Carrick told MUTV after the gameย โThey had a lot of possession but thatโs their game
โThey 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.
โYou always want to score more goals, of course, but I donโt think itโs a concern. Itโs about winning games and itโs a good sign that we can win games like that. We havenโt been at our best but thereโll be a point in the season when everything will come easily.
โWeโll 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.
โWe are happy, we werenโt at our best but three points is nice. The football wasnโt as fluent or easy on the eye as it could have been but 1-0 is a win and weโll take that. At this stage of the season it is about picking up points and wins – judge where we are by Christmas and weโll kick on from there.โ
