"100% he should [get the job]. I have said this. I knew this was going to happen with Michael Carrick. I know him very well. I know his character, his personality. It needed a calm head, but someone who knows the place and the players needed some love, and he has given them that."
"Carrick has won all six of his Premier League home games with United, becoming just the fourth manager in the competition's history to win their first six such matches. His impressive returns have also included a derby-day win over Manchester City at Old Trafford, and an eye-catching 3-2 victory away at leaders Arsenal."
"Since Carrick's first league match back in charge of United on January 17, they have earned 22 points in nine Premier League games (W7 D1), more than any other side. Carrick's main challenge will be getting United back into the Champions League, though they sit three points clear of the chasing pack and just seven points behind second-place Man City with eight games remaining."
