Carrick seeking one final flurry

With the mood in their camp at the highest it has been in recent memory, Sunday’s guests have already wrapped up both a third-place finish and a sensational Champions League return with time to spare.
Rightfully receiving a string of plaudits from across England’s elite, United have lost just a pair of their 16 Premier League showdowns since Carrick’s arrival and they will be seeking one final statement here.
However, watching their FA Cup adventure come to an abrupt end back on January 11th as they slumped to a 2-1 loss at home against Brighton, Carrick’s side should be bracing themselves for a tricky test this weekend.
