Michael Carrick's calming influence on the Manchester United midfield means he should be featuring more regularly under Jose Mourinho, according to former Liverpool midfielder Danny Murphy.
'He [Mourinho] played a lot of his experienced players and a few of them can be really pleased with their performances,' Murphy said on Match of the Day 2. 'One in particular I’ve always been a fan of is Michael Carrick. I’m so confused why he hasn’t played more minutes. He adds a stability to the team and a calmness they haven’t had in recent weeks.
'Yes he can’t quite do the miles he once did but he’s good at intercepting. He never panics and gets them out on the attack all the time.
'He makes things look simple and he’s always looking to play forward, through the lines, looking to be progressive, look to get those forward players on the ball in higher positions. They've missed this.
'Him being in the side helps players like Pogba. There’s no coincidence that Pogba probably had his best game in a Manchester United shirt [against Swansea) because he had Carrick behind him taking responsibility for possession and getting him the ball higher up the pitch.' |
