Carrick backs Man Utd fans ahead of anti-Glazer protest

Roy Keane Michael Carrick GFX

Pig-headed Keane is just jealous of Carrick

Michael Carrick used to look up to Roy Keane. When he was a youth teamer at West Ham, Carrick would analyse the way the Manchester United captain walked out of the dressing room at Upton Park.
