible but there is a chance that as long as he doesn’t have much to do he might..just might... do something good...every now and then. I don’t think I’ve ever seen Bunn play well whereas as Nyland has maybe had the odd game where he has been OK. Like trying to decide which dump to eat. At least one might have some nuts in it.
