Carrick seems to have gone missing a few times this season, not defending well and doesn't offer much going forward.

In the summer we still need 2 midfielders a CB, Left winger and a left back.

At long last someone agrees with me on Carrick. I think he is the weak link in the team and the root of all our problems.He sits too close to the defense and draws teams onto us. More importantly he can't tackle and is poor in the air. I think Jones should play his position

There is a good reason for that.He is not as good as many people think he is.

It was really apparent today how deep he was dropping for the ball, there was loads of space for Evans and Rio to carry it, yet there was Carrick taking it off them from a yard away. This meant our midfield had no way of finding space as we had 5 at the back when we had the ball and Hernandez isolated. I agree it limits our ability to break teams down having Carrick dropping so deep against average opposition.

Evans and Rio are our two best ball playing CB's as well. Makes no sense.
