Carrick: title winning form

Man Utd midfielder Michael Carrick believes that the Reds are more than capable of winning the league this season. Carrick feels the club are coming into good form at the right time as they have overtaken Arsenal at the top of the Premiership.

"Before we played Newcastle we knew Arsenal had drawn and that if we won we would go top," he said.

"It is nice now to be sitting on top of the pile. Hopefully we can stay there, but that’s up to us. That’s the hard part. We managed to do it last season and hopefully we can do it again.

"I am sure we will if we keep playing like that. We want to get the momentum again and hopefully stay there.

"We just have to do the right things in games. As long as we try to do that we’ll win a lot of games. When it does click, teams struggle to cope with us.

"When we play to that standard we will beat anyone and cause anyone problems. Hopefully that continues."
