August 28 ,1968 ) is a former footballer, best known for his time at Middlesbrough. He joined the club in 1990 from Oxford for £375,000, making his home debut in a goalless draw against West Ham. When new player-managerBryan Robson took over at the club in 1994, Mustoe initially lost his place. However, he worked his way back into the side, becoming a consistent starter, featuring in all three of the club's Wembley finals and sharing the Middlesbrough "Player of the Year" withHamilton Ricard in 1999.When
Steve McClaren took over at the club in 2001, Mustoe was 33 and clearly not part of McLaren's future plans. However he again worked his way back into the team and played a prominent part in the 2001-2002 season. He left the club in the summer of 2002, having made 351 appearances, including a record number of Premiership starts, scoring 16 goals.He played a season at Charlton Athletic before ending his professional playing career in League One with Sheffield Wednesday. Mustoe is currently an assistant coach for
Boston College Men's Soccer team inChestnut Hill, MA . He also can be seen as an expert analyst onESPN on the Press Pass program and heard as a co-commentator on football broadcasts on the Pac Rim and Atlantic networks.In his book
Woody and Nord , Gareth Southgate describes Mustoe as 'one of the most honest professionals in the game.'
