🗣 Michael Carrick on squad rotation: "It's a balanced view, that's why we've got the squad. We need to adapt to certain strengths and different ways of playing. We play Thursday, Wednesday, it's about managing the group and trusting them, and anyone who can play will play." [MUTV]

🚨 Michael Carrick on De Ligt: "We're still managing him, he's trained well, and he's pushing and pushing, but we've got to manage that last stage. He's in a good place, and it's great to have him back. Hopefully, he will return soon." [MUTV]

Carrick on Luke Shaw: "We gave him an extra recovery day today. We'll see by tomorrow how he is. It's not an ongoing thing or plan, just a thing off the back off the game the other day."

Michael Carrick on the UCL: "It's great to be here. We're trying to make the campaign as long as we can make it, some big challenges ahead and looking forward to it."

Michael Carrick on what it means for the club: "It means an awful lot. This football club has been used to challenging with the best and being the best and it's not something we take for granted. "We've missed out on it for a number of years so it means a lot, it's where we expect to be. We've made huge steps over the past few months to make it in to be in this position." "Now it's about what's next, the next phase, this is certainly where we want to be."

🗣 Mbeumo on the UCL: "It's the first time I've watched the draw. I'm excited for the games, every team is different, so it's good to go there and see."

🗣 Michael Carrick on Sabah: "They're a very well-coached team, they've won a lot of matches and they're playing with confidence. They press well as a team so we're aware of what we're up against." [MUTV]

🗣 What's Mbeumo's best position: Michael Carrick: "He prefers playing on the left!" Bryan Mbeumo: "I'm used to a few positions. Back at Troyes I played right and drifted central. I don't really mind where I play as long as I can play and perform." [MUTV] 🗣 Michael Carrick on the importance of the UCL: "It's a magical competition, it's where we want to be. We want to make the most of it, we've seen special nights over the years, and it's where we want to be." "It's the best competition to challenge yourself against the best. We're delighted to be here, but we're not here just to enjoy the occasion. We're here to do business." 🗣 Michael Carrick on the quick turnaround: "I'm not concerned. It's not ideal, but it's not something we can do much about. We've got to deal with the cards we were dealt." 🗣 Michael Carrick on recent UCL history: "We have to be humble enough to understand what recent history we've had. It doesn't take away the desire and expectation to be successful, but we need to be realistic. It's a really balanced view. It's what ahead of us that matters, whether that's coming into this in good shape or not." "We've got a team that's really ready for this phase, we need to learn and keep improving."
