Middlesbrough boss sends strong warning to Chelsea ahead of Carabao Cup semi-final clash on Tuesday
Middlesbrough boss Michael Carrick has warned Chelsea that Tuesday’s Carabao Cup semi-final clash against Chelsea will be different.
Speaking after Middlesbrough’s 1-0 FA Cup defeat to Aston Villa, Carrick said: “Tuesday is different.
“This was a one off and obviously it’s the first round for us [third round overall]. Tuesday is that bit closer, it’s a different kind of opportunity and hopefully this place will be rocking and what I expect on Tuesday is a different type of feeling really. The boys will be really looking forward to it.
“Massive challenge with a terrific team and unbelievable players but we’ll take that on and we’ve earned it so you’ve got to be in it to win it.”
