Youngsters see Boro through

Last updated : 01 August 2007 By FootyMad
Now two wins in six pre-season games with AZ Alkmaar coming up at home at 15:00 on Saturday. Admission £10.

Only two of yesterdays 18-man squad had any real term first team experience (both recently signed up), Euell and Rochemback. Although exprienced new signing Luke Young was also included for the trip.

Given that Rochemback is suspended for the first three games of this season it is highly probable that none of these players are in Southgate's mind to start the first game of the 2007/08 campaign (aside from Young).

Interesting to see the re-apperance of last summer's young signing Goulon.

Boro were 1-0 up at the interval and added a second early in the second half. Scorers were Kennedy and Hutchinson.

Squad:
Jones (Knight), Young, Grounds, Williams (Thompson), Hines, Walker, Goulon (Hutchinson), Rochemback, Euell, Craddock, Kennedy
Unused Subs: Cronesberry, Franks, Johnson (J), Smallwood
