As I said, we are bombarded constantly with so much information these days, wanted or other, from internets, colleagues, friends, girlfriends, relatives that I would find it tough enough to accept certain people are unknown, but I wouldn't stress about it.
Perhaps I just need to not talk to people so often or turn on the telly/computer
Sounds like MTV does be on a hell of a lot in your household

Have the Fabinho rumours completely died down? It's just I've been watching too much MTV lately and have lost touch with the transfer rumours.0 -

Firstly your judging off Carrick falls under into what I mentioned earlier, this type of rigid set of criteria that people and the media seem to have set in stone as too what makes a good MF player. Tough tackling, powerful runs, quick footed and lots of flair etc.............and yes all of that is important but player can be good in other ways. Also you said he is a good player just now but certain skills have stopped him from becoming a top player and my point was about those who don't rate him so are we even in disagreement?
When judging him to be a top player or not you have to start by judging him properly against similar players.
Carrick at the base of midfield he can bring in players to the attack, his choice of pass means he rarely gives the ball away, this allows the team to build from the back.
His awareness of whats going on around him, his ability to intercept passes, then get back into position what the gives the entire team an attacking stronghold in a game is where Carrick excels. A lot of this ugly stuff goes unseen and a lot of players don't want to do it or cant.
Scholes put it well
Carrick is not going to dance his way out of a situation like Iniesta, he knows that and doesn't play to that weakeness.
Similar players to judge him against and those considered top players would be Busquets and Pirlo. Pirlo is flashy and quick footed at getting away from players under preessure, Busquets less so but considered a master of his position and but was often and still by some overlooked and underated, as Carrick has said about him also. Those players have an avg of 1.7 interceptions per game, and have a passing success percentage of 92% and 88% respectively. Carricks right in the middle with 89%. In total Utd have won 68% of their games with Carrick and 62% without.
The problem comes when Carrick looks bad because the team is playing bad and is not allowed to use his football brain when we are constantly under pressure but nobody looks good in those situations and unfortunately that's been happening a lot to UTD lately.
So Carricks ability to shut down threats benefits the entire team, and this is before I even get to his creative side, which is massively underrated
Neville put it well in terms of Carricks positional awareness
After the cleaning up and firefighting duties Carrick is very forwarding thinking with his passing
All is all these combination of abilities is what makes Carrick a very strong player overall.
Just wanted to say, great post.0 -

In football, when somebody shouts out "The Agents are coming!", it doesn't mean the same thing it does in the Matrix.
Although considering the amount of money United pay to certain agents, I wouldn't be surprised if they were even more feared 0 -

I remember a management game I had back in the day on the original PlayStation, I think it was, you could just fast forward the season and skip to each transfer window.... that was the craic
And it was always the same players on transfer market at start of game

Wish I had known about that, there were only so many ways I could build around Sammer, Lothar Matthaus, Hierro and (Brazilian) Ronaldo in the same team back in FIFA Road to the World Cup '98.
