Middlesbrough really need to get a win today but it won't be easy for them down at Ashton Gate as they face Bristol City.

The men from Teesside have had a tough campaign so far with them perhaps not hitting the heights expected of them at the start of the campaign.

When they are good, though, they are a match for anyone and Garry Monk and his side just need to increase their levels of consistency at the moment.

Certainly, they've struggled to do that so far and it remains to be seen whether or not they can rally today and get three points against a very impressive Robins side.

We've been thinking, though, perhaps Boro should look to bring in their former star Calum Chambers once again from Arsenal.

He's a good player in the middle of defence and though the likes of Dael Fry have played well at times this season, a back-line of Ben Gibson and Chambers is very strong on paper.

Indeed, it was good in the Premier League so they'd surely help take Boro to the sharper end of the division.

Sure, he's still at Arsenal and playing on and off but he could do with another stint away playing regularly and Boro might be at an advantage.

Chambers had a good time at the Riverside last season and though Boro are now in the Championship, Chambers is only really playing outside of the Premier League at the moment for Arsenal.

It would be worth a punt.
