Can you name Middlesbrough’s XI from their 8-1 win over Man City, 2008?

Some results appear extremely strange looking back and none more so than Middlesbrough‘s 8-1 victory over Manchester City in May 2008.

On the final day of the 2007-08 Premier League season, City travelled to the North East hoping to cap a memorable campaign with a victory. Instead, they were thrashed by Gareth Southgate’s Boro and Sven-Goran Eriksson was sacked shortly after.

“It was a great performance to say goodbye to our fans,” Boro boss Gareth Southgate told the BBC after the match concluded.

“The circumstances at City may have made things difficult for them and it was a massive uphill task once Richard Dunne has been sent off.

“Dunne did not mean to bring [blank] down but I don’t think the referee had a lot of choice but to send him off.”

We’re asking you to name the Middlesbrough XI from that afternoon in 2008.
