ChampionshipMiddlesbrough midfielder Stewart Downing has no regrets about his decision to leave West Ham in the summer.

The 31-year-old made 37 Premier League appearances for the Hammers last season but turned his back on regular top-flight football to rejoin his boyhood club in July.

Asked whether he regrets leaving West Ham, Downing told the Telegraph: "I might do if we don't get promoted, but no, not really.

"I've had no regrets up till now. We're in a good position in the league and after tomorrow night we could be in the semi-final of the cup."
