"I am a bit biased of course, because I used to play with him [Carrick] and I want him to get the job but let's wait until the end of the season and if they go the way they are right now, of course, why not?"
"He [Carrick] is in this position to show that he is capable of doing these things and so far in the games that we have watched everything is just happening for the team and for him. Until the end of the season will be the test and then we'll see if Michael can get the job permanently."
"I think he knows how to speak the language in a way to get the players at United to feel appreciated, to trust him and after that to get his ideas and put it in to play on the pitch,"
Dimitar Berbatov urged patience over making Michael Carrick the permanent Manchester United manager despite Carrick's immediate positive impact. United have won four consecutive Premier League matches against top opponents, moving into the top four and Champions League positions. Berbatov cautioned against repeating the haste seen with the previous temporary appointment and recommended waiting until the season's end to judge suitability. He credited Carrick's elite communication for improving player trust, appreciation and on-field belief, noting that while tactics and management style differ, the players now display flair and renewed confidence under Carrick.
