I find the vast majority of this “oh poor Carrick” bit being run to be very performative to deflect from many people being SO wrong about him as coach.
He’s fine, he’s a legend of the football club, and he’s an adult who knows what’s happening, agreed to it, has been happy with what he was given, and could very easily walk away if he wanted.
He’s a head coach, who is doing a very poor job (which doesn’t mean everyone else is doing a good job), and has United in relegation. I’ll be very happy he is replaced, because I don’t want to see United relegated. It’s that simple.
Michael Carrick broke our half time record at Old Trafford against Brighton and nobody is saying anything about it...
Funny how your reactions change depending on the person on the touchline
This whole faux outrage needs to stop. @David_Ornstein literally explained the logistics of this on the Talk of the Devils podcast earlier. They can’t sack him when their replacement hadn’t yet been agreed. Carrick is a grown man, a millionaire about to receive more. He’s fine!
Frank Lampard — FAILED
Steven Gerrard — FAILED
Wayne Rooney — FAILED
Gary Neville — FAILED
Graham Potter — FAILED
Roy Hodgson — FAILED
Steve Bruce — FAILED
M. Carrick — FAILED
Eddie Howe — FAILED
Genuine question: When was the last time an English manager achieved anything significant at the highest level of club football?
Why do we keep pretending English managers are the answer?
🚨🚨HARD TRUTH;
I am one Manchester United fan that doesn’t believe Carrick failing is because he wasn’t backed.
Are you going to say Middlesbrough didn’t back Carrick?
I am one Manchester United fan that want Carrick sacked and will be happy he will get sacked.
I am one Manchester United fans that believes Carrick is mediocre and tactically not sound and should be kicked out of the club with security.
Manchester United lost only Casemiro and you’re telling me is because United didn’t sign a defender is why United should be sitting in relegation.
What happened to Kamason, Amass, Dan Amer.
You’re telling me because no defenders was signed is why United can’t win games.
Same defenders that got Carrick to 3rd position.
Call a spade, a spade. Carrick is a failure, mediocre and a disgrace.
Go and study his history at Middlesbrough. Carrick was given players at Middlesbrough and he couldn’t have a consistent starting 11 or find a right balance from his new signings similar to his spell at United.
I never wanted Carrick anywhere near United as the head coach cause the data proved he was sinking the club.
