Woodgate’s views on Boro’s transfer business

Middlesbrough defender Jonathan Woodgate has praised Aitor Karanka’s dealings in the loan market as Boro secured the signings of Fernando Amorebieta and Dwight Tiendalli.

Woodgate, who has made just 3 league appearances for high-flying Middlesbrough this season due to injury, is back in the squad and prepared to play through the pain barrier as they strive for promotion. Speaking to GazzetteLive about the defensive reinforcements brought into the club, Woodgate said “I watched Fernando a lot when he was at Athletico Bilbao and I knew he was a very a good player. With a change of scenery, a Spanish-speaking manager who believes in him and having the other Spanish players we have here, I think he’ll be a good signing, especially at this critical point of the season.”

35 year old Woodgate also spoke positively about the addition of Dwight Tiendalli, on loan from Swansea. “Dwight has good calibre for the team too. He’s played in Holland and in the Premier League with Swansea and he’ll have a point to prove as well.”
