    We do yeah, look at our thread, RR can't stop going on about Carrick, Sneidjer and Nasri, but saying shit like Carrick can't pass... Neutral

    Bet you anything Carrick's pass percentage is better than Adam's. It wouldn't be hard to beat.

    I'll leave you to find the stats as I don't give a shit either way..

    Neither do I. I just think saying stuff like Carrick can't pass the ball is just stupid. Laughing Don't think I expected anything else though.

    Carrick is the better player. He is a much better play. Adam is a fat slob who just had a few good games for a super confident Blackpool team.

    Yes, but my improvements allow a position for Carrick. He was extremely efficient 2006-09 for us.

    It's a mystery to you because you're pretty thick and don't really understand football. Nearly all midfielders in the Premier League are worse than Carrick, and he would walk into your team. Ferguson keeps picking him, I think he knows a bit more about football than you do.


    Would he fuck Laughing

    Ferguson keeps picking him because your midfield is a fucking shambles. Probably think's he will spring into this world class midfielder under his guidance. You would have thought the penny would have dropped for the old fart by now.

    That explains why we've been so unsuccessful over the past 5 years, we've been carrying a passenger in Carrick. God, I hope the penny drops soon.

    Every great team has some flaw and your's is the midfielder.
    Midfield is the weakest area of our team, for sure, but to say Carrick is the worst midfielder that you've ever seen, or to imagine you could get away with playing such a shit player and still win nearly everything over a 5 year period is preposterous.

    I see it as exaggeration, like when you say stuff like (for example), 'he's the worst player ever'.

    I don't think he literally meant that.

    Do you?

    Quite clearly the answer is Michael Carrick for ovious reasons Neutral

    It is like Paul Scholes was saying the other day. Certain individuals are greedy. They go for the hollywood passes all the time to make themseleves look good in front of the nation. This certainly applies to players such as Adam and Gerrard. the media raves over a 1/10 successful hollywood pass that they make, and then they get publicised as the next best thing, when, in reality they are just another run of the mill midfielder who can't dictate a game.

    Carrick on the other hand is a superb team player. Never in the limelight and just does his job that he is set to do. A player with excellent workrate and understanding of football.

    It is a shame that England idiotically chose hollywood players such as Gerrard and Lampard over natural born winners and team players such as Scholes and Carrick.

    The reason England are so poor is because Gerrard and Lampard have never dictated a midfield Rolling Eyes

    Both overrated.

    Carrick is just an upgraded Denilson, Adam only shown because he's a piece of coal on a big steamy pile of shit.

    But Adam has the best set pieces in the league.

    Still don't know why Liverpool are selling Raul and getting Charlie to replace him, stupid move in my honest opinion.

    Chris Brunt is so underrated, he's one of the best set piece takers in the league and he's WBA's player of the season in my opinion.
