Michael Carrick has been addressing the media in the embargoed section of the pre-match press conference ahead of tomorrow’s Premier League match with Everton at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.

Champions League

The first question was “There’s 12 games left, no distractions at all. Is there a great chance now for this group of players to go on and get Champions League football next season?”

Carrick answered:
“Yeah, it’s good that everyone’s asking that question. It shows that we’ve put ourselves in a good position to start with.”

“I think I’ve gone back to what I’ve just said before really about not getting too carried away now all of a sudden after a few weeks. I think we know where we’re at, we’re in a good position. I’d still like to be in a better position, mind you, but we’re in a good position and we’re positive. I think we should be, you know, I think there’s a lot of good things to take and look forward to really. But then again it’s up to us and putting it into play really. And yes, it’s possible, it’s up to us to take the opportunity.”
