MICHAEL CARRICK claims he will play it his way at Manchester United and is not fazed at taking the number 16 shirt famously worn by Roy Keane.

With a maximum price of £18.6 million on his head, the pressure is on the former Tottenham midfielder to deliver from the off.

Carrick, 25, insists he can carry the burden of such a huge transfer fee — the fifth-highest in United’s illustrious history.
