Mourinho mocks Carrick.

Coach Jose Mourinho made some sarcastic remarks about Manchester United after his former club decided to appoint Michael Carrick as interim manager until the end of the season.

Although he didn't mention names, the Portuguese manager still drew attention when he expressed his "surprise" at the Red Devils' decision. "It's surprising that a coach with no track record has the opportunity to manage one of the world's top teams. If AC Milan appointed Max Allegri, Juventus welcomed Luciano Spalletti, or AS Roma chose Gian Piero Gasperini, that would be something I wouldn't be surprised about," Mourinho said.

Carrick was given the responsibility by MU after manager Ruben Amorim was sacked in early January, ending a turbulent 14-month period marked by internal disagreements. The former England midfielder returned to his old club, where he played from 2006 to 2018, with the expectation of stabilizing the dressing room and salvaging the season.

Coach Carrick's start on the Manchester United bench has been impressive. In the Manchester derby on January 17th, the "Red Devils" defeated Man City 2-1 thanks to second-half goals from Bryan Mbeumo and Patrick Dorgu. This victory is crucial in MU's race to qualify for next season's Champions League.

Mourinho had a memorable time at Old Trafford, leading Manchester United to victory in both the Europa League and the League Cup in his first season. Therefore, his statements were quickly interpreted as a subtle reminder to the club's leadership, especially as the club is still struggling to regain its former status in European football.
