Manchester United legend Roy Keane has insisted that Michael Carrick should not be named permanent manager. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, even though Carrick has brilliantly delivered amazing results against two of the best teams in the EPL, he is still not convinced he is the man for the job.
Keane added that MUFC clearly needs a bigger and better manager to compete for the best titles.
His words, “As we know you win one, two games for Manchester United, fantastic, particularly to beat City. To come to Arsenal where I felt United would get a result today. I was thinking maybe more of a draw but I always thought United would turn up.
They have enough quality players. They’ve got momentum now in their season and all of a sudden, you’re looking at United and thinking – great chance of top four. If they play with that confidence and belief, then you give the manager credit and his staff credit and the players for turning up.
You’re being silly now. Two great performances, but anybody can win two games. It’s what he does until the end of the season, and even if they do get into fourth I’m not convinced he’s the man for the job. Absolutely not. I think they need a bigger and better manager. But he’s got the opportunity. What a chance for him and he’s taken it, so fair play to him.”
WOW.
Manchester United Football Club, commonly referred to as Man United or simply United, is a professional football club based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top division in the English football league system.
Nicknamed the Red Devils, they were founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, but changed their name to Manchester United in 1902. After a spell playing in Clayton, Manchester, the club moved to their current stadium, Old Trafford, in 1910.
Alex Ferguson and his assistant Archie Knox arrived from Aberdeen on the day of Atkinson’s dismissal, and guided the club to an 11th-place finish in the league. Despite a second-place finish in 1987–88, the club was back in 11th place the following season. Reportedly on the verge of being dismissed, Ferguson’s job was saved by victory over Crystal Palace in the 1990 FA Cup final.
The following season, Manchester United claimed their first UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup title. That triumph allowed the club to compete in the European Super Cup for the first time, where United beat European Cup holders Red Star Belgrade 1–0 at Old Trafford. The club appeared in two consecutive League Cup finals in 1991 and 1992 the left and the right, but he’s not got any sense of danger yet, and empties the midfield area too readily.
