Boro may be back on the top of the table but Aitor Karanka is more pleased that his team have returned to winning ways.
Tuesday's 3-0 victory over Millwall at the Riverside gives Boro a one point lead over former leaders Derby, who lost 2-0 at Brighton.
Patrick Bamford opened the scoring in the 26 minute before Kike Garcia made it 2-0 on the half hour mark.
Jelle Vossen sealed the win when he came off the bench to score Boro's third in the 78 minute.
“Whether we are first, second or third is not important now,” said Karanka.
“The best thing is that we have one game less and three more points.
“I am very proud of my players,” added the Boro boss.
“After the game at Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday we knew it would be difficult, but their response was perfect.
“Now we have to recover as soon as possible because we have a very tough game at Nottingham Forest on Saturday.”
