ROONEY - Don't overlook what's right in front of you

WAYNE Rooney says United's interim manager Michael Carrick should not be overlooked for the role on a permanent basis.

- By MARK WALKER

Former United midfielder Carrick was appointed as caretaker boss until the end of the season soon after Ruben Amorim was sacked in early January.

And United's all-time leading goalscorer Rooney believes his former teammate could be the one to finally stabilise the club.

Rooney told The Overlap: "We've been there and tried different managers - (Jose) Mourinho, (Louis) van Gaal, (Erik) ten Hag and (Ruben) Amorim - and for me Carrick makes sense.

"Not because we've played together and we're friends, but because he is a real calming influence.
