Michael Carrick

Manchester United have been one of the few clubs to have a long history in European football. It has made their European nights even more special, which is also the opinion of the midfielder Michael Carrick as well.

The Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick has said that his teammates should be remaining calm ahead of the crucial Manchester derby this weekend.

This is one of the important matches played between the two clubs as it could have a huge say in the destination of the Premier league title. The former Tottenham midfielder has been one of the impressive performers for Sir Alex Ferguson's men this season. United have conceded a lot of goals this season, but they have also been breathtaking in attack. As a result, they sit top of the table going into the Manchester derby.

While there was some doubt over the signing of Shinji Kagawa during the summer, many supporters have now warmed to the Japanese international following several eye-catching performances. However, even though he has made a positive impression on the Premier League, Kagawa insists that he is not completely satisfied with the start he has made in Manchester and says that he needs to improve.

Michael Carrick has said that the Manchester United players should not take the Liverpool team lightly in their next match. These two teams will play against each other on Sunday at the Anfield.

The performance of the Liverpool team has been pretty dismal in the current season so far. The team is looking weak in every department and the players are making a number of mistakes in almost every match. The team is lacking the firepower up front, while, the defense is also not looking too strong.

Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick has said that he would be open towards returning to England national team. The 31-year-old midfielder has been in self-imposed exile from the national team.

England manager Roy Hodgson has said that he did not consider Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick for the Euro 2012 because the former Tottenham midfielder asked the England manager not to be considered for the squad, according to Man Utd News.

This comes as a shock admission from the England international, who is thought to have made his last appearance for the national team.

Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick has said that he does not believe the match against City in the Premier league will be the title decider. Manchester United will go into the Manchester derby, which has already been hyped as the biggest game in the history of the Premier league, three points ahead of their arch rivals.

Michael Carrick was quite sure of the fact that Manchester United could have converted their match against Chelsea into a victory win. He does realize that it was quite a bad start for the team who suffered an initial loss of 3-0.

However once Wayne Rooney scored two penalties there was a ray of hope set in for the team who were quite sure of making it a victory game.
