Carrick is going to embarras the Spurs midfield yet again as he did against liverpool.

As for Schweinsteiger, I watch the guy fairly frequently and don't get the fuss about him. Doesn't have the passing range of a Scholes or Pirlo, or the technique and elegance of Iniesta or Silva, or the power and athleticism of Toure, or the vision of Cesc or Ozil. He doesn't score as many as he should as well. His reputation was somewhat overblown after playing a blinder at the World Cup against England. I'd have his Bayern team mate, Kroos, above him.

Anyone knows how Javi Martinez has done so far for Munich after his big money move?

Pirlo**

That is because Carrick is world class or nearly. Why do you think he has been ever present in our side for so long?
--------------
No. There is no way a man who has been a consistent performer for one of the most succeful sides in Europe over the past 6 years can be any good.

You 2 are silly Carrick has only been playing good for about 2 years now not his WHOLE time at United he hasn't been your full stand out midfielder Fletcher was running things a few years back, Carrick is just a very good in form player right now he is even low in the pecking order for England!

Leave United talk to United fans. You clearly have no idea what you are talking about

I don't need to be a United supporter to know who was playing well at what time

Marchisio - Juventus
Moutinho - Porto
Gonsalez Lucho - former Porto
Montolivio - Fiorentina
Inler - Udinese?
