While the likes of George Friend, Darren Randolph, Ryan Shotton, Marvin Johnson and Paddy McNair have all been ruled out of the fixture against the Addicks, Woodgate has a few big selection calls to make. Scroll down and flick through our gallery to see who our Boro writer Joe Nicholson would start:
1. RWB: Jonny Howson
