Michael Carrick
January 2026
Bruno Fernandes said he always believed Michael Carrick would become a strong manager after working with him during his 2021 interim stint, as United won 2-0 at Spurs for Carrick’s fourth straight win this season. Fernandes delivered the corner for the opener scored by Bryan Mbeumo, then scored himself from Diogo Dalot’s cross after Cristian Romero’s red card. He credited Carrick’s approach of giving players responsibility and freedom on the pitch.
