Injury likely to sideline Carrick
Manchester United's new £18.6m signing Michael Carrick is set to miss the start of the Premiership season after injuring his left foot against Ajax.
The midfielder lasted just 14 minutes on his second appearance before getting injured in a tackle from behind.
"It looks like he'll be out for a few weeks - there's a lot of swelling," said manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
Ryan Giggs' free-kick gave United a 1-0 win and meant they were the winners of the four-team LG Amsterdam tournament.
Carrick's debut against Porto on Friday was marred by sendings off for Wayne Rooney and Paul Scholes, who could now collect bans from the FA.
Manchester United's first league game is against Fulham on 20 August and Ferguson already has several injury worries with Gary Neville, Gabriel Heinze and Nemanja Vidic all currently sidelined.
Rio Ferdinand and John O'Shea both picked up injuries against Porto alththough both should be fit for the start of the season.
Ferguson added: "Your hope for the start of every season is a clean bill of health.
"The last two years have been horrendous for us in terms of injuries. I was hoping we would get a free run this year but it hasn't happened.
"But we have a big squad and we have to get on with it. We have great experience and hopefully that will give us a good chance."

I was watching the game and couldnt believe it, so far from this tournoment we had 3 players get injured Carrick, Ferdinand and O Shea. Plus two players sent off Rooney and scholes.

Apparently even though the match that Scholes and Rooney got sent off in was a friendly they may get suspended.

I'm sure that is usually what happens. I'm sure it has happened before.
