An Old Statement Becomes a Prophecy: Ronaldo Evokes Carrick's Genius with United's Brilliance
The brilliance of Manchester United under the leadership of Michael Carrick brought back memories of Cristiano Ronaldo's words from four years ago, when he asserted that the English coach has the ingredients for success and does not know the meaning of impossible.
Carrick led the team during an interim period with a strong start, achieving two notable victories: the first against Manchester City in the city derby with a 2-0 scoreline, followed by an exciting 3-2 win over Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.
These results brought back a tweet from Ronaldo in December 2021, in which he said that Carrick is an exceptional player and capable of becoming a great coach, expressing his pride in playing under his leadership.
The return of the statements coincided with a notable irony, as Carrick had previously ended his interim period with a similar victory over Arsenal 3-2, one of the few teams that scored two goals against teams led by Carrick.
The support was not limited to Ronaldo alone, as Rio Ferdinand had previously praised Carrick, describing him as the most underrated in evaluation, and defended him after Roy Keane questioned his coaching abilities.
Ferdinand responded strongly to Keane's statements, considering the belittlement of Carrick as disrespectful, and affirming that what he offers deserves praise, calling on fans to support him and back Manchester United.
Bastian Schweinsteiger also joined the list of supporters, sending an encouraging message to Carrick, urging him to continue working with the same spirit, and encouraging the team to move forward.
Although it is still too early for a final judgment, Carrick's impact has become evident, especially with his contract nearing its end in June, as anticipation builds for what the coming weeks will reveal.
