Manchester United legend Bryan Robson arrived at Middlesbrough in 1994 as player-manager with exactly 800 appearances under his belt for club and country.
Over the course of three seasons, Robson made just 27 appearances for Boro - with 22 of those coming in his first term at the club. Though he hadn't played a single minute during the 1996/97 season, Robson decided to start himself at centre-back at Highbury against Arsenal in the Premier League on New Year's Day in 1997.
