Kim Hellberg reflects on tonight's defeat 💬

He’s got one last chance to stop using this back 5 shite or I’m going to Sweden and burning down every ikea

Kim always look very uncomfortable when we lose. Let’s not mention changing a winning formation the players have been drilled into for the number of weeks. I don’t understand, we are top of the league and bang in form. Then we go to Wrexham and play a back 3 with Ayling in ! And invite Wrexham to give us a game. Wrexham are fucking shite. Let’s stop overthinking games and take some accountability of your decisions Kim. One thing we have learned. Back 3 doesn’t work Ayling should never start MPH is an athlete not a footballer. Kyle Joesph is not a striker and has worst first touch I’ve ever seen.

Media and rival fans will frame this as "Boro are nothing without Lankshear", but that's not the case. We've had plenty of other goalscorers this season. We were just utterly dismal all over the pitch tonight.

5 at the back? More defensive against Moore? A team sat in the bottom half of the league, shambles Kim.

His nan wants her coat back

Boro lose Hellberg tries to tinker and changes the whole squad to fit Ayling in Boro won’t get anywhere near the premier league with Hellberg in charge as he will constantly do it time and time again The end .

He has to take responsibility for the formation and selections!

If we play like that again against Watford I’ll start to get worried, for now I’ll see it as a 1 off game

I think we just wanted it more. We turned it into a scrap and made it feel like an FA Cup tie. It was probably the worst time to play us after last Friday. Parky put the focus firmly on the players this week, and I felt if you'd got an early goal we might have crumbled.

Why is he still talking about being solid? He’s speaking like we are playing the run away league leaders or something. So strange to approach this game with such a negative mindset.

Called it wrong Set up in a 5 back against a poor team Go and take the game by the scruff, we’re top ffs. Strelec in for Lankshear - and get on with it. Got in our own way tonight. Learn a lesson

That back 5 / 3 formation is absolute dog shit and should be touched again ! Just stick with the back 4 of Neto Borges, Phillips, Malanda, Brittan !! It’s that easy; it’s tried and tested and works, don’t ever play Joseph again either, Strelec 100x better if Lankshear isn’t fit

Far too negative against a bang average side Kim. I hope you've learned from this? You know the score mate, sort it out. UTB!🇦🇹

“We were shit, the players were shit, my tactics were shit, an all round shit performance from is tonight” .. just say what everyone knows Kim, instead of saying we were solid, when we were in fact, shit.

How longs WL out for?

No acceptance he got it wrong, that was criminal playing that formation against a poor side

Don’t disagree with comments on here but I just got a feeling tonight it was the players letting the Lankshear wasn’t in the team get in their heads. They just didn’t commit to the usual attacks, I we had created the chances tonight we have over recent weeks we would have scored

Onto the next, still Top Kim will learn ( hopefully ) UTB

Lost for words Kim? Poor team selection and formation tonight. Never play with a back 3 again.

Stop fucking about with 5 at the back it can’t be any more obvious , we take a midfielder out in Mcgree where we normally overrun teams and dominate ,it’s on Kim this one , if Lankshear is injured fair enough replace him but keep the same formation and the rest of the team same

Well despite stupids comments, we are not a 1 man team🥱Those up front last night got no service anyway. Keeper needs to know what his actual defence is; changing it doesn’t gel the team. We lost one. We not gonna win every game so ppl losing their heads is insane imo #UTB

One man team 👀👀😆😆😆😂😂😂

You'd think we were bottom of the league. Typical Boro fans whining about still being top. #UTB

Got it very wrong tonight

What's he wearing

We fight then stopped listening

Ferme ta guelle 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩🖕🏽🖕🏽🖕🏽🖕🏽🖕🏽💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩.

Fk clean of change formation again again the worst attacking team in the league ffs

Interviewer always asks stupid questions “How important is it that we bounce back” NO SHIT

One of the best attacks in the league and one of the worst defensively that should have been in your mind before the game why set us up to inevitably fail

Shite

We desperately need this Pukstas guy to get fit and be as good as he looked for his former club, we have very little i. Reserve at the moment other than numbers.
