Jamie Carragher bluntly insists there's no reason to feel sorry for Michael Carrick, arguing that he has yet to reach the level of the Premier League's top managers. 𝗝𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗲 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗵𝗲𝗿 : “First of all, this isn't about Michael Carrick. It's about Manchester United. The people in charge have to decide what's best for the club. But I'm not sitting here feeling sorry for Michael Carrick. He got the job largely because he'd played for United and done really well. “He hasn't spent 10 years managing different clubs, building his reputation and working his way towards this opportunity. He had around two years at Middlesbrough before getting the Manchester United job. He was suddenly managing one of the biggest clubs in the world without having built up years of experience at the highest level. “Now, I'm not dismissing what he's achieved. He got them into the Champions League and won some massive games against Arsenal and Liverpool. He's done really well in many respects. But he was never quite at the level of the best managers in the Premier League.”
