CARRICK DOWNPLAYS UNITED JOB TALK AFTER LIVERPOOL WIN.

Michael Carrick refused to be drawn into speculation over becoming Manchester
United F.C.’s permanent manager after Sunday’s dramatic 3-2 win over Liverpool
F.C. secured Champions League qualification.

Late goals from Kobbie Mainoo sealed the victory after Liverpool fought back from
goals by Matheus Cunha and Benjamin Šeško.

Carrick has overseen an impressive run since taking charge, guiding United to major
wins over Arsenal, Manchester City, Chelsea, and Liverpool.

“I love doing what I’m doing,” Carrick said. “It feels pretty natural, if I’m totally
honest.”

Mainoo also praised the interim boss, saying, “All the confidence he gives the
players, you want to fight for him and die for him on the pitch.”

Despite sealing a return to Europe’s top competition with three games remaining,
Carrick insisted United must keep pushing forward.

“We want more than that,” he said. “It’s not just to sit back and think we’ve achieved
something.”
