Michael Carrick admitted he was frustrated by his Manchester United side’s lack of cutting edge in their 1-1 draw at  West Ham (in 18th place) on Tuesday. The Red Devils were well below their best for long periods, and trailed to Tomas Soucek’s 50th minute strike. United needed Benjamin Sesko’s equaliser deep into stoppage-time to avoid the first defeat of Carrick’s five-match reign as interim boss. 

Although United retained fourth place in the English Premier League thanks to Sesko’s dramatic leveller, Carrick conceded there was a lack of cohesive play in the final third from his team.
