Tuncay tees up a winner
It would be criminally easy to salute Tuncay as man of the match. Stewart Downing too. But it was the guy who was loathe to play football such a short time ago. Chris Riggott maintained his top form for another week. Tasked with marking the pacy Gabriel Agbonlahor, the Boro man delivered critical and thoughtful challenges. Attacking angles were cut out, and desperate Villa balls into the box more often than not met his head to clearance.
Astoundingly he made us forget David Wheater was tethered to the bench. The senior Boro man has converted the despair from the football nadir to a return of aggressive form. He’s capitalized on injuries and suspensions to command a recurring role in Boro’s improving back line. Chris Riggott = Peroni!!
Never Been to Boro
Talks reportedly underway to secure our in form first year keeper Ross Turnbull – long overdue…the whole purpose of allowing him to battle Jonesy for the top slot was to allow someone to excel and shine…he’s clearly demonstrated it, so pay him. Extending the original shout out to Stewie…we were all down on him – and he was clearly down on himself. His form @ Villa was exquisite…dominating the left hand side of Villa’s half, cutting inside at will, inventive balls to his attack, great efforts on goal
next match – 16 Nov @ Everton…coverage on Setanta or Setanta Broadband
