Michael Carrick is enjoying one of his best seasons at the club and after almost seven years believes that we are the perfect club for him. “Yeh, I’d have to say that,” Carrick said when asked if United were the perfect club for him. “For me it’s the best club. Just everything about it. The [...]
Despite playing over 300 games for Manchester United, Michael Carrick has only made 27 appearances for his country. With too many England managers persevering with the failed Lampard-Gerrard partnership, Carrick insists that he has to respect the decision of those who didn’t pick him, and that life at United keeps him busy. “I haven’t let [...]

“Oh, oh, oh, it’s Carrick, you know, it’s hard to believe it’s not Scholes” is the song that was first penned years ago for Michael Carrick. The fact that a lot of fans (rightly) didn’t see him on a level with Scholes probably contributed to it not really taking off. However, this afternoon, in our [...]
Despite first being sung years ago, Michael Carrick’s never really had a song sung en masse in all his time at United, until Loftus Road’s away end erupted in the second half today. I imagine we will be hearing a lot more of this song now…
Following yesterday’s defeat against Norwich, Ryan Giggs was on the receiving end of much of the criticism.

Despite statistically being the most effective English [...]
When Manchester United have a defensive injury crisis, Michael Carrick is usually called upon to play in the centre of defence.
