Michael Carrick says Manchester United are desperate for FA Cup glory as they reached the semi-finals of the competition with a 2-1 replay success at West Ham.

Carrick has yet to win the FA Cup during his career, with the Red Devils lifting the last of their 11 cups back in 2004.

"I'm desperate to go further in this competition," he told MUTV.

"We haven't done well enough in this competition over recent years and we're well aware of that. We're desperate to go all the way this time.

"It's been a season of setbacks and then good results, it's so frustrating but we keep trying to get that consistency. We have a couple of good games and then a bad one sets us back.

"This is an opportunity for us now, it's a one-off game. We'll go down there and look forward to it but getting to Wembley is not the end. It's a semi-final so we haven't achieved anything yet."
