Skipper praises man of steel

Middlesbrough skipper Jonathan Woodgate praised goalkeeper Jason Steele after another fine display at the weekend.

The England Under-21 international made a number of important saves as Boro maintained their excellent record at Brighton courtesy of a 1-0 victory at the Amex Stadium.

"Steeley can be whoever he wants to be," Woodgate told the Northern Echo. "He's improving every day. He knows as much as anyone that you can't stand still as a keeper. This season he's been our best player, and hopefully he'll be here for many years."

Woodgate was himself making a welcome return to the side following a three-week lay-off due to a hamstring injury.
