Devastated Middlesbrough captain Ben Gibson has told talkSPORT the club’s relegation from the Premier League is the ‘lowest point’ in his life.

Boro’s drop back down to the Championship was finally confirmed on Monday following a 3-0 defeat to Chelsea.

The Teeside club have endured a torrid first campaign back in the top flight. Despite their commendable defensive record, conceding 48 goals, they have the lowest goal tally in the league and have recorded the fewest wins – only five.
