Someone fed a response to the press suggesting Spurs' interest in bringing back Carrick to the Lane. The Daily Mail reports that Tottenham is willing to pay 18 million pounds for him.
This is refreshing news for a few reasons that have nothing to do with Carrick actually returning to Spurs. First it demonstrates that Tottenham will respond in kind to those trying to undermine the club. Second, the story was splendidly backhanded. The article actually highlights that Carrick has lost his starting position, his playing time is on the wane, and he is actively seeking to remedy this away from Manchester United.
I don't know if we can credit Spurs management for drawing attention to Carrick's diminished role while appearing to flatter him with an offer, but if so it's certainly an improvement.
