Middlesbrough are struggling for goals in the absence of Tuncay Sanli, admits defender David Wheater.

He told Boro's website: "I think we miss Tuncay a little bit - he creates all sorts of chances and the sooner he gets fit, the better.

"Saying that, with Mido and (Afonso) Afonso up front, there are two great strikers who are desperate for goals, so don't underestimate them."
