Carrick told MUTV after the gameย โ€œThey had a lot of possession but thatโ€™s their game

โ€œThey play off the ball and keep it for long spells. We knew that before the game. It was just a case of staying patient really. Considering the chances they had, I think we were quite comfortable in terms of goal threats.

โ€œYou always want to score more goals, of course, but I donโ€™t think itโ€™s a concern. Itโ€™s about winning games and itโ€™s a good sign that we can win games like that. We havenโ€™t been at our best but thereโ€™ll be a point in the season when everything will come easily.

โ€œWeโ€™ll score some more goals because of the talent in our team. We believe we can do that, but at this time it is about grafting, sticking together and showing a lot of character.

โ€œWe are happy, we werenโ€™t at our best but three points is nice. The football wasnโ€™t as fluent or easy on the eye as it could have been but 1-0 is a win and weโ€™ll take that. At this stage of the season it is about picking up points and wins – judge where we are by Christmas and weโ€™ll kick on from there.โ€
