Michael Carrick demands Man United use derby ‘injustice’ as fuel for Carabao Cup clash with Brighton

Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick hopes the frustration following their recent loss in a Premier League derby will fuel their Carabao Cup clash against Brighton. The atmosphere at Old Trafford has been dampened by their sluggish start in the league, with only four points from four matches. United's 1-0 home defeat to Manchester City on Sunday, exacerbated by an offside error, left Carrick feeling the team needs to shift focus from past mistakes to securing victories.

He emphasized the importance of winning games and achieving positive results, stating that the team's history of winning is an advantage they can leverage. Brighton, coming off a 5-0 win at Coventry, presents a tough challenge for United, but Carrick believes the team has the edge and edge to bounce back. He highlighted the importance of trophies and the feeling of winning, stressing that football is about achieving success and giving supporters a sense of emotion.

Carrick also hinted that Luke Shaw may be available for the match, while Carlos Bacca will miss the game due to an ankle injury.
