Michael Carrick
April 2026
Joe Cole and Owen Hargreaves say Manchester United would be making a major mistake if they do not hand Michael Carrick the job permanently. The support comes after Carrick’s strong run pushed United into a strong Champions League position. Both pundits argued Carrick has already proved himself through results, game management and understanding of the club’s demands. Hargreaves said United have been the best team in the league during his run, while Cole called it absurd to look elsewhere now.
