      I've a feeling he'll be on the bench but will definetely come on at some stage.

      I'm looking forward to seeing him this season, he's a world class player in the making. No doubt bout it.

        I think we missed him as much as we missed Mascher against The Maccums.I think he`ll start.if we`re up then he`ll get subbed.

          Subs:Arbeloa, Diego Cav, Hyppia, Aurelio, Kuyt, Yossi, Ngog.

          Torres loves playing Boro. Worth a bet to score in 90 minutes.

            i'd go with:

            ---------------reina------------
            arbeloa----agger-----carra----aurelio
            -------gerard------alonso--------
            benni-------keane-------babel--
            -----------torres-----------

            creativity, pace, width, attacking full backs and strong midfield.

                Grrr. Too quick for me.

                Anyway, I's like to see Dossena a bit more.

                  I'd start Spearing in this game at the expense of Plessis. We need attacking clever players who can break them open. Its the sort of game he may excel in and then we'll know if he's good enough or not. Its a gamble but at least an attacking one. If he looks sadely out of place pull him off at half time. I'd also play Darby at right back. Its time we had a bit of freshness in the team.

                  So for me it'd be, Reina, Darby, Carra, Agger, Dossena, Gerrard, Spearing, Alonso, Keane, Torres, Benni.

                    Actually, I think i'd play Pennant on the right instead of Yossi.

                      while I would like to see some of the younger players getting an opportunity I don't think Rafa will take many chances against a fairly quick 'boro* side and will use the first home game as a statement of intent. :fingerscrossedsmiley:.

                      ---------------Reina----------------
                      Arbeloa--Skrtel--Carra--Dossena
                      --------------Alonso----------------
                      Kuyt--------------------------Babel
                      --------------Gerrard---------------
                      ----------Keane-----Torres---------

                        I think Boro are better than a lot of people think. We need to give them respect and I want us to put out a strong experienced side. I would like to have Babel (if he is ready) in the team as they are comparatively weak out wide (as shown by Wheater being moved to fullback last weak).

                        Still we need to go out and dominate them. The first 20 minutes is key for me and I'm tempted to say:

                        --------------Reina-------------
                        Arbeloa-Carra-Agger-Dossena
                        -------Plessis---Alonso---------
                        Gerrard-----Keane--------Babel
                        -------------Torres--------------

                        But I would be happy to see Yossi in for Babel. Realistically I think Gerrard will be central with Alonso and Kuyt on the right.
