Michael Carrick Misses His Train, Gets Ruthlessly Trolled on Twitter

Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick's difficult season didn't get any easier on Wednesday after he took to Twitter to reveal he'd narrowly missed his train.

"

When you rush to a platform to see the train pulling out the station and a few people sniggering 😡😡 It's ok only an hour till the next one 🙈

The former West Ham United and Tottenham Hotspur star has struggled to hold down a regular place in an underwhelming Old Trafford side of late, and his mood won't have been improved by the internet's predictable reaction to his misfortune: 

"

@carras16 That's that famous Carrick pace right there...

@carras16 surprised with Van Gaals training this season you made it to the station at all. Just ping a ball on the break you will be fine

@carras16 Louis Van Gaal must have planned your trip to the station , lots of sideways turns yea?

@carras16 You’ve never been the quickest to be fair fella :-)

Carrick clearly didn't appreciate the feedback:

"

Regarding my last tweet there's been far too many comments about my pace. Some very harsh I must say.

Welcome to the real world, Michael.
