Carrick: Ronaldo Unbelievable

Michael Carrick has hailed the Manchester United side's forward prowess as the key reason for their success this season!

After the Newcastle match, which saw Ronny grab another TWO goals and set up another for Rooney, Carrick could only describe Ronny as a 'Phenomenon'!

"We're finishing strongly at the moment," he said. "We have so much pace and when we attack with speed, we can cause any team problems.

"Everyone contributes but the front four or five provide that pace and Ronaldo's phenomenal, he just puts away his chances with ease.

"There are bound to be ups and downs before the end of the season but it's very satisfying when it all comes together like this because that's the standard we set ourselves."

"With Arsenal drawing (2-2 with Birmingham), we knew before kick-off it would be a big three points for us. In the end it was a good day for us, closing the gap on them and doing our goal difference the power of good.

"We were happy at half-time but didn't really play great in the second-half, maybe we were a bit comfortable. Then as soon as they scored, we put the game to bed."
