GORDON STRACHAN'S claim that he wouldn't use Boro's last game of the season to experiment has proved to be a red herring with Jeremie Aliadiere, Chris Riggott and Luke Williams all in the starting line up.[LNB] The manager had also said this week that he hoped to have supporters' player of the year Gary O'Neil to call on today but the midfielder is not included in the squad facing the Sky Blues.[LNB] Lee Miller has a chance to impress alongside Scott McDonald while Barry Robson has been named captain. Rhys Williams stars despite continuing to suffer from a pelvic injury.[LNB] Martin Cranie has passed a late fitness test and starts for Coventry.[LNB] MIDLESBROUGH:(4-4-2)Jones;Hoyte,Riggott,McManus,Bennett;Aliadiere,Robson, R Williams,L Williams;Miller,McDonald.
