After Manchester United beat Arsenal 3-2 at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday, Gary Neville has told the Red Devils interim manager, Michael Carrick, to be ready to pass on the coaching role to someone with more experience.
However, he commended the former midfielder for the efforts he has made since taking on the role of interim head coach during a challenging period for the club.
He mentioned that regardless of where the Red Devils finish in the season, they should hire a top manager like Thomas Tuchel or Carlo Ancelotti for the next season.
Neville told Sky Sports, “He’s a really good person, he was a fantastic player, he’s understated, he’s calm and he won’t get too excited or too upset.
“A few weeks ago, before the first game, I think everyone in football believed that a big success would be for Michael Carrick to take charge for the rest of the season.
They hoped it would bring some happiness back to the players and fans, improve the team’s performance, and try to get them into Europe.
“If he managed that, then he would pass the responsibility on to someone else.
“Manchester United has shown emotional reactions several times over the past 10 to 12 years. I’m really, really happy with how the last two weeks have gone.
“The feeling of recognizing what I’m watching is like seeing my team play again, just the way it should be. Forget that they won the two games, they just played the game the right way.
“That’s how I would expect them to play — with intensity, energy, and quality. So I believe it’s correct for Michael Carrick to stay in his position until the end of the season and then pass on leadership to someone like Thomas Tuchel or Carlo Ancelotti, who are of top-level quality. That’s what his job is now.
“Michael is an unemotional guy. He will realize that what I’m saying now is the same thing I said two weeks ago.”
