Wayne Rooney has called on Manchester United to give Michael Carrick the manager’s job permanently.
The 3-1 win over Aston Villa at Old Trafford yesterday took United clear in third place in the Premier League.
Since he was named head coach for the remainder of the season in January, Carrick has guided his side to seven wins in nine games.
Across his two spells in charge, only Sven Goran Eriksson, Carlo Ancelotti and Manuel Pellegrini have eclipsed his record of six straight home wins at the start of their first Premier League job.
United chiefs want to assess all options before making a decision in the summer and minority owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe refused to be drawn on Carrick’s future when he was asked about it in Shanghai before this weekend’s Chinese Grand Prix.
