      Boro have done this a few times but have not always been so lucky!

          Romeo back, Wickham probably here for the games after Saturday.

          I like Lamouchi, but this is one hell of a job, he needs to raise confidence and quickly!

            It is always a gamble, but he was an intelligent player and would have learned a lot with England and obviously Fergie, he is doing well so far the players have bought into his philosophy and he has earned their respect as it's working, for now.

            He had good experience also at big clubs like West Ham, Spurs, and of course a long stint at United, as well as playing lower level at loan at Swindon and Birmingham.

              Came here to post this

              "Mahlon Romeo and Ebou Adams?
              Update on Mahlon is that he started the week training with us. So he will be available for the game.

              And Ebou Adams?

              Not yet. He’s not training yet."



              Maybe Ng can slot in at LB

                  If Romeo is fit to be available he has to play, and yes, Ng has to go to left back. The Jack Simpson experiment has to come to an end, and we can ill afford O'Dowda to continue playing in a defensive role.


                  Based on the information Romeo is available my team would be this:

                  Alsopp

                  Romeo
                  McGuinness
                  Kipre
                  Ng

                  Davies
                  Wintle
                  Rino
                  O'Dowda

                  Kaba
                  Robinson


                  We can win if we start shooting with that team.

                    I'd take that.

                        True. Maybe there's a healthy dose of luck about these things but at least they took another risk on a rookie (and not one that was In The Building already).

                          I think 442 as well, but would go with philogene over Davies, and ( i think) Bagan as left back. I thought Bagan was okay but is he really so bad that the 3rd manager doesn't fancy him? if he is, maybe Ralls in there.

                            I looked after i posted as i was thinking of Woodgate, Southgate & Carrick but forgot about Robson. Honorary mentions to McClaren and Karanka who were also give their 1st opportunity in management, albeit having had some experience in the dugout previously.

                              That's as strong a lineup as I could think of.

                                I think i'm happy with that, but I have a feeling he will play Etete and Kaba. I'd be happy with that too, and it would give Robinson the kick up the arse he needs!
