McEachran is confident he made the right choice in linking up with Boro, a club pushing hard for promotion back to the Premier League. He added: "I could have gone to a few teams but I met Tony (Mowbray), got on with him and his assistant Mark Venus, saw the training ground. I know his style is to get the ball down, pass it through midfield, so it was an easy choice. "I am playing games, which is what I came to do, and Middlesbrough are doing well. The standard is good, really competitive, anyone can beat anyone. "My body is getting used to it but I am feeling fitter than ever and training is not as intense because of all the games."
