But Sunday's 3-1 win over Aston Villa has led Carrick's former teammate, Wayne Rooney, to call for his appointment. Carrick does not have the experience to restore United to their former glory.



His canny man-management skills, combined with the tactical acumen of a well-appointed backroom team, have put United on course for a return to the Champions League.Of course, the absence of European football at Old Trafford has helped Carrick hugely, but Ruben Amorim was never able to get the same tune out of United's squad. It's a factor former United captain Gary Neville referenced on his Sky Sports podcast after Sunday's game."I don’t think, if Manchester United finish in the Champions League, they will take Michael Carrick out and put Unai Emery in," he said.

"I don’t think they’d do that."That’s not because Carrick is a better coach; Emery is exceptional. PSG's Luis Enrique has the experience and trophies to lead a club of this stature.Having Champions League and league titles at two of the game's biggest clubs, Barcelona and PSG, he should be top of United's shortlist.
