ALEX CROOK OPINION: Carrick's treatment is classless, but Pochettino could be Manchester United's perfect fit
11.11.26, 11:06 5 Minute Read
Regardless of the classless way a hapless hierarchy are handling Michael Carrick’s departure, Mauricio Pochettino could be the perfect fit for a desperate Manchester United.
Carrick is a man of honour who deserves better than being put through the farce of having to take training for two days knowing his exit is being plotted 1,000 miles away in Monaco.
But the lack of dignity and respect Sir Jim Ratcliffe, Jason Wilcox and Omar Berrada are showing to a club legend who saved their skins last season is symbolic of the club Pochettino will be walking into.
Less than three years since buying a minority shareholding and promising to bring the glory days back to Old Trafford, Ratcliffe has somehow managed to make a failing club WORSE. Carrick will be the third manager sacked on Ratcliffe’s watch having been set up to fail by a summer transfer window that left him short in key areas of the squad.
