Carrick: we're a great team

Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick believes that the club are improving continuously and are proving they are great as they continue to march to the Premiership title.

"Winning the league again really proves what a good team you are," Carrick told the Daily Mirror.

"To win it on a one-off is a great achievement in itself, but if you can go two or maybe three years on the bounce then you are talking great teams.

"To win the Champions League is a dream and we're giving everything we can to do that, but to win the league twice is what great teams are made of.

"For winning the Champions League you go down in history and people remember you that little bit more, but for me the league is still very strong."
