Why THIS Is KEY To Carrick's Tactical Plan!

Being prepared to tweak rather than arrogantly sticking to principles is key. Winning is key. Getting substantially better results with the same players is significant. He gets the job for me. He hasn’t done anything wrong and, if he was to win our first title since 2012-13, then he’d be the first English manager to win the title since Howard Wilkinson.

Carrick was an extraordinary footballer and he is now proving to be a manager with extraordinary potential.

Great video, AJ. People chatting that Carrick isn't flexible enough yet playing 4, 3 and 5 at the back within the same match; playing 2 up front, one up front, false 9 in attack. With our thin squad, we've had to be clever with what we have and Carrick has done that with the points to prove it. Now give him his players and his pre-season and let's goooooo

Carrick is Ole 2.0. He’ll get some decent results, he’ll get on well with players but I’ve not seen anything so far that suggests that his teams will control matches and consistently open teams up.

I would love for you to cover formations or tactics that have been successful against low block teams. I feel like it is always our kryptonite, but I also feel like I fundamentally don't understand what you are SUPPOSED to do in those situations. I don't watch nearly as much football as you do, so I don't really have a specific team or any examples to point at. I would just love to understand how to break down a low block.

we should stick with him long term focus should be more focus on solid recruitment and great strategy also to bring more attacking footy to OT and we need to focus on signing the right squad profiles and invest in atleast 5-6 players this summer realistically with sales included

Love your content bro💙

I reckon Carrick's flexible management style is the exact type of coaching style that suits the tradition's of Utd. A fixed philosophy style coach doesn't seem to work at this club based on the ten hag & amorim reigns.

I’m not worried about Carrick’s defensive approach & adaptability. I haven’t seen enough improvisation on the offensive side. His standard seems to be counter attack & individual brilliance. I have questions about his offensive adaptability. At best I would give Carrick a one year deal with a plus one option. The goal will be back to back years in the championship league.

If only carrick could control games he would be phenomenal

Great video AJ!! I totally feel Carrick deserves to be backed and I believe the board knows this too. He's flexible in his approach and confident! He's brought out the best of the players available to him and returning United to the CL. These great managers we so admire all sized big opportunities the way Carrick is now to become great.

AJ is my favorite tactical analysis channel been here since you were on 14 subs 🙏🦔🇿🇦

Massive respect to the speed you release loads of quality indepth content AJ ....you make it look easy 🙌

One of the biggest misconceptions about SAF was that he "didn't do tactics" and "only played one way." While not a genius at the tactical game, he was constantly adapting and shifting United's system to get the best out of our players or nullify the threat of the opposition. Did it always work? No. But it would have been something Carrick noticed while playing for the great man.

Give carrick the Job⚽🔥💯🇰🇪

Ferguson had his Rene Meulensteen and Carlos Quieroz. Carrick has Holland.

I very much believe we have a match made in heaven here. But I'm worried about not having Casemiro and the potential need to start lightening the load on Bruno very soon. I want Carrick for that similar "Sir Alex" branded adaptability but maybe the manager will not do a good job to have him around long enough.
