He tweeted on Sunday that his "foot was getting stronger all the time" . He's now training outside. Last club word was could be back "by christmas". That of course is 13 days away now... Perhaps in squad for Bournemouth on NYDay but don't count on it.
so here's my likely team for Boro based on news coming out about fitness etc
Brez, Calde, Upson, El Abd, Bruno, Ince, Bridcutt, Crofts, David, Barnes, Conway
Walton, Maksimenko/Chicksen, Andrews/Agustien, Dunk, KLL, Ulloa (if fit)/Lita, Buckley
its hard now. Strong squad. Orlandi/CMS to go...
