Pretty practical.
I wouldn't rule out the possibility that Carrick will do a good job as interim. He's a smart guy who gets how midfields work.

We have a game on Tuesday. It doesn't make sense to sack them all and leave Carrick by himself. Let's see if changes come when we find an interim manager.
If we waste half a season to hang around for Poch or Rodgers then that’s absolute disaster class decision making.
There are very few managers worth doing that for, if it’s ten Hag I think most would accept that but anyone else and they better hit the ground running.

It's not the Greeks, it's the Chinese he's after
My feeling as well. Ten Hag is worth waiting for otherwise I would have preferred Conte when he was available when compared to any others.
Won't happen before WC, so probably have to wait until 2023.
Carrick, McKenna, Fletcher and the rest need to be thrown out too. What top manager would want to work with Fletcher as "technical director"...absolute joke.
Go for Enrique. Attacking football.
Can we bring Ole in to hold the fort as the interim while you look for a new manager? That seems like a sensible thing to do.
I got Gary Neville.
Eddie Howe
I”m really surprised that a Manager who has never managed in any of the top leagues in Europe is the favourite to take over!Okay,his Ajax team reached a CL semifinal….But honestly what’s the big deal?Pochettino took Tottenham to a CL final(surely a greater achievement than reaching a semifinal).
The difference between the Dutch league and the EPL is absolutely huge….

The right choice this now. Surely the club have the money to buy him out of his Spanish contract right now. Glaziers might listen to Ronaldo.
Tuchel and Klopp
I'd give it to Roy Keane till the end of the season.
Players won't know what hit them. He's looking for a new managers job as well.

Piers Morgan
His influence has also been related with the failure of two successive managers. When the next manager comes the lot of them will be gone.
Fair enough. But the bigger danger is that we appoint some second rater now to stabilise the share price. Or someone completely wrong to placate Ronaldo's ego. If Carrick can keep us afloat till the right person comes available then that's Ok by me. If not then Lampard. Just please no Bodger
Isn't Enrique high press? How would Ronaldo fit in with that?
Please don't say it even as a joke. The Board is incompetent enough to do it.
This is my worry with him
By busting the myth that pressing is overly demanding, while it is just a way of coordinated movement.
Just pay the money. If Glazers really care about winning trophies, they should be paying to the best and most suitable manager for man united right now. We are still in champions league and that means we can still win the CL like what Tuchel did to Chelsea if that right manager is taking in charged now.
I think it is possible. If the board really want him he will probably join the club. But I am not sure about the rumour.
Exactly, a press is not really needed for a cf as long as he is positioned well blocking of the passing lanes.
Surely Enrique could do both roles until the summer? There’s no internationals until March right? He’d be great.
I feel like the word 'just' is doing an awful lot more work in that sentence than it can cope with. It is the Fred of that sentence in fact...
Coordinated movement is extremely complicated to do well. If you have a forward who doesn't high press, you don't have a high press.
So why do Klopp and Pep not take that view? Does the Caf know more about high press than they do?
I would love this to be true.
Same, would he leave Spain before the world cup though ?
I'd take him over Ten Hag, Zidane, Poch all of them.
Doubt Enrique will leave before WC, he recently rejected chance a return to Barca.
Wonder if it's a possibility if he can do both until the WC then take sole charge of us after.
Letting Ronaldo choose the coach would be extremely unwise. Much as I admire his skills as a finisher and his passion for winning, his narcissism and ego are so huge they are visible from space. He will want a coach who benefits FC Ronaldo.
Enrique would be class. Could he not do both jobs like Hiddink did with Chelsea and Russia?
Chelsea nearly won the CL with this under Avram Grant. Every manager has a shelf life. Players like Bruno and Ronaldo and Pogba will still want to win things. I imagine with Carrick standing in there will be an element of the team managing itself, so to speak, like the coaches and the senior players deciding how they think they should play/line up etc.
