It's what makes this (at times) a Forum. With interesting and divergent viewpoints. No one really distinguished themselves first half yesterday except perhaps Carsley. So it could be argued that at 0-2 down at HT they were all ineffective.

There were several contenders for MoM yesterday. Danico was (as you suggest) not among them. Carsley was immense. My only criticism is that he overhits corners occasionally.

Edwards is a bit of a legend. Going forwards there is always a frisson: a hope that something might be the end result. Boro used to have loads of players with that kind of charisma. It's nice to see it returning. Last few seasons under You Know Who there were too few heroes.

Recci's two goals especially the second which our neutral viewer (rightly) admired were turning points.

Subs yesterday were (as have often proved this season) pivotal. That's been a highlight every game for me. We have gamechangers in virtually every position and coaches who know how to use them to freshen things up.
