‚The whistle blows and I set off for the one kick I know will stay with me for the rest of my life, maybe even define my life…‘
Michael Carrick was the heartbeat of Manchester United. For more than a decade he was the player that made them tick. Loved by his managers, lauded by his fellow professionals, worshipped by the Old Trafford faithful, yet regularly misunderstood by the wider public, Carrick was a player like no other.
Intelligent, calm, thoughtful – in many ways the opposite of the archetypal English midfielder – Carrick has always been his own man and is typically forthright. In his book he reveals what it’s really like to win relentlessly under legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson, shows us the hidden secrets of the famous Carrington training ground, invites us to experience the camaraderie and clashes inside the United dressing room, and lets us feels what it’s like to walk out on the Old Trafford pitch alongside some of the biggest names in the game – from Ronaldo to Scholes to Giggs, Rooney and the rest.
A deeply personal book,
Between the Lines reveals for the first time Michael’s battles with mental health, his struggles with the national side, as well as the redemption he has found with his family and his team.
From growing up in the north-east to winning the Champions League and five Premier League titles with Manchester United, via West Ham and Tottenham, Carrick’s story reveals him to be his own man: fearless, thoughtful, intelligent and honest.
*All of Michael Carrick’s proceeds from the sale of the book will be donated to the Michael Carrick Foundation, dedicated to providing financial support to community services that will give underprivileged children living in the North and North East better opportunities so that they feel safe, valued and inspired.*
