Carrick hails Welbeck

Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick heaped praise on his team-mate Danny Welbeck following their 5-0 victory over Stoke on Saturday.

“He’s so talented,” Carrick told MUTV. “We see it every day in training. It’s nice for him to produce it on the big stage. His temperament is spot on, though, so he won’t get carried away. He’s got a good chance of achieving big things here.”

The 17-year-old scored an impressive goal in his first Premier League game.

“What a goal,” said Carrick. “To come on and score a goal like that must be beyond his wildest dreams. I’m sure he’ll build on that.

“He’s got bags of ability and good temperament, so he suits playing for us. I’m not sure about the celebration, but he can work on that!”
