Manchester United manager Michael Carrick has hailed Shea Lacey’s impact following a breathtaking second-half comeback against Roma. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
Expressing immense pride in his young prospect, Carrick highlighted both Lacey’s creative flair and a surprisingly disciplined defensive shift to help close out the game.
The club legend added that he loves the youngster to bits because he is more than willing to take his opportunity when called upon.
His words, “Not going too over the top, but at the same time absolutely delighted for Shea.
We love him to bits. He’s a great young man, he’s desperate to do well, he’s got great ability.
So in terms of coming inside and finding the pass, that’s not surprising.
He’s got that little glint in his eye, he plays with a bit of mischief, if you like, so he’s always looking to have that.
But I was just as happy seeing him defending as a right-back when we needed that in the moments when as a rounded footballer, you’ve got to be able to do that.
So I was just as pleased seeing him do that in the defensive side, and seeing younger players take the opportunity.
I think he gave everybody a bit of a lift coming on the pitch, and it was fantastic to see, and he made the most of what he had tonight.”
