Southgate planning for promotion
Middlesbrough boss Gareth Southgate has declared himself the right man to take the club back into the Premier League after their relegation was sealed with a 2-1 defeat by West Ham.
Boro needed a win to have any chance of staying up but they failed to keep their side of the deal, with Junior Stanislas grabbing the winner at Upton Park.
"I would like to stay, I think I've proven (myself) for the first two and a half years," Southgate said. "Nothing has been discussed with the chairman, we have to sit down this week and plan more definitely what is going to happen. It will be a tough challenge and we'll have to improve.
"We're ready to make those changes because it clearly hasn't worked this year."
Southgate, however, is braced for his top players leaving the club.
"There will be personal agendas and as a club we will have to bring some money in to go forward," he said. "There are also situations I want to change. Inevitably, there will be big changes to the playing squad."
