Gary Neville, a well-known football expert, spoke about Michael Carrick after he led Manchester United to strong form, linking it to Pep Guardiola, the rival coach.
On 2 Mar 2026 GMT+7, Gary Neville, a prominent football expert, commented on Michael Carrick, the English interim manager, after leading Manchester United, a top Premier League team, to strong form, drawing comparisons to Pep Guardiola, the Spanish manager of Manchester City.
Neville said, “Honestly, I think all of us who doubted Michael Carrick when he was appointed interim manager for the second time should apologize. He has managed seven games without defeat, winning six and drawing only one. Even Pep Guardiola might not have done this.”
Michael Carrick is scheduled to lead Manchester United in their next match, an away game against Newcastle United, managed by fellow Englishman Eddie Howe, on Wednesday night, 4 Mar 2026 GMT+7, kicking off at 03:15 Thai time.
