Aitor Karanka is upset with the demands of Middlesbrough fans on his team following the 3-1 defeat to West Ham United, saying the atomsphere at the Riverside Stadium was "awful" on Saturday.
Newly promoted Middlesbrough are 16th, four points above the relegation zone and Karanka wants more support from the fans as they fight to stay in the Premier League.
"I am really upset with the last 10 minutes because we didn't play in the way that we have to play, in the way that we know to play, and it was because the atmosphere was awful today because they [the crowd] demanded a lot of the players," he said.
