Carrick hails Berbatov as a one-off and admits coaching career appeals

Michael Carrick says Manchester United teammate Dimitar Berbatov is a one-off.

Carrick is amazed by the ability Berbatov shows in training and in games.

He told manutd.com: "Berba's got the ability to do things that not many people can do. You've seen his goals, some of his skills... a lot of the time at training he does things that are very special.

"Other people can't replicate it. The overhead kick against Liverpool... the way he kicks the ball and plays at his own pace. He almost teases defenders into thinking they can get the ball. Not many people can do what he can do."

Also, Michael Carrick admits coaching interests him.

Carrick, however, is unsure about management.

He told manutd.com: "It's a hard one. At this stage I can't see myself being a manager. You never know. Hopefully I've still got a good few years left - after that you never know.

"I started doing some coaching badges a year or two ago but haven't got around to finishing them. I'm really interested in coaching - maybe not even at the top level, maybe Academy kids or in the youth team... It's not such a long way off, although I'm trying to tell myself it is!"
