Michael Carrick says Manchester United FC needs to stay grounded, even though they’ve climbed up to third place in the Premier League.
Since taking over from Ruben Amorim in January, Carrick has led United to 23 points in nine league games, with seven wins and two draws. This matches the best start any manager has ever had in the Premier League over their first nine matches.
The Red Devils are 13 points behind Arsenal, with just 10 games left in the season, still holding onto a slim chance at the title.
Opta’s projections show that United have a good shot at making the Champions League, and a top-four finish is looking more and more possible.
Carrick is more focused on keeping things steady than making bold predictions. He said, “You can’t rule anything out in football, but we need to stay realistic.”We’ve done well so far, and all we need to do now is keep winning games.
United’s recent upturn has got people talking about whether Carrick will end up with the permanent job, especially if he manages to get them into the top four. Right now, the former midfielder is focused on keeping the momentum going as the season hits its crucial phase.
