Michael Carrick announces the verdict for Paul Warne and the “unlucky” things about Derby County.
Today, as they get ready to visit the Rams this weekend, the Boro boss held his press conference. Michael Carrick believes that Derby County will present a “tough” test for his Middlesbrough team on Saturday and that he has full respect for Paul Warne’s work there. Boro travel to Pride Park on Saturday at 12:30 p.m. for Derby’s first home Championship league game of the season. This season, Carrick’s team is expected to be in the play-offs, and they come into the game after a convincing victory over Leeds in the Carabao Cup in midweek. However, Derby will be looking to win their first game of the season under Warne, who earned his fourth promotion of his career last season, earning praise from Boro manager Carrick. He stated, “It will be a significant occasion for them, and they will be fervently hoping for a result.” “Knowing what we’re in for and what kind of game it will be is really the most important thing for us.” “A great accomplishment is a promotion in any division. He deserves credit for being able to pull that off again (promotion). “It’s hard to play against them. Last week, I thought they were extremely unfortunate to lose to Blackburn. They played extremely well, especially in the second half, in my opinion. “You can see what they care about and the difficulty they will present for us. His work has earned me complete respect.”
