The disappointment of Swansea followed by a crucial win over QPR – how on earth can you make sense of this Middlesbrough side? And the same can be said of the Championship play-off race after another few days of twists and turns.
Dom is joined by Mark Drury from BBC Tees to pick the bones out of the QPR win. We discuss Jonny Howson, Neto Borges, the injury situation and assess potential Player of the Year candidates.

Howson is the only on field leader, that, I think, is what the team needs, nobody is there on the field to motivate etc.
Boro always keep you biting your nails or on the edge of your seat. A good performance last night now follow it up on Saturday.
Travis is a good shot stopper but it's awful on crosses.
It's obvious we need a solid RB, but I don't think RVB and Fry are leaders , both in important positions, do we need two new Centrebacks, who are solid experienced leaders
Scott will be snowed in down there
Azaz player of season stats wise. Doak young player of season for me.
Feels like we need a bit more grit in the team
I think Neto has grown in confidence because he now feels much more 'at home', and a real part of the Boro team, consequently now playing some great football.
The negativity towards Azaz is ridiculous. He’s the only player in the entire football league to have double figures in goals and assists, we’d be battling relegation without him. Let’s forget all that though because he had a quiet spell when the rest of the team were woefully out of the form.🙄
Clearly and obviously the player of the season.
