"I think, considering the whole context, it [the derby victory] was the most important victory since I arrived at United. We know the weight of the match and the quality of the opponent. It's one of the toughest games in England. But when you go onto the pitch representing a club the size of Manchester United, you always have to give your best, especially on days like these."
"We're still getting to know Carrick. He's a highly respected name, not only at United, but in the Premier League as well. He's written his history here in the most positive way possible and brings with him a winning mentality worthy of the club. He knows the path to victory."
Michael Carrick was appointed Manchester United caretaker manager and led the team to a 2-0 win over Manchester City in his first game in charge. Carrick remains unbeaten as United manager in four matches (P4 W3 D1), having previously taken over for three games in 2021. The derby victory ended a four-game winless run following interim results under Ruben Amorim and Darren Fletcher. Carrick won 12 major trophies across 12 years as a player and is credited with a winning mentality. Matheus Cunha assisted in the derby, called it his most important United victory, and hopes it begins a new cycle. United are fifth in the Premier League.
