But what has Michael Carrick ever done for us...?

[hewielewie]

?

 

[h_m_boro]

Well, he converted Chuba into a No 10. There's that I suppose

 

[Frozen Horse]

Brought peace?

 

[Jedi boro]

We can score goals again

Which is nice

 

[Rofesleg]

Got us into the playoffs. Which makes a change.

 

[Steer]

He's got a nice coat.

 

[Sheriff_John_Bunnell_ret]

He invented the triangle. No wait that was Pythagoras.

 

[S7DiscoDown]

Made everything better

That said he's not solved how woeful we are from corners / setplays. Then again 'experts' like Pulis and Warnock failed. I've just given up on them

 

[HarryVegas]

Made me more happy with my club than at any time since our European adventures. The real deal and the players love him.

 

[SmogonOuseburn]

Apart from giving us an exciting team, playing attacking football, top scorers in the league, in the playoffs with 3 games to spare from being in the relegation zone when he came, probably not a lot really!

 

[afcb_acklam]

my partner goes all gooey eyed when he's on the telly, even tho he looks like a young north sea trawler man, and she's old enough to be his mother

 

[parmoboy]

I'm warming to him.

 

[WindyNook]

Ultimate pleasure, but not as many laughs as this

 

[coluka]

He has made beards look fashionable again, and constructed a straight road to the play offs

 

[EuropaParmo]

He's the Messiah, and I should know, I've followed a few

 

[Frozen Horse]

We can score goals again

Which is nice

Not sure what you mean by "again". I can't ever recall us being close to being so free scoring.

I've seen us promoted 5 times, and 4 of those times we were primarily defensive teams. Only Robbo's during second promotion would I think we were quite high scoring.

Under MC, our goalscoring tops even that of Fulham last season.

 

[Beverleyred]

He is a very nice man, and should be honoured for his services to football and charity, both on and off the field. (Of which I have no doubt, that one day that will happen).

 

[Rofesleg]

He's the Messiah, and I should know, I've followed a few

He's not you know. He's just a very naughty boy.

 

[Alwaysaborolad]

"Im Michael"... "No Im Michael"...
We have a few injuries.... Cue the music....

Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse
When you're chewing on life's gristle
Don't grumble, give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best
And
Always look on the bright side of life
Always look on the light side of life

 

[r00fie1]

He`s proven that Wallsend Boys Club has produced at least one decent footballer
