Man Utd should make Carrick manager for rest of season, says Berbatov

Manchester United should appoint Michael Carrick as interim manager until the end of the season but also target Mauricio Pochettino to become their long-term manager, according to the club's former striker Dimitar Berbatov. Berbatov's former Manchester United teammate Carrick has been put in temporary charge at Old Trafford in the wake of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's sacking. Former Tottenham Hotspur manager Pochettino, 49, is long-admired by Manchester United, but it seems unlikely that Paris St Germain would entertain allowing him to leave this season. Former Bulgaria striker Berbatov believes Carrick, who will take the team for Tuesday's crucial Champions League tie at Villarreal, is the ideal man to steady the ship.
