I can't stand Liverpool. I can't stand the people. I can't stand anything to do with them.

There are only four trophies available to win at the start of every season and there will be some big teams this year who won't win one at all.

I love the introduction of international managers and players into the Premier League. However Manchester United's principles through their history had always been: they will appoint a British manager, there will always promote youth, they will always play a certain style of football, they will always look to entertain. So to me the idea of appointing a British manager, David Moyes, appointing somebody who deserved that opportunity to step up, was the right principle.

And I know what confidence medals can bring.

I'd say Carrick has the qualities of a Scholes, Andrea Pirlo and Sergio Busquets.

Playing for England was one long roller-coaster: some ups and downs, but also quite a few moments when you're not really sure if you're enjoying the ride.

Nothing improves your confidence and brings a team together more than winning a cup.
