I believe you wear one of them in order to accommodate the other.
I believe you wear one of them in order to accommodate the other.Do they live on opposite sides of the country?
If your parking near the ground there is a Greene King/Hungry Horse near called the Six Medals
If you are parking in the town then most pubs in centre are okay with away fans and the Riverside is about a 10/15 min walk from the town centre - lived in Middlesbrough during my undergrad uni years and the folk up there are decent enough and caused me no bother whenever we played them (albeit that was before we did them in the Play-Offs)
There are some really cool bars on Baker Street and Bedford Street in the town centre (just off the uni campus) that you probs wouldn't expect to find in a pretty industrial place like Middlesbrough

Also you play Sakamoto at left wingback we are back to having to small players at wingback At least Rudoni is 6'1"Might be wrong but he played RWB at Cardiff last season and was pretty rubbish. I think MR mentioned it in his interview.
I'd stick with Rudoni. He didn't look out of place and played well in that role.
Jay DasilvaI swear this “all wingbacks need to be colossuses” thing only started as a way to dig at Dasilva. I’ve never heard it before. Cafu are Carlos were midgets and generally recognised as the best ever.
Sakamoto played great in the 10 role I thought. I hope he starts there again tbh, he is a busy little bastard who picks up great positions.I’d start the team that started other than Rudi in for Kitching, Torp will be a class supersub as the egg chaser Eddie Jones would call him one of our finishers. Tatsu tires players out and filters out wide offering more support to the wide backs which will help so much to pin back Middlesbrough’s main threats more. Torp definitely deserves a start though just think Tatsu is the best option for this game
Jay Dasilva
Our Roberto Carlos from Luton
Dasilva may or may not be any good but his height isn’t the reason yet it’s the most commonly stated reason for not playing him.
It was basically the reason why Kitching started in front of him vs Luton though.
His height is a problem in a back 4. Not really in a back 5.In one very specific game to target a specific threat. That’s not the same as screaming “everyone targets Dasilva!!1!!1?1” every time he walks on the pitch.
Robins pointed out the experience of when we got battered 5-0 against Luton away and how they targeted that gap between Maatsen and the LCB (probably JCS).It was basically the reason why Kitching started in front of him vs Luton though.

He’s also just terrible defensively.
Not a height issue for me as much as a physicality issue at times depending on who he’s against.then say that. Don’t say he’s short.

Were you watching the same game as me, I thought Kitching was like a rabbit in the headlights, didn't know where he was supposed to be, but we all have our own perspective on gamesRobins pointed out the experience of when we got battered 5-0 against Luton away and how they targeted that gap between Maatsen and the LCB (probably JCS).
Kitching looked alright at LWB. It’s probably given us food for thought should we choose to play 4-2-3-1 again.
It’s revisionism coz we won, Kitching at wing back was a failure and that’s why he was hooked.Were you watching the same game as me, I thought Kitching was like a rabbit in the headlights, didn't know where he was supposed to be, but we all have our own perspective on games
Law of averages also says we are due a win at Deepdale ....Im going to stick my neck out and say that we will keep a clean sheet. The law of averages says were are due one
Robins felt he had a decent job. If we weren’t 2-0 down he wouldn’t have got subbed.Were you watching the same game as me, I thought Kitching was like a rabbit in the headlights, didn't know where he was supposed to be, but we all have our own perspective on games
I’d like to see what Torp could do in the 10 from the start.I'd start the same team which started the game against Luton but swap Kitching and Binks around.
I would start Rudoni at LWB for the next few games.
The current successful 3-5-2/3-4-3 teams (Sporting/Leverkusen) play wingers/midfielders in the wing back position, not full-backs, as they can get you up the pitch better.
It's not like Dasilva is solid defensively anyway so I don't think it will make too much of a difference in that sense.
Think it was very Luton specific.Not a good sign for JDS that robins is putting non LWBs in there.
Yeah I think Bidwell has been poor this season.His stats are miles better than Bidwell's this season and actually probably the best overall in the squad for defence.

Ironically Bidwell's attacking stats are better than Dasilva's this season.
what do you mean by 'press resistant player'? Do you mean least likely to give the ball away under pressure? Or something else?Dasilva is the most press resistant player in our squad so he’s got to start
