Middlesbrough captain Emanuel Pogatetz has urged manager Gareth Southgate to resist offers for their best players.

Chelsea want Tuncay Sanli, while winger Stewart Downing is being linked with Tottenham and Pogatetz says: "We have to keep our best players. We have sold a few over the last couple of years and didn't bring in a lot of replacements. We have a young squad with a bright future but you want your international stars to stay."
