His most important pass was an unexpected pass down the middle. When the team does the typical monotonous ground pass from wing to midfield to the opposite wing, he would often fake like he's going to the wing but make a sharp pass down the middle. That would often catch the other team off guard and would initiate a one-two between two attacking players (ex. Van Persie and Rooney).
You can give me Gerrard, Lamps and Scholes but Carrick would be the one that kept things together. An underrated football right through his career. If he was playing for Spain, Brazil, Italy or Germany he would have been a bigger hit. Should have had a young Carrick playing beside Pogba right now
Just now realizing Carrick was United’s Busquets. Not too flashy, keeps it simple and helps the team maintain their balance. And above all: GOOD BASIC TECHNIQUE, which seems to be missing with a lot of players nowadays
He had a very acute positional sense at covering funcions. And he is way more technical than Busquets. That is why he is, in my opinion, the best in that holding position. He adds the organizing dimension to the role that Makelele, Gattuso or Busquets lack. Xabi Alonso is also great at both tasks but he is clearly more an attack minded midfielder
@@firellparker7463 is Busquets more capable than Carrick was at passing? Only recently Busquets has discovered himself as an assist man. Carrick did that all along his carreer. Carrick is also better at long range shooting and they are equally good incorporating at the attack. Busquets is one of the best ever at shielding the defence, something at which Carrick was certainly way above average but not godlike Even Lampard said that Carrick was more technical than him since their West Ham days.
Michael Carrick was one of the most underrated midfielders ever! He saw everything going on the pitch. He always kept things simple and that was the key to his brilliance on the pitch as a deep lying defensive midfielder. He's the kind of midfielder United's current team badly needs. I also remember the varieties of long range intelligent passes Carrick sends to the strikers. Rooney scored many goals through Carrick's assists. His vision as a deep lying defensive midfielder was brilliant. I doff my Hat for Sir Alex Ferguson's foresight in bringing him and making him a key member of United's squad back then. Michael Carrick is arguably one of the best midfielders the English Premier League has ever seen.
He had what few other players ever had or will have, the ability to pick out a pass for a run that hasn't even started yet. Paul Scholes had that too. They both would send a pass from so deep down in the midfield the player receiving the ball didn't need to start the run until way after. Magic.
I know little about football but thought Carrick was so underrated especially by England. If he'd been Spanish, French, Italian he would've won 80+ caps. Always seemed to have so much time. Wish him all the luck in his next chapter.
Master of the pre-assist. Good defensively good in the air. Massively respected in Spain particularly by Xabi Alonso. Had the difficult task of replacing the irreplaceable Roy Keane and took a lot of the blame(a bit harshly) when they lost to Barca. Maybe lacked mobility but was all class
He was somehow a blend of Xavi and Busquets. His guile was that he would appear going through the motions and then, would kill you with a sudden move: a pass or a shot. An absolutely serene player. An anti Roy Keane, if I may, which is somehow funny and sad. It will be difficult now that he has moved on - from the sidelines as well. Thank you, Carrick, for the memories.
Looking at this just reminds me about the good old times in my life and also at United. When things were good I never had to worry about anything. Also at United I never worried like I worry now for us. It’s just sad that only Jones and Ashley young are the only ones left from all of them. Time changes mehn :(
Ahead of his time 🙌 simply one of the best of all time. Like a mold of zidane, busquest and xavi in one. Better than Ronaldo. He was the reason united won all those trophies. Legend
Look at how he always had time on the ball, that's how great players do, they always create time and space for themselves, he was always calm on the ball, if you watch most of the great midfielders like Sergio B, Xavi, Scholes etc they have this ability
Only player in our current team that has a bit of his qualities is McTominay..tall, simple style of play, good reading of the game and a good passing range. Only player I see that we can buy that has the similar style is Ruben neves
Colloquial Soliloquy I see your point but with the current roster I'm pretty sure Ole is gonna keep him as a CDM and keep it simple..I think fletcher is more adventurous and dynamic then Carrick, but Carrick is more composed and always in position to start an attack from the base of the midfield(Busquets) That's why I think McTominay is more a 'Carrick type of player. Weigl, Llorente, Carvalho, Gundogan and Neves also fits that description.
Mctominay can be a tank in the midfield but he's passing usually frustrates me. You can't be a CDM if you not a good passer. Carrick was a great passer.
Guardiola, who is a fucking great coach in spite of the controversy sorrounding his two UCL titles, said that Carrick was the only Man Utd player that would make it into Barcelona's starting 11. That screams of Carrick's qualities as a player
0:58 no offense to Carrick,good pass.But the end result was all because of the brilliance by Van Persie. That first touch was amazing and the finish, unbelievable!
Forward passes. . .not like side ways like Matic. . .James Garnar really plays like Carrick. . .he also have that defence splitting middle through pass
@@krizzy360 I would reckon it's because Carrick doesn't take long to pass a ball. His vision was sublime. One touch and pass most of the time. You wouldn't even have time to chase him down
Karan Bhardwaj morata is not good at finishing we have seen him miss plenty of chances, giroud is too slow to get in behind the defence and many teams play a high line in the premier league recently even if he did get in behind most defenders will catch up, and higuain is absolutely trash when he was on loan.
Always check you're shoulder when receiving the ball. Don't overcomplivated things. 2 or 3 touch max and keep the ball moving. Stay back and offer support to your centrebacks
Meh.. Carrick cost us in the big games with mistakes often.. but past his 30s he became better and didn't do it as much, not on the same level as Scholes etc
Carrick is a good footballer not more than that. Anything else is overrated. Of all English players...Glen Hoddle, Ray Wilkins, Steve Macnaman and Bryan Robson were better players.
Overrated. Couldn´t run, couldn´t defend, couldn´t shoot, couldn´t operate when pressed. Had good vision and passing range ONLY when he had time on the ball. Against top sides he always played like shite.
iShavedYesterday he could defend, he was great at intercepting, he would anticipate well and cover spaces. Typical didn’t see what carrick did for the team
@@timmitoz1380 Still couldn't run, couldn't tackle, couldn't shoot, couldn't operate when pressed. He's one of those players whose FEW skills shined only when he had amazing players around him: Rio and Vidic in defense, Scholes, Giggs and Keane in midfield, Rooney, Cantona, CR7, RVP as forwards. To compliment such an incredible squad all that was needed was a disciplined player, which Carrick was... BUT that is ALL he was. And let's not forget that when United started losing all of these great stars, Carrick's true comportment as a ONE DIMENSIONAL player became obvious. Average player on an amazing team. People call him "one of the greats" simply because he is English and has something like a dozen trophies, all of which United would have won whether or not Carrick was fucking born.
@@iShavedYesterday So you want him to run like Walcott?? Couldn't shoot?? The guy scored one of the most superb goals I've ever seen in the 7-1 win against Roma. Couldn't tackle??? I will just stop reading your comment from there. I don't get why you are sentimental with him. He will always be a great player to many people.

