Poor game which neither team deserved to win. In the end, Middlesborough got the lucky goal.

The worry for me is there are going to be tough games like that where we can't put much together, but we don't seem capable of grinding out a point. A draw would've been okay, but we simply can't defend. It rolls on from last season.

The goal is a handball, but what is Hegazi doing waiting for the ball and letting the player get in front of him? Liability.

Some of the senior players look well past their best. Rodriguez couldn't trap a bag of sand and can't pass, Gibbs should be the best full back in the division by a mile but has turned ridiculously average, Brunt and Mozza are gone IMO. We are desperate for someone to operate box to box next to Livermore in the centre of the park.

Barnes looked the stand out performer again and don't really know why he was took off. Gayle or Rodriguez would've made sense as both were poor today. Or he could've took both off for Mozza and Kanu and changed the system. To make something happen, we needed Barnes.

Overall very poor, we're going to miss out on the playoffs if we keep performing like that.
