Man United boss Michael Carrick is not taking Tottenham Hotspur lightly even though they are sitting at the bottom of the Premier League table.Spurs and United are both in a mini-crisis, having started their campaigns poorly, with Roberto De Zerbi’s men yet to win a single game this season.However, the Lilywhites could go level on points with United if they manage to win at Old Trafford, a stadium where they have had some good results over results.

Saturday 10th October Premier League Manchester UnitedManchester United17:30TottenhamTottenhamHowever, Carrick is not expecting an easy game against the North Londoners, suggesting that their points tally does not reflect the quality they have shown at times this season.When asked about his side’s next opponents, the United boss said (via Manchester Evening News): “Points-wise, they have played a lot better than that at times. When you look at the games, they are a very good team with good players. They have assembled a squad this summer that is different to what they had. They haven’t had the results they maybe deserve.”Roberto De Zerbi says Spurs v Utd is still a box office fixtureThe fact that the Red Devils and the Lilywhites are sitting at the wrong end of the table means that there is not as much hype about this fixture as there has been in previous years.However, De Zerbi insisted that the poor starts of the two sides do not diminish the size of the clash, admitting that he and his players need to prove that they belong at a club of Tottenham’s stature.When asked if this game is still as big as it once was, the Italian said: “Yes, because we are Tottenham, and United-Tottenham are still big clubs in the Premier League. We have to deserve to work in this club, playing better and making different results.”READ MORE: De Zerbi provides Tottenham injury update on Van Hecke, Maddison, and KulusevskiThe post ‘They maybe deserve’ – Michael Carrick issues warning to Man United for Tottenham clash appeared first on Spurs Web.
