Did he need to say that at the end?
So that’s Middlesbrough’s team talk sorted.
Nailed on 2-0 defeat.
Shots fired!!
I see Warnock is tipping us to go up through the Play Offs if Brentford finish in the top two;-

What's Bacuna done wrong here? He's respectful and complimentary towards Warnock and says he enjoyed playing under him. He says that if we get it right against Boro we should win, I'm glad to hear it. Nice interview.
I thought Bacuna spoke very well in the interview (on club TV).
Said what he thought with no anodyne cliches in sight. Good to see his confidence.
It's just the last line
"It's all about us. If we do the right thing, work hard and play the tactics the manager gave us, I don't think we have got any trouble beating Middlesbrough."
It comes across as arrogant and a classic "stick it up on the dressing room wall for the teamtalk" quote. Warnock knows our team inside out anyway, giving him "look how little they think of you" ammo to use to motivate Boro when there's so much at stake is just silly.
It was the last line about beating them easily enough which I thought wasn't the done thing. Even if you think we're gonna stuff this bunch of cloggers you say they're a good side and we're going to have to be at our best etc, keep your confidence to yourself. No need to give it an extra edge when they could be thinking their season is done. Maybe I'm worrying too much; we'll see.
Stupid comments, is there any need when we are playing them soon.
Warnock will love that interview.

I dont see anything wrong with it.
Nothing in there about middlesborough, and complimentary about warnock. He isn't labouring under any illusions about his own playing style
I'm replying to a lot of these now and I'm getting worried that I'm giving the impression that I care about this far more than I actually do (although I do think it's really idiotic and gives them an unnecessary boost) but if I were Boro I'd take "we won't have any trouble beating them" as a bad thing said about me.
I'll be back here saying I got hacked in a few days after we beat them 8-0, Glatzel (1) Ralls (1) Bacuna (6)
Bacuna did say that, yes, but only after saying 'as long as we do the right things', Warnock said almost the same in his interview to be fair. We're 6th and they're 18th so it's a pretty logical way to look at it, I doubt the Boro players see it as trash talking so relax and enjoy the 8-0.
