Michael Carrick reaction \u2014 What did Manchester United manager say after win at Everton?<\/p>\n
Good performance? \u201cCertainly was. We had to do a lot of work tonight. Credit to Everton they made it difficult. But I thought the spirit, the way we defended as a team, was top class. In the end the clean sheet was great. Listen we can play better than that, a lot better in some aspects.\u201d<\/p>\n
How about Sesko\u2019s goal? \u201cGreat finish. It was a ruthless finish. He put it away with real confidence. Great play from Matheus and Bryan to set it up. We\u2019ve got the players to do that on the break. Delighted for Ben, coming on to help us again.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cunha made a great pass to set it up: \u201cFantastic from deep. He had to do a bit of defending especially in the second half. It was some pass over the top and the next couple of bits from Bryan and Ben finished it off. We needed a whole team performance because of the pressure Everton put us under.\u201d<\/p>\n
How important was Senne Lammens in goal? \u201cHe made a couple of really good saves. He looked really calm and composed in a tough environment. A lot of corners coming in under his bar and a lot of bodies. Good clean catches and he was immense for us tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n
This interim spell couldn\u2019t have gone much better so far, could it? \u201cI\u2019m delighted with the result and the spirit, and the boys digging deep and sacrificing for each other. It gives me a lot of encouragement going forward. But there\u2019s still so much to come from us in a positive way.\u201d<\/p>\n
Sesko set to start? \u201cListen, Ben\u2019s in a good place at the moment. We\u2019ve had some really good talks about it. Patience is one thing and building him and growing, developing him as a player. He\u2019s a patient and he understands he\u2019s going to be a big player for us for a while now. We\u2019ve got some good forwards players. The balance has been good and we need to continue that.\u201d<\/p>\n
Benjamin Sesko reaction \u2014 \u2018It\u2019s up to me to deliver\u2019<\/p>\n
Another second-half winner for you: \u201cIt was really important for us to win this game. It was really difficult. We were fighting. They were fighting. It was a 50\/50 battle but we secured the win.\u201d<\/p>\n
Are you making a case to start games? \u201cIt\u2019s just important that when I come inside I use the time to help the team whether five minutes or 90 minutes. It\u2019s just about showing I can deliver.\u201d<\/p>\n
Did you feel confident you\u2019d come into the game and score? \u201cI believe in me and the players help as well. They know what they\u2019re going to get when I arrive in the game and it\u2019s up to me to deliver.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Manchester United\u2019s goal was pretty but the win was not, and manager Michael Carrick will know his men…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":495958,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[440],"tags":[49,48,561,82],"class_list":["post-495957","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-soccer","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-soccer","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/495957","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=495957"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/495957\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/495958"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=495957"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=495957"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=495957"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
