Team for Middlesbrough

With Jamie Ward ruled out for 3-4 weeks with a hamstring injury, most would expect Theo Robinson or Nathan Tyson to be brought in as a replacement.

However, on Sunday when Ward left the field, Nigel Clough brought Michael Jacobs on to play down the left and Will Hughes was moved into the middle.

Hughes looks so much better in the middle and from that point we totally bossed midfield.

Jacobs is a left sided player and Tyson can play on the left or in a central striking role.

So do we go 4-5-1 with Jacobs or Tyson on the left and move Hughes to the middle or 4-4-2 with Hughes on the left and Robinson or Tyson up front to partner Sammon?

There is another option and that would be resting Hendrick and play Hughes in the middle with Jacobs on the left and Robinson or Tyson alongside Sammon. Nigel Clough though wont leave Hendrick out, or would he?

Decisions!