That's what Busquets always does as well.
@@zuphie9680 yeah usually to messi the pass in between the lines
such a humble player, true master of passing
Paul scholes?
@@cloud4565 this is a Carrick video his comment doesn't mean he doesn't appreciate Scholes for being humble and a master passer
You can give me Gerrard, Lamps and Scholes but Carrick would be the one that kept things together.
An underrated football right through his career. If he was playing for Spain, Brazil, Italy or Germany he would have been a bigger
hit.
Should have had a young Carrick playing beside Pogba right now
Check out James Garner. He's got a bit of Cazza about him.
True. If you watched the game, you couldn't see Carrick. But if you watched Carrick, you saw the whole game.
@@waaahl just like kuroko 😂😂
Alfonso Davidson we got a young Garner bro,he'l be fit in the seniors soon
I think old carrick is better i mean the older he gets he get better and better

I appreciate the love for passing in this video but damn the music makes me want to take a nap lol
Quality footballer. My favorite player.
I absolutely adore the footballing ability of Carra, but my God, that turn from RVP was insane. No doubt inspired by his Dutch idol.
A really, really fantastic midfielder. I can't help but see he and Busquets play just alike.
His pass accuracy is highly underrated wtf😳
At one stage he was known to be the the most accurate passer in Europe I remember it well. Great player
He was our backbone
He played very few backwards passes for his position
Unlike Mr Matic! waste of 40mil at 29
Unlike fred and mctominay
Carrick, Calm, Collected, Honoury Manc.
That pass at 2:54 was gorgeous.
Humble, Simple, the master creater of play in the midfield
Master of the pre-assist. Good defensively good in the air. Massively respected in Spain particularly by Xabi Alonso. Had the difficult task of replacing the irreplaceable Roy Keane and took a lot of the blame(a bit harshly) when they lost to Barca. Maybe lacked mobility but was all class
Oh yeah, his performance in the 2011 champions league final was abysmal, Scholes should of started as soon as he came on United were the better team
We definately miss his successor in the current squad. how i wish Mactomny gets to his levels quickly
Na...I don't think Scotty will be ever like Michael. Scott is a rash player. I think Michael technical ability is class.
He can reach this level he just needs to work on his composure and vision
@@alexolowu5471 that's the hardest part of the game anyone can improve.so mctominy is not going to be half as good as carrick

Always found the perfect weight of pass and kept it calm we could use someome like him in the team
Pep would love had Carrick for his City Team its amazing how in one second or less just he see his team mates and knee where and when he have to pass
We misse carrick

That time carrick was underrated now busquets
Forward passes. . .not like side ways like Matic. . .James Garnar really plays like Carrick. . .he also have that defence splitting middle through pass
And now he is the hairy faced assistant 👍
Lmao yep
An England midfield three of Scholes-Gerrard-Carrick would have been very solid. 😂
Simply underrated
Broooo, pleeassseee someone tell me the name of the song its so beutifulll
I see so much of Busquets in him ! Both are calm, quick passers, good passing accuracy and underrated !
This music reminds me of Minecraft
When we had a master passer we didn't have good finishers and now when we have 02 world class finishers we don't have a good passer.
Now Man Utd is in your hand.
Legenda
Could have played perfectly with messi
Like so much.
Fuck me that choice of music I’m looking for the nearest bus to jump under ?!?:(
Gripping ain't it 😵 I turned the volume off about 15 seconds in started to feel sorry for myself for a few seconds
Sergio busquets from England
insane pass accuration
Carrick, we apologise to you.
Ucarrick na miss huai lua
After Beckham, we have Carrick. So, now?
