Boro to recall stars

13 August 2010 14:30
Middlesbrough manager Gordon Strachan will revert to his full-strength line up for the trip to Leicester. Strachan was without Kris Boyd, Stephen McManus, Barry Robson, Kevin Thomson and Tarmo Kink due to international call-ups in midweek but saw his weakened side win 2-1 at Chesterfield. Midfielder Rhys Williams will be missing for several months as he undergoes rehab for a serious pelvic problem while Willo Flood could miss most of the season. Flood dislocated his knee in last Saturday's 3-1 defeat to Ipswich after colliding with team-mate Matthew Bates and is expected to be on the sidelines for six months. Brad Jones continues to be linked with a move to Liverpool and Gary O'Neil is still out.
