This is all dependent on our midfield. Hendrick was just starting to look like he has adapted, now he is suspended. Doubts over Marney being fit. Could be a makeshift midfield today.

Didn't need to worry about that with Gray in form...

I thought Middlesbrough were poor. That was the worst team I have seen us play in a long time, including the Championship. Mannone had a 'mare. Good to see Gray back to form though as you say. I fear for them against Liverpool.

Got half the going team to that African Cup of nations too and Defoe linked with a move away.

Still they beat us!

They lost Lamine Kone (collided with hoardings) and Victor Anichebe (hamstring) today too.

They'll be fielding their U21's at this rate.
