Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick admits defeat at Newcastle United is still hanging over them ahead of tomorrow's FA Cup tie at Manchester City.

The midfielder admits the players are "hurting" after the league defeats to Blackburn and Newcastle but insists the Reds are "by no means feeling sorry for ourselves."

"We've just got to get on with it. We tend to overcome setbacks pretty well here and hopefully we can do the same," Carrick told manutd.com. "Sunday's game is a massive game - against our biggest rivals - and we're looking forward to it."
