Carrick: We are improving all the time

Manchester United manager Michael Carrick has emphasized that the team is fully aware of the immense significance of the upcoming derby. On Sunday, the 'Red Devils' are set to face Manchester City.

“We won last year, but we won't be doing everything the same way. I feel we are improving all the time, and that helps us. We know how big and important this match is and what it means. We are looking forward to it. We have a short time to recover and prepare. They are a very good team. They have players to rotate. We know we need to perform exceptionally well to achieve the result we want,” Carrick commented.

The coach admitted he doesn't know how long he will remain at the helm of Manchester United: “It's too early to say. All decisions have been made with the idea that I would be here for a certain period. I don't know how long, I still don't know. We are planning for the future. We know how we want to look.”

Carrick praised Marcus Rashford's performance: “I am very pleased with him. On Sunday, he posed a threat. Unfortunately, he didn't have greater success. We have various options, so I try to keep everyone fresh.”
