Contents 1 Transfer to Manchester United 2 Michael's brother 3 "Strong in Every Department" 4 Number of caps 5 Goals for Manchester United

[edit] Transfer to Manchester United

His transfer to Manchester United has not yet been agreed or anything yet. He is still regarded by the law to be a Spurs player as his professional contract still lays with this club.

So why does the article say that he is now a Manchester United player. Niall123 20:30, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Michael's brother

Can anyone tell me what happened to Michael's younger brother, who also used to play for West Ham United? His name is Graeme Carrick and I think he was born in 1985. --212.200.196.227 17:20, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Strong in Every Department"

I've removed this quote. It wasn't cited and wasn't very true. The general concencus is that Michael Carrick isn't very good at tackling and lacks pace. [1] Niall123 12:55, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Number of caps

To the member 80.*, he has more than 1 cap, definitely. SoccerNet says so. x42bn6 Talk 17:29, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Goals for Manchester United

Carrick has definitely scored more than 3 goals for united. 2 against roma, 1 againsy sheff utd, 1 against villa, i against reading, and maybe more, i cant remember off the top of my head 86.14.246.217 19:45, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

The total in the infobox is for league games only, which is why his goal tally is only 3. Dave101→talk  20:13, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
