Manchester United coach Michael Carrick says their training camp in Marbella has been a success.

Carrick says United's coaches have been able to give a lot more 'detail and information' to players during their winter break in Marbella.

"It is a great chance for the lads to have a few days away and mentally switch off," Carrick told the United app.

"Which I think they needed and it is going to help them going forward and then to come now and get back down to business and get a good week's work in.

"It is something that you can't spend much time standing around in back at the training ground because of the weather, so it is a different type of training we can do here.

"We can get a lot more information and detail across and enjoy the sunshine. It just creates a better environment for the training sessions. It's a good weeks work for us, and the facilities are fantastic. We are happy to be here."
