Well it was only £14m downpayment, and United won't pay it all unless they win the Championship & Europen Cup for the next 3 years or so.
You also have to take in to account that Chelsea gave Man Utd £12m for John Obi Mikel, a player who never played for the club, so in a way Chelsea bank rolled the Carrick deal for United. Good bit of business if you ask me.
