All change as players respond to Carrick’s new rules at club
Manchester Evening News
|January 21, 2026
MICHAEL Carrick has already introduced one change at United after his predecessor Ruben Amorim ‘banned’ three things before his sacking.
-
Old Trafford legend Carrick took over from caretaker manager Darren Fletcher last week, stepping in as United's interim boss until the end of the season.
It came after Amorim was dismissed from his position as head coach 14 months into his tenure, having struggled to effectively implement his tactical philosophy and reportedly clashed with United's director of football, Jason Wilcox, over transfers.
In his first match at the helm, Carrick guided the Red Devils to an impressive 2-0 victory over City.
