The English midfielder confirms that the Red Devils intend to win the Europa League and maintain their credentials as one of the best football clubs in Europe by doing so...
Manchester United’s midfield has been a subject of criticism throughout the Premier League season but one man who has earned praise from his manager as well as media commentators is http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Michael-Carrick-c25282. The Manchester United playmaker
has picked up his form since the December of last year and in doing so, he has regularly maintained a place in the first team line up at Old Trafford.
Not only that, in a period of injuries where the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Tom-Cleverley-c35218 have been sidelined through various reasons across the season, Carrick has maintained his fitness levels and also formed an understanding with
varying midfield partners such as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson will hope that his central midfielder can maintain his run of form till the end of the season, something that will be fruitful for United’s chances of doing well in
the Europa League as well as the English Premier League.
Carrick recently said in his interview to the media, "It is still a European competition (Europa League), it is one we are desperate to win. We have never really been part of it. Who knows when the chance to win it will come round
again? We want to grasp it. As players and, as a club, we are determined to go far.”
He added, "It doesn't take much motivation from the players' point of view. It's a competition we want to win. I want to win it. I've never played in this competition. We are still desperate to go as far as we would do in the Champions
League."
Manchester United are set to play the first leg of their round of 16 tie against Athletic Bilbao at Old Trafford on Thursday, 8th of March. It will be interesting to see how the Red Devils line up against the tactically
astute http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marcelo-c23554 Bielsa’s side, a man who has been looking forward to this fixture in question himself since the draw was made.
