carrick its time to show if your up for it at united
this game and the game against benfica are games in which carricks needs to show if he is up for it at this club...
its all well playing easily balls ad trying not to stand out like a newly promoted reserve and occasionally coming up with a few 30 yarders but this is where we will see if carrick can cut the mustard. we need wins agaisnt chelsea and benfica and carricks needs to have a*very* good game. we didnt pay £5m or so for him. we paid a fee in the region on £18m..... |

I think he's improved game on game. Always worried about his attitude though and perhaps a lack of drive. Showed up for me versus Celtic where United passed the ball for fun instead of to a purpose i.e. a goal.
We'll see. If it's a nominal 442 and scholes/carrick win the midfield then he's passed with flying colours. |

if you look at our team forward of the defence you can see a match winner in all of them giggs - the genuis can get us a winner scholes - has done so many times rooney - most games ronaldo - most games saha - has done and can do carrick - ? today is a big game in which we need big players. cariick up until now has played well when everyone has played well hence never winning man of the match where as all the players above have been mom of the match and some point this season. we need a matchwinner imo and for 18m i thinkw e should be getting one. it,however is not too late for carrick to prove me wrong. |

if carrick cant have an inpact on games against chelsea and crucial european games then whats the point in buying him... we would still piss 2nd place and get knocked out of europe without him. |

Answer me this then do you think we would have won half of the matches we have done with midfield pairing of scholes & O'shea,no I don't and I'm not justyifying carricks value worth to the team etc but for me Scholes and Carrick have been Thee best premiership pairing so far Have you watched all our games every minute of them if so you will realise aswell as playing the simple ball's keeping things ticking over he is well capable of finding a pass out that you couldnt even dream of from the stands and that is why he is worth so much to us |

No surprise that Fletcher has been used out wide when he's played this season. The odd game where he's featured in the centre minus Carrick has seen Utd lose the ball quite easily. He's played well this season to be fair to the lad but his mistakes aren't as serious when he's out wide. And he's still made plenty. So when we lose today I suspect this will end up like RI main? Carrick is shit etc, despite 10 others being on the pitch who most probably played very poorly. Oh and for the record, the fee is just under £14million - not that it has anything to do with the player nor should it be used as a stick to beat him with. I'll be very happy if he costs the full amount though. It means we've won a few trophies and the lads done well. |

We could hardly keep the ball against them last season and were lucky to scrape a win. I'm hoping it's different this time and as much as I rate the lad, I can't see him standing out against the likes of Essien and Makelele today. Ballack too.
Which is a pity. But there you go. Still won't slate the lad as I think he's made a huge difference this season. |

we should be able to pass these to death but if the final ball goes astray they could just counter through the centre and be in on goal all too quickly.
We certainly won't overpower them and hopefully Fergie won't even try. No Rooney on the left though. I've been shocked by the criticism Saha has got this week btw. |
