Middlesbrough v Tottenham Hotspur, FA Cup 5th Round, Riverside Stadium, Tuesday 1st March 2022 at 19:55 GMT, LIVE on BBC1

[Sir Archibald Crooks]

If we start next season with Winks or Hjobjerg still in this team, I'm done with this club.

Dont want them at the club. The term squad player is used to excuse having shit like them hanging around. Sell them for whatever we can get

 

[matspur]

Anyone who blames Conte when he had a midfield choice of Wanks, PEH, White and Devine with a bench of Bergwijn, Scarlett and nobody else in attack is a moron.

This is 100% on the lack of quality in our club, nothing to do with the manager at all.

It’s a bit of both

 

[tommyboyspurs]

What the fuck does he do?

This isn't Bayern fucking Munich we're playing

u sure they have the same kit on

 

[Igula]

We all know Enic are to blame.

But come on. Utterly outplayed by a lower level team isn't on them

When they decide the money and transfer policy it is, unless you are trying to be pedantic about Levy and ENIC.

 

[bus-conductor]

they're never gonna add this time on ffs

You want more of this?

 

[Kane's left]

The heart this Middlesbrough side have shown should really be an inspiration to our side. This is how you play football!!!

 

[JimothyCF14]

Players should personally refund the travel for each and every poor fucker who travelled all the way up there

 

[tommyboyspurs]

when is the dvd coming out

titled the nearly men part 22

 

[Luvf]

We can tie this

 

[N17-Tommo]

Fucking commentators trying to make out we are getting beat at home by a non league club..

 

[Igula]

It’s a bit of both

No it isn't.

Nothing Conte can do with the shit options he has. He set the team up as best he could with the shit options he has.

 

[Gazzapen]

I can't see how Harry, Son Kulu are blamed. We've played 4 away games in short succession. We don't have a great first team, what do we expect?.

It's Contés fault. Or that's what a few are gona say. You can expect to win a Horse race with Donkeys.

 

[StevenPL]

hes as much to blame as the lack of quality! hes yet again gone with winks and PEH in midfield when it has NEVER FUCKING WORKED AND NEVER WILL! winks is football suicide! proving it yet again tonight against a championship side

But who do we have? With injuries and the loss of 4 players in Jan with only two coming in....

 

[anderton46]

Winks positioning. With about 2 mins left and a goal needed. He sprints back to the halfway line while we are in possession in their half rather than looking to get forward.

 

[SpiderSpurs]

Great first match thread Mrs Perryman

 

[Eli]

Cup games away from home against half decent teams are always gonna be challenge especially for us how anybody thought we’d just turn up and win, no chance and after they beat us next round theyll get smoked 5-0

 

[ironvalentine]

I'm tellin' ya, James Acaster is a helluva keeper.

 

[CousinEddie]

FFS. Just blow the fucking whistle and let me get on with my life...

 

[Juno]

Who can blame him. Everyone from top to bottom letting him down.

Conte is by no means immune from criticism for this utter shambles tonight and some of the other shambles of recent weeks too.

Chris Wilder got the Middlesbrough job 5 days after Conte. At least Wilder is able to send out a team with a bit of fire in their bellies for a do or die, Cup tie.

 

[TonySoprano]

jesus christ that should have been 2

Winks left as last man..almost embarrassingly inept.
