KJ Huntelaar did play for Heerenveen (even scored against us in the UEFA Cup a few seasons ago). He actually came through the academy at Feyenoord but was released as they didn't think he was at their standard. But he has always been regarded as a hot prospect in Holland and now he's realising some of that potential at Ajax and Holland. He would be tailor-made for the Premiership and I'm surprised someone like Man Utd haven't made enquiries about him considering they need a replacement for van Nisterooy.
It was a great result for Boro last night and I'm sort of pleased for you guys as it shows not every team is just willing to lay down and die everytime they come up against a big team. It was very pleasing to see Boro take it to Chelsea throughout the 90 minutes and get their just rewards at the end, despite the ref awarding every single decision to Chelsea.

I knew he scored against Newcastle i just didn't want to bring it up. It was a cracking goal aswell. :P Man U don't really need a replacement for Ruud, They already have Saha, Rooney,Solksjear, Giggs, Park. They're all capable of playing upfront. Plus Man Utd probaly couldn't be arsed with him, He wasn't rated around £30million so Man Utd won't like him. ^_^ Nor will Chelsea or Arsenal. Though he'll probaly be playing for Spurs, Newcastle or Liverpool next season :P
Boro never lay down and let any big team walk all over them, It's not our style. We always take it to Man Utd and most of the time come back with at least a point, We try to take it to Arsenal but we could never beat them not till last season. And again we always take it to Chelsea in fact for about 3 seasons running we've been unlucky not to get a point, Then last season we hammered them and we beat them again.
Boro's style is to let the minnows walk all over them expecting them not to score and nearly every season Middlesbrough have a big upset. Last season we let a 4-1 lead over Norwich slip to a 4-4 draw though that was a good game :P
