Emerson could for that brief period have the best midfielder in the world, think he probably was.

He was still a class act when he played for that Greek outfit against us. Can’t remember the team name? He had it all. Poise, strength, passing ability,vision and a terrific shot. If he’d realised his potential he would’ve been world class in my opinion

Two Boatengs? That would be solid in the middle 😀

352? Can't say I'd pick much different. Try and find spots on the bench for Zenden, Ince and Merson maybe. Not sure who you leave out though.
 
Platt
Craggs Mowbray Southgate Ziege
Murdoch Souness Juninho
Hasslebaink Viduka Foggon

Subs
Schwarzer
Quedrue
Ugo
Boam
Armstrong
Zenden
Ripley

If it was under Covid-19 I'd add Emerson and Hickton to the bench.
 
4-3-1-2

GK Randolph
RB Geremi
LB Ziege
CB Southgate
CB Ehiogu
Mid Ince
Mid Emerson
Mid Merson
AM Juninho
ST Viduka
ST Boksic

I know Geremi and Ziege played at their best in CM for us but they played in the full back positions successfully for bigger clubs than us so I would put them there. Plus imagine a free kick scenario with Zieges left foot and Geremi’s right foot. Goals galore.
Throughout my time supporting Boro since 1990 we have struggled at RB. Only Luke Young has been very successful in my opinion. The rest have either been average or inconsistent.
 
GK- Schwarzer

RM-Traore

Also genuinely staggered at the number of people not including Paul Merson. The best player bar Juninho to pull on a Boro shirt in my lifetime in my opinion.
