Carrick is massively underrated and underappreciated. If he was 10 years younger and playing at a club on a level that Spurs were 10 years ago he'd be exactly the sort of player who if his name was mentioned as being linked to us in the transfer threads would receive comments about him along the lines of:
"Do not want"
and
"Not United quality"
I'd say most of my United supporting pals were underwhelmed by the signing because it was never perceived to be glamorous or that exciting, to them at least. Signing a young, English central midfielder from a then mid-table-ish side. Every single time we're linked to players of similar profile today it's 'Not United quality. Do not want', etc.
