Keeping Middlesbrough in the Premier League this season would be the 'biggest single achievement of my life', claims caretaker boss Steve Agnew

Steve Agnew says keeping Middlesbrough in the Premier League this season would rank as the highlight of his football career.

The newly-appointed head coach may have seen numerous promotions and relegations in more than 30 years in the game, and a playing career spent in the midfields of Barnsley, Leicester City and Sunderland.

But he says being the boss who kept 19th-placed Boro up this season – coming in on a run of 10 league games without a win, and only 11 games remaining - would top the lot for him.
