    Middlesbrough head coach Michael Carrick said it was a "good point" after his side earned a 1-1 draw at Burnley.

    "If you go into the changing room, there's a tinge of disappointment, which is a good sign for me," Carrick told BBC Radio Tees.

    "The boys are a bit disappointed that we haven't won the game, albeit respectful and accepting the way the game was and how tight it was in some aspects.

    "We're striving for more, we're hoping for more. Tonight we couldn't quite get it but we'll certainly take it and use it as a positive going into the games coming up."

    On ending Burnley's run of five straight clean sheets, Carrick said: "They're very good defensively, Scotty [Parker] has got them really well organised, not giving a lot away at all through the whole season really.

    "It shows some of our play at times was really good and I think we're a little bit disappointed that we haven't had another goal. But maybe they're similar. They had moments around our box as well."

    Michael Carrick has been speaking to the press before Middlesbrough's upcoming trip to Burnley on Friday (20:00 GMT).

    Here are some of the key lines:

    • Keeper Seny Dieng is back in training as Sol Brynn is praised for his performances in goal throughout Dieng's absence

    • He credits the team's "togetherness" for their ability to comeback having lost in a tight 1-0 against Blackburn Rovers three days prior to their 3-1 win against Hull City on Saturday

    • On creating a positive environment for the players: "Football is one thing but everyone being in a good place is another thing so when someone is having a tough time, we've all got to be there to look after them."

    • On having to face promotion contenders Burnley and Leeds United in succession: "You're on that treadmill and you never get off it. That's the beauty of it, that's the challenge, that's the test - but certainly these next two games are a challenge."

    • "Burnley are efficient in what they do and they are a good team. We kind of know what we are getting ourselves into."

    • In reflection of the last time they faced Burnley two years ago, which resulted in a 2-1 loss: "We are better now than we have been since I've been here for different reasons - a little more rounded as a team and as a squad. We feel that we are in a stronger place."

    • On Burnley boss Scott Parker: "He certainly always had a real presence and a confidence and that leader type of personality. From that side of things, looking at it, it doesn't surprise that he's done really well."

    Middlesbrough boss Michael Carrick has given an update on some of Boro's injury worries prior to their upcoming trip to Burnley on Friday.

    Goalkeeper Seny Dieng and midfielder Riley McGree have returned to training with defender Rav van den Berg also back.

    Midfielder Aidan Morris is also back on the training pitch but is not expected to return to the team as quickly while defender Darragh Lenihan will not be back before Christmas as he recovers from his long-term ankle injury.

    As for Alex Bangura, Carrick is "hopeful" that the left-back will be able to return to the squad later in the season following an Achilles injury picked up in pre-season.
