CARRICK EMBRACES FIXTURE LIST

Michael Carrick says fixture congestion will inspire and not hinder United as Sir Alex Ferguson's side chase a Premier League and European Cup double.

After a dominant 2-0 win over Schalke in the Champions League semi-final first leg, the Reds are back in action with a run of three blockbuster clashes in just seven days against Arsenal, the Germans and Chelsea.

Carrick feels United are up to the challenge: "We thrive on it. We want to be playing in the big games and they're coming thick and fast now. But, at the end of the day, if you want to be successful then it's the name of the game - that is what we are here for. Every game is such a big one now so it's pretty easy to switch our focus and keep motivated. We just need to recover quickly and prepare for the next game which we are all looking forward to."

The Reds have performed well at the Emirates since the Gunners moved there in 2006, not least in the last two visits - in the league and Champions League - which both yielded 3-1 victories. Carrick is hoping to continue that run.

"We are in a good position in the league, we have got the points in hand and we will go there to play like we would play regardless of what is at stake. We have done alright in the last year or two so hopefully we can carry that on. You can't draw on them too much because it is a different game but we have confidence that we have been down there before and won. Hopefully we can take that into the game and win again."

ARSENAL v UNITED - THE KEY BATTLES

Former United midfielder Mickey Thomas takes a look at three duels that could go a long way in deciding Sunday's clash.

Arsenal versus United is always an exciting fixture in the calendar, particularly when the result could determine the title race. But the pressure is on the Gunners to win this game otherwise they are out of the hunt. Arsene Wenger's side have been disappointing of late so they'll be really fired up and desperate to win. The Emirates is a great place to play football though and we have a good record there, so hopefully we can get another positive result.

Van Persie v Vidic
Arsenal's Dutch striker is in fantastic form and has scored lots of goals in the league - their season might have been different had he not been injured for so long. He'll be facing the best centre-half in the country on Sunday though. Vidic, in my opinion, is the complete defender and if this is a physical contest, there will only be one winner.

Fabregas v Carrick
The Arsenal captain has not performed to his usual high standards this season but remains a quality player who cannot be taken lightly. Michael Carrick has been excellent in recent weeks so this battle is very intriguing. Big games are usually won and lost in midfield so this head-to-head will go a long way to deciding the game.

Koscielny v Rooney
Wayne has a good record at the Emirates Stadium, where he scored one of the finest counter-attacking goals I've ever seen last season. I'm extremely confident he has the better of Koscielny and the rest of the Arsenal defence, which has looked a bit disorganised this season - particularly from set-pieces.

BLOG: CREDIT AT CRUNCH TIME

ManUtd.com's Adam Marshall hopes some of the media will be ready to eat humble pie .

It's easy to grow a little frustrated with the lack of wider appreciation for United's season thus far.

Credit must surely be applied soon for a team written off as a shadow of Sir Alex Ferguson's illustrious sides of the past. Two huge tests await on the domestic front which will go a long way to deciding if a record 19th title is safely secured ahead of what everybody hopes will be a Champions League final to savour at Wembley, providing Schalke are unable to pull off an amazing comeback at Old Trafford.

So when do the plaudits start arriving for a defence that hasn't conceded away from home in Europe all season? Or a strikeforce containing the rejuvenated Wayne Rooney and the revelation that is Javier Hernandez? And what about the midfield? The area that would cost United dearly this term, according to most pundits supposedly in the know, and yet it continues to dominate much-vaunted opponents.

United controlled the match against Schalke with a disciplined, high-tempo team performance that proved far too much for the Bundesliga side to handle. Any praise for Sir Alex's charges was tempered by criticism of the home team for not being up to scratch. I'm sure at one point I heard Liverpool legend Graeme Souness make this astonishing statement on Sky Sports: "Schalke didn't want to win."

Yet Schalke went into the tie with a 100 percent home record in the Champions League, had beaten Inter Milan convincingly home and away and, of course, gone further in the competition than England's other three representatives.

Never mind, they were written off as unworthy opponents because of United's dominance - as though reaching finals at this rarefied level is sometimes guaranteed. If Barcelona had destroyed Schalke in similar fashion, the tributes would have flowed for their version of the beautiful game.

United? We're apparently scraping through by sheer will alone, topping the league only because everybody else is so poor. Surely that doesn't explain why teams in Europe can't beat us either? The Reds' stars obviously, and quite rightly, play down their achievements, talking only of finishing the job at home and not looking further ahead than the next fixture.

