I'd agree with the thread starter. I've always been in favour of not breaking up what was a premiership winnning central midfield partnership.
And while we were outplayed to an extent in the Milan game, I believe a fit defence would have made up to a large extent for Carrick's defensive deficiencies. What we lose from giving up Carrick's superior passing is not balanced by what we gain from Hargreaves' ball-winning.
Ofcourse, he does offer us the extra option but was it worth what we paid for it? At this point, i'd have to say no. I'm not too worried though. If it does come down to selling him, I don't think we'd make a huge loss. 10 to 12 million is guaranteed.
