Michael Carrick couldn’t have dreamed of a better start to life as Man United’s interim boss after successive wins against the Premier League’s top two - in Arsenal & Manchester City.A few more performances like Sunday’s at the Emirates and the clamour for him to stay on will be deafening - in some quarters it’s already started! ... But United have been here before.The Athletic's Man United writer Carl Anka & Neil Redfearn (who's no stranger to the 'caretaker's job') join Chappers to work out if lessons been learnt at the club internally, if there's really a better choice than Carrick for the permanent job and what Premier League history can teach us about how it usually works out for the caretakers who get the job full-time.📩 Got a question?
