Boro boss urges transfer caution
Middlesbrough boss Gareth Southgate insists splashing the cash might not be the only answer as he seeks to move his side further away from the Barclays Premiership relegation zone.
Southgate takes his side to Everton on Boxing Day convinced he has got to strike the right balance between his host of young talent and any new buys in the January transfer window. Home-grown stars Stewart Downing, Andrew Davies, James Morrison and Andrew Taylor all started in Saturday's comfortable 2-0 victory over Charlton at the Riverside Stadium.
But Southgate admitted: "Different players are at different levels. Players like Andrew Taylor have come in this year and they have been incredibly accomplished. But one or two are not quite ready yet. The team is generally very young and you have got to ride with the problems that brings. We have to be careful we do not think short-term about anything."
