"I really don't understand the lack of support behind Michael Carrick, he's one of us and he's doing very well. There's been negative analysis from Scholesy, but also from Roy Keane and Gary Neville. It annoys me because we want to be in the top four, and those comments are unnecessary, but this is what you do when you work in TV. You can't be positive, you have to be negative."
"Michael Carrick's record is seven games, one draw and one loss. That's the situation right now. Now Manchester United need to win their next game so they don't let that noise get to them, from the outside and from ex-players. Carrick is the man of the moment and has done really well. We should be behind him and support him."
"To be honest, I'm not surprised at that from Scholesy. He was the quietest player I've ever played with in my entire career. Now, in the media, he drops bombshells."
Michael Carrick has had an impressive start as Manchester United's caretaker manager, winning seven of his first eight games and restoring the team to Champions League positions. After a recent defeat to Newcastle United, Paul Scholes posted a critical Instagram comment suggesting Carrick's success was due to United's poor form rather than his management. Patrice Evra expressed disappointment with Scholes' criticism, noting the lack of support from former players including Roy Keane and Gary Neville. Evra argues that negative commentary from media personalities and ex-players is counterproductive when the team is performing well and needs focus. He emphasizes Carrick's strong record and calls for unified support from the club's former legends.
