On April 23rd, Manchester United's Interim Boss, Michael Carrick, ain't sweating the crazy manager carousel in English football. The average tenure for coaches sits under two years now, with just 20 current bosses across the top four divisions holding down their gigs longer. Then the two years and eight months he put in in Middlesbrough. Shockingly, 20 new head coaches got hired, since Carrick returned to Old Trafford exactly 100 days ago on January 13th. Even with fresh examples like Liam Rosenier getting the boot from Chelsea just days after Carrick squad beat them there, he's sticking to his guns on a long-term vision. Carrick sees two sides to the pressure cooker. Yeah, the next match matters, but he's all about the bigger picture and what success really looks like. Staying positive instead of stressing worst-case scenarios. Fans are loving the turnaround since Rubin Amarim got dismissed, and most want Carrick locked in full time. A win over Brentford at Old Trafford on Monday means they'd need just two points max from their last four games

to snag a top five spot and champions. League action after two years out. Critics point to Old Gunner Solskir as a cautionary tale, but Carrick brushes off those comparisons as irrelevant. He respects his old coaching buddy and notes they did great things together. Yet today's squad is a whole different beast no matter who's calling. Chats. Carrick's not pushing for answers on his future, it'll sort itself out when the time's right. For now, he's locked in on what's achievable, keeping United charging forward.