But if the leaders can produce similar performances in the three big games to come in the next week then the time will come for many observers to eat humble pie and acclaim the manager's latest team. It won't be Sir Alex's greatest achievement as some suggest nor validification of any perceived lack of quality elsewhere. It will be the realisation that this squad has been good enough all along and many were wrong to doubt it.

Red View: Valencia's aim, Fletcher on way back, Lou Macari and more

Friday, April 22, 2011

VALENCIA PREFERS ASSISTS TO GOALS

Antonio Valencia has revealed his dream is to score a key goal in an important game for United but admits he is happier supplying the bullets for his team-mates.

The quiet Ecuadorian has made a remarkable return from the broken ankle sustained against Rangers last September and feels almost back to 100 percent fitness.

Having set up plenty of goals last term, he derives just as much pleasure from assists as hitting the back of the net himself - as he did in the recent win against Fulham.

"I'd love to score an important goal for United, in a final or another game that really matters," he told United Review. "I suppose I'd like to score a few more in general, but I actually prefer laying goals on for my team-mates. That's my main job and I enjoy it."

Everton are Saturday's visitors to Old Trafford and Valencia still has painful memories of the Toffees' late comeback on Merseyside earlier in the campaign.

"We're wary of Everton because they are finishing the season strongly and we remember what happened at Goodison Park earlier in the season, when they scored two late goals," he admitted. "We won't be taking them lightly, but it's a game we need to win and, in order to do that, we must continue to do the things we've been doing well in recent weeks."

FLETCHER NEARS RETURN

Sir Alex Ferguson is on the verge of welcoming back one of his "big game" players as he prepares to face an Everton side missing key men of their own.

Midfield powerhouse Darren Fletcher has missed the recent action due to a virus but he could return in 10 days' time as a gripping season enters its final, crucial phase.

"Darren Fletcher's back training now. He's had a good week. He may be available in 10 days' time," said Sir Alex.

"He'll be a very, very important player to come back. Darren's excelled in big games and important games over the years because he's got the knowledge and the discipline to carry out whatever job you want him to do. That's the value he brings to the team. When he does come back, he'll go straight into the team."

Although the Scotland captain is out of Saturday's game, the manager is aware that the Merseysiders have been coping well with several absentees of their own of late.

"Everton have done exceptionally well, considering that David Moyes has had a mountain of injuries in the last few weeks," said Sir Alex.

"He's been without Fellaini, Arteta, Cahill and Saha but they've still been turning out results.

"Games against Everton are never going to be easy because it's a local derby in a way. But our home record has been fantastic this season, performance levels have been fantastic, and hopefully that will continue tomorrow."

TREBLE WAS ALWAYS TOO MUCH

Former Reds favourite Lou Macari acknowledges how difficult it is to win trophies.

Only 10 days ago, people were talking about a Treble but I'd never seen a Treble on the cards because of what we had to do.

We had to beat City and then win the final, we've got to beat Schalke over two legs and then whoever in the final of that and win the Premier League obviously.

I knew it was achievable but I didn't think it was going to be easy and, of course, it's gone now. Winning something, anything, is great in a football season as it's not that easy.

I know the manager would love to go to Wembley and win the Champions League and that would be a massive achievement, especially as it's going to be Real Madrid or Barcelona in the final.

Either of those would bring back memories of United's last European Cup final at Wembley, that was a great evening for the club, and this would be equally as good. But I think it's the hardest competition we're left in. We're in the driving seat in the league, it's a great position and we can only throw it away. The Champions League is different - there's a lot of hard work to be done there. It's achievable but the opposition is fierce.

I thought when the draw was first made, like most people, that we'd be certain to face Inter Milan if we got past Chelsea. So Schalke are a bit of an unknown team but no-one can underestimate them with the two results they got against Inter.

I saw Raul in the team and thought, to be honest with you, he was finishing at Real a couple of years ago and playing out time. But he seems to have a new lease of life, he's looking younger as time goes on and is a bit like Ryan Giggs in that respect.

I thought Schalke were tailor-made for us and the best opponents we can get but I'm starting to wonder a little bit what lies in store for us. They're a bit of an unknown quantity in terms of what they've got to offer but, when you look at the evidence of the San Siro, five goals away from home is some achievement.

If we'd scored that many in any Champions League campaign, people would be going overboard with the performance. I think now, without knowing a great deal about them, that they look dangerous opponents.

