He's Here!

BORO unveiled their new arrival, Afonso Alves, at The Riverside stadium today in front of 2,000 fans.


Alves was granted his work Visa earlier in the week and made a Juninho-style appearance at his new home ground, vowing to be the answer to BORO's goal scorer dilemma.

Southgate is hoping that Alves will prove to be just as much a hit with the BORO faithful as Juninho was and believes that the Brazilian could line-up against Fulham on Saturday, provided he is fit enough.

However, I believe, that anything short of a broken leg and Alves will be in the side, either starting or on the bench on Saturday.
