Even when Lacey isn’t getting the chances that his form deserves right now, nothing bad has been heard about him from inside Carrington.

He has always been a model professional, wanting to be his best version, and he carries Man Utd in his heart despite the club being in turmoil.

However, that does not mean that he lacks confidence and self-belief, which is exactly what Andy Mitten has been hearing about Lacey of late.

Speaking on The Talk of the Devils podcast, Mitten said: “I think he’s a confident young lad. I keep hearing something about him, which is ‘He’s having himself’, which is in a good way.

“I hear good things about him, and I like him. I like the way he carries himself.”

This won’t surprise Man Utd fans who have been enamoured with the talent and mentality of Lacey, champing at the bit for Carrick to give him a chance.

By all accounts, the game against Villa is a huge chance for Carrick to show that he deserves to stay as the Man Utd manager on the other side of this international break.

Rewarding Lacey for his great cameos with a starting berth against Villa will send a message of meritocracy, while also embracing the spirit and motto of this club.

If he starts, then one thing is for certain, which is that he won’t be lacking any confidence to make a mark.
