"I'm not surprised one bit [by Eriksen's form]. I played against him a lot. I watched him a lot. I like him a lot," Carrick told club media after the Anfield leg of the Legends of the North charity match against Liverpool on Saturday. "He's a fantastic footballer. He's clever, he's smart."

Carrick added: "It almost doesn't matter what position he plays. He can adapt. He's just a clever, intelligent footballer with great quality. I was pleased when we signed him, and he's not surprised me one bit. He's a top player."
