According to Pep:
"He's one of the best holding midfielders I've ever seen in my life, by far," Guardiola said.

"I am a big fan of Michael Carrick. Marcus Rashford is a good talent. You have outstanding players, you can do it with the national team."
I like how he mentions the 2 players to play one game for England at a knockout stage and get MOTM by pundits lol.
I remember the 2011 CL final, Carrick stopped a lot of goals that game by reading the game so well a long with Fabio.

I wonder if they watch Man Utd play. I reckon Man Utd are the clear favourites tonight as we are a better team. We are far more exciting to watch then Pragmatic Chelsea. If we didn't miss so many chances per game we would be clear of Chelsea let alone 15 points behind them with a game to play.
Burley said the same about Chelsea winning 2 or 3-0 against us at OT lol. Man Utd the most attacking team with Man City goalkeeper lol.

If Carrick played alongside a top holding midfielder willing to do all the dirty work for him, he would've been even better.
He had Fletcher for a while. Hargreaves too but for an even shorter time.

Time to show we are the best team in the premierleague tonight

How could the 5th best team in the league possibly do anything against the 4th best team that shows they are the best team in the prem tonight?

We are statistically the best team in the premierleague for performances but because we are so wasteful and teams score from like 1 shot on goal against us we draw so many games. Beating the smaller teams at home like Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur helped us not have a completely shocking home record.

Ah so you're the best team cos you don't score enough goals, concede too many and are poor at home. That makes sense.

According to Squawka we are and even whoscored.com rate us the best.

Our main weak point that stops us being top of the league is efficiency at both ends.
Ratings
Man Utd 7.04
Chelsea 7.02

Yeah we'd be the best team also if we scored more goals and conceded less. If only managers would catch on to this secret.

Whoscored is nonsense. At least the players strengths and weaknesses. It has darmain as a weak crosser, but doesn't mention that for Shaw who's arguably even worse. Apparently Phil Jones is an excellent crosser according to them.
