Softening what stance on Carrick. My stance on Carrick has never changed. I've always rated him

To sum up:

A new signing, in first season at a new club, in a new league, attracts initial critcism before improving as the season goes on, once he gets over a series of niggling injuries and has a decent run in the side.

Who'd have thunk it, eh?

Here's another blindingly obvious factoid. He's gonna be even better next season. Which pleases me.
