Carrick: We'll be weary of wounded Gunners in Sunday's Old Trafford showdown

Michael Carrick believes Arsenal will be desperate to prove on Sunday they are not a spent force.

The Premier League is the sole piece of silverware the Gunners have left to aim for following their Champions League exit to Liverpool on Tuesday.


Manchester United midfielder Carrick said: "They will be right up for it and we face a real challenge.


"There is a lot at stake for both of us. We are aware that it will still be as tough as it would ever have been against them.


"But this is what you want to be involved in and the game on Sunday is massive."


Carrick added: "I am enjoying my football here and who wouldn't.


"We are involved in two competitions and in with a fighting chance in both of them.


"We have given ourselves a great chance in the league and done what we wanted to do in Europe."
