Michael Carrick says the hunger within Manchester United's squad remains as stronger as ever after their latest title triumph.

The midfielder says the disappointments always drives them on.

"Five [titles] doesn't look so good next to Giggsy but obviously I'm proud of it," he smiled with the Daily Mail. "You never forget the disappointments, no.

"In some ways that is what drives you on. Last season we lost it to City and all we could do was try and win the next one. I am proud of the lads for the way that we responded because I don't think too many teams could have."
