Good news from treatment room .

THERE was better news from the treatment room this afternoon for Julio Arca, Mido, Jonathan Woodgate and Andrew Taylor.
Arca has been out since September with medial ligament damage but is now back in full training although Gareth Southgate says the Aston Villa match may come too early for the playmaker.
But Woodgate will be hoping to be ready for the weekend after missing the last two games after damaging his hamstring.

Mido is also running following his groin injury but it is too early to say whether he will be available for weekend selection.

Andrew Taylor returned from England U21 duty prematurely due to the foot injury that forced him off against Bolton a fortnight ago. The youngster is also running but will not join full training until Thursday at the earliest.

And there was also updates for two of Boro's long term injury victims.
Robert Huth came through 90 minutes unscathed as the Reserves beat Glasgow Rangers 2-0 on Friday too add to his 60 minutes the previous week against Manchester United. He is still building up match fitness.
Brad Jones however is still some weeks away following his leg injury.
