Manchester United’s captain Bruno Fernandes has revealed why the club has been successful since the arrival of Michael Carrick at Old Trafford.
The Portugal international was speaking after the victory over Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday, February 7, 2026, where he was delighted with the new change at Manchester United.
A 2–0 win over 10-man Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday means Carrick becomes just the third manager in United history to win their first four competitive matches. His predecessor, Ruben Amorim, never recorded four straight wins across his 63 games in charge.
He said,
"I think Michael came in with the right ideas of giving the players the responsibility, but also some freedom to take the responsibility on the pitch during the decisions that are needed. He’s very good with the words and I think he still remembers when I told him last time he was our manager, for our last game, and I was sure Michael could be a great manager and now he is showing it. We hope we can help him even more so everyone can see, not just us as the players, that we are good players and that is why we are at Manchester United, but also the staff is very good.”
Manchester United supporters will hope that Carrick can steady the ship at the club going into the rest of this next season and the upcoming 2026/27 season.
