How Michael Carrick Has TRANSFORMED Middlesbrough So Quickly! | Explained

[@ioemoronkeji914]

Let him carry on what he’s doing. I hope he doesn’t rush like Lampard who had a promising start also

[@Jackflip1996]

He will stay at boro for a few years I think

[@ffbear8078]

I think we're safe in terms of him staying because Man U are already doing well under Ten Hag. Realistically that's the one team that I'd understand Carrick wanting to go to regardless of how Boro are doing at the time

[@westay4924]

nah west ham need him

[@original.dwornboy]

West Ham may well need him but does Carrick need West Ham? I think not.

[@westay4924]

@@original.dwornboy of course he doesnt, but realistically its a brilliant career move if they avoid relegation. a europa quality team which is managed by a championship quality manager currently. they were 6th and 7th, Carrick could push them back up there.

Michael Carrick was a classy, highly rated as a player. He is intelligent so he will do well as a manager and coach.

[@Astrophobia88]

Ive followed Boro since 96. Had a season ticket for at least 15 seasons, albeit not atm. Other than McLarens 2005 2006 squad, this is the best Boro team i've ever seen. We play football like the Old Fergie Man u. It feels weird watching a Boro side play like this!

[@neilmoore5387]

Chuffed for Carrick. A United legend. A world class midfielder who I knew had the intelligence to go on and manage. He’s a serial winner. 5 league titles , Fa Cup , European Cup, Europa league the lot. Played 50 games a season , rarely injured. A quiet lad but a top bloke. So pleased he’s got Boro playing great football and he won’t jump ship now. He’s not daft. Not bad for a Newcastle fan😂. Well done Carrick lad.

[@akwilson1676]

I've already realized his potential during his 2 matches managing Manchester Utd. A tie vs Tu Chel's Chelsea at that time was not easy, and he was able to pull off that.

[@khanhnguyenduc9973]

Won Villarreal on the road and beat Arsenal. At first people said that Rangnick help him but it's all about Micheal Carrick

[@akwilson1676]

@@khanhnguyenduc9973 He was even more competent managing Man Utd than even Ragnick himself. Ragnick's usage of 4 2 2 2 gegenpressing with that Man Utd side was a disaster.

lifetime boro fan and the football carrick has implemented is the best ive seen since the early 2000's absolutely buzzing for us!

[@thebizness5596]

It's Carrick unooo!!!!! I'm so happy for him. Even when he was caretaker for Man Utd after Ole, for the three games you could see an instant improvement in organisation. There was something there and he made it clear that he had different ideas to Ole who was clueless. I wish Carrick all the best and I hope he stays at Middlesborough to get them promotion and does another year at the very least with them. He seems clever and humble enough to not jump the gun so soon at a so called ''better club'' so I wish him all the best.

[@krate6579]

Carrick worked under Mourinho so he has previous coaching experience with an established elite manager, similarly to Arteta.

[@loosemink]

All credit to the chairman, Steve Gibson. He has invested in the boro all his life & he is always looking to bring in new talent at every level of the club. I'm delighted for him & Carrick. UTB ♥️

[@NotSoKevin1]

It's been night and day since he arrived. The lads are playing the best I've ever seen them and they just seem so calmed and measured now. Would love to see what he does with a full season, here's hoping that he stays on Teesside for a bit and doesn't leave too soon!

[@vikashg4474]

[@beatty1229]

United should have never let him go. He was the brains behind everything good during Ole. Ragnick should have been DoF and never touched the pitch. Maybe assistant coach.

[@Pavan.Meka007]

This. Don’t u remember how good he was the 3-3 games after Ole was sacked. He takes the job so so seriously and had no ego, even wore the suit :)

[@Benjamin-gt6si]

I’m an Arsenal fan. If you rank all different types of midfielders in England. I would say Scholes is the top player. He is a genius. Best of the best. And then, a level down would be Carrick. A great player. Foden is also a great talent. Rice, Bellingham, Palmer, could become very good as well. And then, it would be Maddison. Maybe Wilshere as well. Lampard and Gerrard are overrated.

[@neilmoore5387]

@@Benjamin-gt6si. You’re spot on there with your first comment. Scholes was the best English midfielder of his generation and would walk into any team in Europe Barca at their pomp easily. A genius of a player. Then Carrick just below yes. The pair were United’s engine room through one of our most successful periods. I’ve always likened Carrick to Busquets. Very similar. Holding midfielders who can control the tempo of games , read the game and great passing ranges. I’d edge Carrick actually. Rice is decent but not at their level and don’t think ever will be. Foden is a talent it pains me to say. When he’s on his game reminds me of a Gazza with his dribbling ability. Same shit hair cut too. Looks like a little chav Foden Now United out the race for title barring a huge collapse I hope you win the league pal. Don’t want that corrupt set of cunts winning a thing. It’s all gonna come out.

