Jeremie Aliadiere wants to focus on his own game
Middlesbrough striker Jeremie Aliadiere has said he does not feel threatened by the arrival of Brazilian striker Afonso Alves at the Riverside.

After hitting the winner in Saturday's 1-0 win against Fulham, the Frenchman said he wants to focus on his own game.

"It doesn't matter how many forwards we've got," Aliadiere told BBC Tees, "there's competition at any club.

"I want to concentrate on my own work and on the team. Scoring goals is the target for me."

After a slow start, in which he scored just once in his first 18 games, Gareth Southgate's �2m summer signing is beginning to settle in - and Saturday's goal was his second in three matches.

"I'm maybe more focused and getting into better positions to score goals," he added. "Suddenly it has just started happening, so I'm delighted."
