Tony Mowbray has said that his Middlesbrough side need to be more ruthless after winning just one of their opening seven league fixtures.
Middlesbrough threw away a two-goal lead in their last Championship fixture against Nottingham Forest and the manager says that he wants no more slip-ups from his side.
"We have an opportunity to take some points over the next four or five games," he told BBC Tees.
"We have to be ruthless. Ultimately we need points to be where we want to be.
"We have a run of games coming up now where we need to take maximum points."
Middlesbrough host Bournemouth in the Championship on September 21.
