"He's close with the players, he can have a laugh, but he has a bit of authority about him as well. He has that real understanding of what players want and need and what drives them."
"I'm more concerned with the appointment and the staff that have come in. But I think I would be like that with most people at this stage of the season. Looking at the group of players they have, it is going to be a big ask."
Roy Keane previously criticized the appointment of Jonathan Woodgate as a coach at Manchester United following Ruben Amorim's dismissal. However, reports indicate the United dressing room has warmed significantly to Woodgate under interim manager Michael Carrick. Woodgate's Spanish language skills have proven valuable with Spanish-speaking players, and he is described as having authority while maintaining approachability. Keane had expressed concerns about United's coaching appointments, viewing them as an obsession with former players. Despite his skepticism, Manchester United has experienced a remarkable transformation, currently holding the Premier League's longest unbeaten streak at ten matches, including victories against Arsenal and Manchester City. Much of this success is attributed to Carrick's coaching staff.
