Michael Carrick reveals which Manchester United star has a ‘terrible’ taste in music and what the atmosphere is like in the dressing room
Experienced midfielder discussed the range of different personalities within the dressing room at Old Trafford
MICHAEL CARRICK did not hold back when giving his opinion on the music played in Manchester United’s dressing room these days.
The experienced midfielder joined the Red Devils in 2006 and in his eyes the tunes have gone down hill since he has been at the club.
Carrick welcomes diversity in the dressing room after Jose Mourinho brought in four fresh faces in the summer since being appointed as Louis van Gaal’s replacement.

But despite these new arrivals, it is David de Gea who listens to the worst music in Carrick’s eyes.
The 35-year-old told United Review: “It’s great but I’m not very happy with the music these days.
“David’s [De Gea] musical taste is terrible!
“You’ve got different individuals and personalities and I think that’s something you need in a dressing room.
“You need the right mix and we’ve certainly got that, and with that there is a good spirit and a good togetherness with everyone helping each other and driving each other on.”
Carrick is set to be handed a new one-year deal with Mourinho saying he has “always loved him”.
After making 43 appearances last season under Van Gaal, fans feared he would struggle to keep his place under the Special One but so far he has already made seven appearances this term.
The midfielder played the full 90 minutes against Arsenal and despite a dominant performance from United, Olivier Giroud’s late goal snatched a draw for the Gunners.
Carrick will hope to maintain his run in the first team as United’s next test is up against Feyenoord at Old Trafford in the Europa League.
