Carrick will settle for narrow Man Utd win over Chelsea

Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick would settle for a 1-0 victory when they face Chelsea in their FA Cup quarter-final replay. The two sides played out a 2-2 draw at Old Trafford on Sunday, with the visitors battling back from being two-down after 11 minutes to take the tie to a second game.

"There have been quite a few goals in the games between us recently, I am not quite sure why," he said.

"It is exciting to watch. It is not so exciting to play in. I would take 1-0 all day."
