🏆 Carrick crowned Manager of the Month after shining with United | OneFootball

Michael Carrick has been awarded the Premier League Manager of the Month for January.

The Manchester United coach has made a spectacular start on the Old Trafford bench, reigniting the enthusiasm of fans who were coming off a turbulent period following the departure of Ruben Amorim.

The former "Red Devils" footballer, who took on the role provisionally until the end of the current season, has exceeded all initial expectations. His leadership and game reading have been key to the team regaining its competitive identity in record time, achieving results of great international prestige.

A Blazing Start

During January, Carrick's United strung together memorable victories. Notably, a 2-0 win in the derby against Manchester City and an epic 3-2 comeback away against Arsenal, the current leader of the competition. These six points have boosted the group's confidence.

Carrick prevailed in the voting over coaches such as Liam Rosenior and Andoni Iraola. He also surpassed the recently dismissed Sean Dyche, establishing himself as the great revelation of English benches at the start of the year 2026.
