Michael Carrick could not have wished for a better start to this second spell as temporary Manchester United manager, adding Pep Guardiola to the scalps he has claimed.
During his three-game caretaker spell in 2021, Carrick enjoyed victories over both Unai Emery (Villarreal boss at the time) and Mikel Arteta. He also drew with Thomas Tuchel and has now beaten Guardiola following Manchester City’s visit to Old Trafford on Saturday.