[@GIBBO4182]

Crazy how many of Fergie’s ex players have become managers! I suppose he does have a lot of ex players though!

[@mitchellbrough1615]

Not that many have stood out as anything special though, Mark Hughes had probably been the best so far or Lauren blanc. Carrick is heading in the right direction though, Rooney as well until he went DC. Solskjaer deserves a shout for getting united looking like they might"ve been back for 1 season. Other than that they were all just solid e.g Steve bruce

[@lurpakspreadable9751]

Why does he need to be future england manager, that just seems like a waste to me

[@nadeemlakhi9206]

Why so? He becomes the best English manager out there and then takes the England job. That's how most nations choose their manager (with exceptions obviously)

[@lurpakspreadable9751]

@@nadeemlakhi9206 so you've just contradicted yourself then My reasoning being, he could go on to manage a massive club, compete for titles, champions leagues etc Or he could manage England through qualifying stages for tournaments against teams like Ireland and aan marino Then every 2 years compete in a major tournament (world cup or euros). The england job should be reserved for good but not world class coaches like southgate or coaches that are past their peak. I also think this because england have a very good squad already, any manager will get them to the major tournaments, then after that its all about the players character

So far Carrick has the midas touch with very good man management skills. If Boro do gain promotion, Carrick's biggest test will come next season. Fingers crossed he succeeds!

[@patrickwilliams6143]

If you had asked my around 2008 which of the current England team would go on to be quality coaches/managers I woulda said Carrick and Hargreaves and 1 outta 2 isn't bad. Not great either but hey ho. But seriously well done to Carrick. I love the Championship, I honestly think it's the most entertaining league in the world and over the years I've seen plenty of managers who are successful at that level but struggle at the level above but I don't see Carrick being one of those managers. On a tactical level he seems to understand the game in a way most English managers struggle to. Also, I've kinda had a soft spot for Boro since the Juninho/Ravenelli days so be good to see them back up there.

[@davidvalencia129]

The championship is becoming the place for our next generation of top English managers, after lampard and Gerrard I think they'll find it tough to get top 15 Prem team jobs. They have to get a team promoted and push on from there

[@willbentley8856]

Neither of them have the ego for it I don't think. You could tell Gerrard was slightly embarassed to even be at Villa. I think Lampard has the potential to be a great coach but I just don't see either of them accepting a move down there.

[@AmazinJ89]

@@willbentley8856 I actually think they both could be good managers. But the Prem is not the place to go unless you're a top coach from one of the other big leagues I'd say top 7 or leagues or you get promoted from Champ. I think more English managers should follow Scott parker and go and manage in the other top leagues first.

[@selembeselembe7075]

I think the right road map is: start from The Championship, bring the clubs promote to The Prem, and keep the clubs stay there for some seasons before move to bigger clubs.

[@MartialFitness656]

The problem is a lot of the ones either weren’t smart footballers, had natural talent and when you have that level of natural talent and things come so naturally it’s hard to say how it is you did what you did etc, and then others rushed straight into management when they should’ve done what John Terry is doing which is getting the job as an assistant, do that for a few years then start managing

[@owenbradley726]

How pleased am I with Carrick? He took a squad of players ( becasue they were not a team at all under wilder) destined for relegation to now battling for automatic promotion in 4 months. He took a player (just one example of many) who was told to “ find another club” at the start of the season and made him into the top scorer of the league and smashing middlesbroughs goal scoring records. He helped hundreds if not thousands of fans who had ultimately given up on this club and any chance of victory and helped them to falll in love all over again. What do I think of Carrick? I’ll put it down to one word. Glorious 🙌

[@kenstubbs8093]

One of the better managers if the the best we have had

[@GloriousPraiz]

I hope he stays with them for many years and probably keep them in the premier League. They do have a strong chance of getting into the premier League next season.

[@Jay864]

Carrick is great, watching the Boro is fun again, and the positivity is novel. I would say though under Wilder we were playing much better football than the standing in the table suggested, I don’t think had he stayed we would have been battling relegation all season, we would have climbed but wouldn’t be 3rd by any stretch - mid table maybe. I’m glad he’s gone though, he was always Teflon in blaming everyone but him for negative results, and the flirting with other jobs was toxic. We have a record for giving coaches first jobs and it panning out well. Woodgate was over ambitious and changed too much too often but I think in the long term he’ll wind up being a good coach too.
