Man Utd midfielder Carrick: No senior player begrudges youngster getting his place

Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick insists the senior players do not begrudge the youngsters' their first team places.

Nobody, he says, is panicking about losing their place.

Carrick, 30, told manutd.com: "We're well aware that there will be times during the season when the flowing football is not going to be there and you just have to find a way to win. Hopefully the experience will tell in those times.

"[At the moment] these young lads will be enjoying themselves. They've got an opportunity they possibly didn't think would come so soon.

"[When that happens] you just want to make the most of it when you get a chance. You are so young, you have never really had any setbacks. You just play the game freely and with enthusiasm and enjoy it. They are certainly doing that at the moment."
