What would you have done or preferred?
Michael Carrick - Head Coach for the remainder of the season
- Thread starter Bastian
- Start date
Yes, thank you.
Best of luck to him. Hope the players don't down tools on him like what happened with Ragnick.
If for whatever reason, Carrick does a madness and we go say, 12-3-2 in the last 17 games, will there be calls for him to be kept in the role?!

The club need to go out and sign Ruben Neves if it is an option. I doubt it is though as he’s putting in man of the match performances for Al Hilal.
Pogba had the talent when he could be bothered. Too inconsistant for me.
I'm inter him that's for certain
Shite ex-pro?
400+ games & 15+ trophies for United only for an anon “fan” to call him shite.
Make decorum great again
It’s just another measure. A lot of top managers over the last 10 years have been incredible players too, it obviously makes a difference. Not only was Wilcox shite, but he’s got nothing post-retirement to suggest he should be in the most influential footballing role here.
Any more?
I’m on about Wilcox. Might wanna read more than one post
Have they? Even more so for DoFs?
Johnny Evans Mrs works for the club? Interesting
Edit: FYI She worked with MUTV before they met

23min episode...let's settle down with a g&t and then take to my keyboard with gusto about loads of things I know f all about.
Hugely fond of Carrick, hope he does well.
The people who own the club are abject failures in nearly every aspect to date and they should get any criticism for what unfolds between now and the end of the season.

Consider me whelmed.
Not a single mention of suffering.
One of the interim head coaches of all time.
She has for years, before she ever married him.
Hasn't been through the door yet and the interviews have begun. Hopefully he does less of them than Ruben.
Good luck fella.
I mean get rid of him
The posters who are relived that it's not Ole are aware that Carrick was part of Ole's original team right?
I have no idea what to expect but the season has already been written off anyway. Good luck to him.

Because the good times are coming.
If he does very well, he would naturally have his name in the hat. That’s a thing to consider aftermath. Not during the season especially not before approaching other candidates.
If other more proven candidates show that they fit the job long term, it’s the board responsibility to make the call and live by their choice. It’s a good headache to have.
Now I wish Carrick all the luck. The opportunity is there but it’s a difficult challenge for him with this situation. But no pressure from me.
Glazers have played a fecking blinder.
The criticism he’s getting is really harsh. I really hope he proves the doubters wrong.
This isn’t worth thinking about. I’m open to all kinds of tattoo suggestions should we win 12 of our remaining games
Good stuff. Lets crack on now.
Good luck Michael. you will likely need a fair bit of it.
Ye but being apart of his staff and being the main guy that makes decisions are completely different. Ole would of had the final say…
That €200k Rolex looks ridiculously good on him.
Welcome Michael and good luck!
Welcome Michael and good luck!
Jobs for the girls
I don't think we do plans
Agreed
It's Michael Carrick. Hardly reason to be excited, but also perfectly fine as a temporary manager for 5 months.
Lets hope he can qualify for Europe and bring back some positivity to the club

He doesn’t want the job permanently. For most people I’d say they’d change their mind if things went well, but I get the feeling with Carrick he’d walk away even if he won every single game. Just seems like that sort of bloke.
We've got rid of the bad actors who were likely responsible for downing tools last time, its also WC year they will all want to impress so they can be a part of it.
I'm interested in seeing what he can get out of these players. Hopefully, it's more than what Amorim managed.
My hopes are not high, but it would be fantastic if he could manage to get us a 5th place (with CL football, fingers crossed).
With only PL football left and our AFCON players back we have no excuses to not improve, and we should really treat every game as a cup final. If we can somehow manage a win in one of our next two games, I believe we can go on a decent run and stay within the top 4-5 race.
