Giggs: Carrick should get the job

Manchester United have been transformed under interim manager Michael Carrick following the sacking of Ruben Amorim.

We were as close to 12th in the table as we were to 4th when Amorim was dismissed at the beginning of January. We’re now third in the table, six points behind local rivals Manchester City, and going to the football feels exciting again.

Speaking to the fan channel Webby and O’Neill, Ryan Giggs has claimed he thinks Carrick should be given the job on a permanent basis.

The hardest thing in the world as a manager is to win games and he’s doing that, we’ve lost one game. Not only that, just the feeling around the place, we were going to games and watching games not knowing what we were going to get. It’s all changed now, fans are coming to games now or watching TV thinking, ‘right, we’ve got a massive chance here.’

We’re looking up now rather than down – can we catch City? The turnaround has been amazing. I think we were all like, well I was, ‘we need seven or eight players,’ to now maybe needing three or four in the summer, which is more achievable than seven or eight players.

I can’t see past Michael at the moment, I just can’t. I think he’s brought a calmness, I think he’ll bring in Man United players because he knows the club. Give him time I think he goes from strength to strength.
