Jonathan Woodgate has warned Middlesbrough he won't tolerate a mid-table finish this season.
He said: "I didn't come to Middlesbrough to consolidate in the league.
"I came here to get into Europe. Consolidation is failure for me.
"I think that we can get into the UEFA Cup. Obviously you look at the top four places and think they are taken, but every other place is up for grabs."