Red View: Derby special - Vidic on stress, Park's Wembley wish, quiz + more

Friday, April 15, 2011

VIDIC WARY OF STRESSFUL RUN-IN

Nemanja Vidic has admitted that chasing glory on three fronts places a mental strain on the players as well as the obvious physical aspects.

United are simply expected to win every match they play and, although this is typically the time of the season when the Reds hit top gear, the pressure on the team to perform is obvious.

Vida concedes that it's a stressful business playing must-win games twice a week for much of the rest of the campaign but the captain is clearly relishing the prospect of lifting some silverware at the end of the season.

"For the players who play so many games - you may play 50 games a season - it can be tough, physically," Vidic revealed. "Mentally, too. We go into every game with the mentality that winning is everything - you place a lot of pressure on yourself and you have to be strong to keep that up until the end of the season.

"Every weekend you're under incredible pressure. You have to win every week, you have to perform well, you have to score goals... it's stressful.

"Obviously you need to be physically ready at this stage of the season but in order to play for a big club, the mental side is just as important. To win trophies, to win games week in, week out, you have to be very strong. A player's mental strength can have a big impact at the end of the season and that's where we hope our experience comes into play."

PARK'S WEMBLEY WISH

Big-game player Ji-sung Park is desperate to grace Wembley at the weekend and help United prolong City's 35-year wait for a trophy.

The all-Manchester affair will be the subject of the world's glare on Saturday as the Reds look to set up a final contest with Bolton or Stoke.

Park's cool finish quashed any prospect of a Chelsea comeback in the Champions League on Tuesday and he's keen to play his first match in this season's FA Cup after being away on international duty and subsequently picking up an injury.

"No, I didn't play in the FA Cup," said the South Korean star. "Hopefully, I will play in the big game.

"I haven't won the FA Cup - it's the only one title [I haven't won] since I joined Manchester United so hopefully this season I can win the FA Cup. It's got great history throughout the world and hopefully I want to enjoy that competition more."

Wembley is an historic venue for all overseas players and Park is certainly no different.

"The stadium is great," he told MUTV. "There are more fans than at Old Trafford and any other stadium in England.

"The atmosphere will be fantastic and it's always enjoyable to play in that kind of stadium. It's a big game and I'm looking forward to playing in it."

SCHOLES TARGETS MORE GOALS

Paul Scholes has admitted he should be scoring more regularly as he looks to repeat his superb strike at Fulham earlier in the season.

The powerful drive past David Stockdale was a typical moment of genius from the evergreen playmaker but it remains his only goal of the campaign so far.

"I've managed to score a couple against Fulham, including this season away from home," he told United Review. "My only goal of this season, in fact.

"I'd like to score more goals obviously. One goal in a season isn't enough really. But yes, I've had ups and downs against Fulham. I got sent off down there when we lost 2-0 but we've had some good wins down there too.

"At home, I think we've done quite well against them - I can't remember having too many problems with them at Old Trafford. I hope it can be the same again this time, although we know the quality they have in their team."

The 36-year-old is well aware that Fulham will be no push-overs on Saturday.

"Every game is difficult now," he explained. "Bolton at home proves it - that was a game we were expected to get three points from and we almost didn't. The games aren't turning out as people think they will."

GIGGS: IT'S NOT OVER YET

Ryan Giggs spoke to ManUtd.com's Nick Coppack at Stamford Bridge this week.

You must be delighted to get a rare win at Chelsea...
It's a great feeling. In the 90s, we had a reasonably good record at Chelsea but for the last nine years, we haven't been able to win a game at Stamford Bridge. It's an odd one, though, because over the last few seasons we've played really well but not got the results.

How difficult was it to hang onto the first-half lead?
We're really pleased to have won 1-0. We often have to switch things around in European games - it's a bit more tactical than your average league game. When they're bringing on players and we're getting injuries, you need to change things quickly and we did that well tonight.

There's still a lot of work to be done in the second leg...
The tie's not over yet. You could see in the second half that they put us under a lot of pressure and I'm sure we'll be under a lot of pressure again at Old Trafford. But it's our home ground, the fans will be up for it, the players will be up for it. We just need to build on what we've done here.

How impressive was Michael Carrick alongside you in midfield?
Michael's a top player. He defends well, he screens the back four well, he's got good feet, he can pass long and short. I've felt he's been outstanding over the past couple of weeks, to be honest with you.

And Rio Ferdinand's return has come at a good time...
It was a great boost to have Rio back. Chris Smalling's been outstanding since he's come into the team but obviously Rio brings something else and his partnership with Vida is amazing.
