I bet Afonso Alves has more goals and assists than Xavi, doesnt mean he was a better player.

Carrick and De Bruyne play completely different roles. I'm not saying Carrick is/was better than Dr Bruyne, but you can't just dismiss him because he didn't score or assist a lot, as that wasn't his job.

United hadn't won a title for 3 seasons between 2004 and 2006, they signed Carrick and won the next 3. He was a brilliant player and seemed like a decent bloke, unlike most that end up with them.

Completely different player. Need to compare him to Alonso and Busquets

Just collected £50 off a rag mate, happy days. He's not currently interested in a bet next year but might try and tempt him with a handicap bet, any suggestions on what start the rags should get?

19 points?

Yeah, got my usual season £40 raggy bonus.

He's said no to next seasons bet. But he will. He did the same last year. Couple of transfer rumours and he gets all giddy, doubles the bet and says they'll win the league.... He tried to pay out early this season if i agreed to half it. I declined.

6 points and you'll definitely be collecting again

If he says we beat them by 19 this season,talk everything down

We won't do the 18 game winning run again
All the big teams will strengthen
This season the rags gave in when they knew they had no chance of catching us
It was a pure one off

Carrick has been a consistently brilliant player for united, Spurs and West Ham. Agree with you about his character too. He’s always come across well.

As sure as night follows day, he, along with Phil Neville, will tip united to win the league next season.

"No way City are 19 points better than United" .... err yes they are Yorky Boy... which is why we finished 19 points above that shower of shite....

If you think about it, he’s actually right.
