Middlesbrough striker Patrick Bamford has likened manager Aitor Karanka to Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho.
Bamford is on-loan at Boro from Chelsea.
And following their FA Cup win at Manchester City, he was asked if Karanka's methods compared to Mourinho's.
"Yes, definitely," he said. "Training is very similar and the big thing is the desire to win. You could see that on Saturday - the passion, every detail is in there.
"He doesn't miss out a thing and he is very rigorous with his approach to every single game, whether it is Manchester City or whoever else we might play.
"Even if it was a lower-league team in the cup, it would be the same approach. It is all about winning."
Asked if Karanka could then be considered a 'mini Mourinho', Bamford said: "Yes, I think he is getting there!"
