RLB: BORO NOT A DERBY


RLB knows the craic when it comes to Boro, it isn't a derby. Interesting game, yes for sure, but we only have one derby and it's the unwashed black and whites.


INTERESTING BUT NOT A DERBY

"The most important derby from my knowledge is Newcastle. Middlesbrough will be an interesting fixture but I'm not sure for the supporters and fans it's a specific derby. I don't know for the players. For me, I like every game because it's always a new challenge and every challenge is exciting."


CONTROL THE EMOTION

"For the players, I don't know, we will see. We can control the emotion if we are focused on the game. We need to concentrate on what we do out of possession, in possession and at different moments of the game. When we are focused on the game we can solve this problem. As was the case at Plymouth, sometimes a specific event can change the rationality."


WELL ORGANISED SIDE

"It will be another interesting game against a team with a different style of play. They're a well organised team in and out of possession, with specific attention in the way of building the game. They're very narrow and very interesting. For us we will have specific attention on many details and it will be interesting to solve that problem. They are very good in possession and very structured with this ability to create in the central corridor."


WE KNOW THEIR STRENGTHS

"They're a very interesting team. We know their strength and know they are very structured. We know we can solve that because they don't have random ranges of different attack, so we know exactly how they can beat us which means we know exactly how we solve the problem. Now we need to execute it, which is not always easy."
