Michael Carrick considers his Manchester United colleague and Old Trafford legend Paul Scholes to be a football 'genius'.
Landmark
Carrick will reach a notable landmark of his own on Saturday if he figures in United's trip to Norwich, with the former West Ham and Tottenham midfielder poised to take in his 400th career outing.
The 31-year-old added: "It is the first I have heard of that. I suppose I have been playing for a number of years and the games do add up, but it is not something I look for.
"For me, it is more about trophies, what people win and what they can achieve.
"Maybe at the end of my career I can look back and see what I have done. But at the moment, it is just about winning trophies for me."
