Michael Carrick says winning is more important than style for Manchester United under new boss Jose Mourinho, as the midfielder waits to find out more about his future at the club. Some have questioned whether Mourinhos perceived style of play will satisfy United fans who crave attacking and stylish football but Carrick does not think that will be a problem and believes winning is more important.The 34-year-olds contract is set to expire this summer but he is hopeful he will figure in Mourinhos plans for the future and believes, despite that reservation in some quarters, that the Portuguese is a good fit for the club.

Lampard backs Jose at Man Utd Frank Lampard has tipped Jose Mourinho to be a success at Manchester United I think his track record speaks for itself, I think it is a good fit. It is about winning at the end of the day. I know there is a lot of talk about styles - play this way, play that way, but it is about winning.You have to be No 1, you have to be winning trophies, and if you can do that with a bit of style and a bit of flair then obviously thats the perfect match but, first and foremost, it is about winning and getting back on top. Mourinho will take charge of Manchester United next season Carrick thinks his United team-mate Marcus Rashford has a great chance of making Roy Hodgsons final England squad for Euro 2016 after the young striker took just 138 seconds to score on his senior international debut in the 2-1 win over Australia.However, Carrick, who has won 34 caps for England, thinks the 18-year-old has a big future in the national side, even if he misses out on this summers tournament in France.First and foremost it has been an incredible six months for him and he has given himself every chance, Carrick said. What more could he have done to give the manager a headache or to put himself forward? Marcus Rashford scored on his England debut against Australia Hes such a nice lad, so down to earth and grounded which is great to see and I hope, for his sake, he goes and does well, and Im sure he will. Hes got all the attributes to do well.Even if it is not this one, I have said to him hes got such a big future ahead of him, such a long career that almost anything he gets now is a bonus for him, its not what he expected, so well see how it goes.

FFA chairman Steven Lowy has warned Australian football must be treated as fragile, branding its success so delicate it could come crashing down at any moment.There is good reason for the games top brass to feel optimistic two days out from the start of the 12th A-League season.Tim Cahill leads a cohort of Socceroos enticed home and Saturdays Sydney derby at ANZ Stadium will likely break the national crowd-attendance record for a club match.While acknowledging the leaps and bounds already made, Lowy said he was taking nothing for granted.We should all look at the game as being fragile ... if you think like that, it makes you incredibly focused, Lowy told a crowd of 600 at Sydney FCs season launch.I think with all the success thats been achieved, you should think about it as being fragile, because it could go off the precipice quickly.Lowy said balancing short- and long-term goals was crucial, as the game vied for commercial sustainability and an increase in fans.The 53-year-old, who took the reins late last year from father Frank Lowy, referenced A-League expansion as a key target and agreed with Socceroos coach Ange Postecoglous demand for up to six new teams.But in line with chief executive David Gallops comments a day earlier, he declined to provide a specific time frame, instead championing a discciplined approach despite increasing impatience from the marketplace.ddddddddddddThe FFA board is bringing a long-term focus to a strategy and execution and financing plan, one that is sustainable, Lowy said.But at the same time, youve got to be entrepreneurial and push the limits (in the) early days as well.One of those things we are focused on is growing the league. We need more than 10 teams.Anges book came out and hes calling for 15 or 16 teams. I think hes right.But its a matter of time to get there in a way that we dont have some of the stumblings of the past, that we build sustainable plans going forward.Those teams are going to butt up against existing teams and existing clubs wont like that.But we have to look past that, not be influenced by the politics of that, but by the ultimate growth of the game itself.Lowy played down reports that recent meetings with FIFA and AFC representatives were held to address concerns over FFAs governance.He said it was healthy to open yourself up to be looked at, adding that the governing body was still working through details of how it would satisfy its agreement to include a broader representation of stakeholders in its congress.
