"At the time I thought 'if I've done very well, why
is the club trying to sign Berbatov instead of signing
me' (I was on loan at the time). But, actually, Berbatov
has done very well for Spurs so I think they were right!"
Mido's start to his Boro career has been hampered by
a persistent groin injury, and he has had to watch from
the sidelines as Gareth Southgate's side has slipped
into the bottom three.
But the 24-year-old has no doubts that Southgate is
the right man for the job.
He said: "We haven't been lucky with injuries
or results, but the lads are responding to the gaffer
and that's the most important thing.
"I've played for so many clubs and worked with
so many different managers, and Southgate is doing everything
possible to get the maximum from the team.
"We are all behind him and he is totally in control
of the dressing room. The only reason you should sack
a manager is if he is not in control of the players,
and that is not the case."
It should be noted that Boro are lying deep into the
relegation zone and they need to improve their form
in order to avoid relegation at end of season as the
side faile to achieve any Premiership win since their
home win against Birmingham.
