Manchester United's academy stars and their parents are reportedly delighted that Michael Carrick has replaced recently sacked head coach Ruben Amorim.

Now that Carrick is at the helm, some families have been encouraged by his "lovely and welcoming" style.

Arsenal extended their lead at the top of the Premier League last weekend by picking up a point at Nottingham Forest while their only two title rivals, Manchester City and Aston Villa, both lost. However, the dour 0-0 draw at the City Ground, which was only enlivened by a late row over a disputed penalty shout, raised some serious questions over the visitors' attacking threat, given it was their second consecutive scoreless stalemate, after being held at home by Liverpool the week before.

Manchester United boss Michael Carrick has revealed that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer congratulated him on pipping him to the position earlier this month. The former Middlesbrough manager got the nod over the Norwegian following the sacking of head coach Ruben Amorim.

Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney has sent a 'proud' message to son Kai after the 16-year-old made his Old Trafford debut on Friday night. The younger Rooney came off the bench during United Under-18s' FA Cup fourth round win over Derby with his mother and father watching on in the stands. Darren Fletcher's side had to work hard to claim victory on home turf, however.

Jason McAteer has revealed how his long-running feud with former Republic of Ireland team-mate Roy Keane was put to bed in a cafe last year. The pair shared a number of battles in the Premier League during the late 1990s and 2000s, with Keane's Manchester United often getting the better of McAteer, who played for Liverpool before a later stint with Sunderland. Now, the latter has revealed how their disagreement came to a surprising end thanks to the help of Jamie Carragher.

Manchester United have conceded that midfield target Elliot Anderson favours a summer switch to rivals Manchester City. The Nottingham Forest star has caught the attention of the Premier League pair having shone for the Tricky Trees this season.

Wayne Rooney watched on incognito as his son, Kai, made his first Old Trafford appearance for Manchester United. The Red Devils' Under-18s took on Derby in the fourth round of the FA Youth Cup at the Theatre of Dreams on Friday night and claimed a 2-1 win to book their place in the next round.

Michael Carrick’s first game back in charge of Manchester United was a euphoric occasion, with his side’s dominant win over Manchester City bringing a smile to every person present at Old Trafford.

Michael Carrick has hailed Kobbie Mainoo's "quality" and admits he is enjoying working with the young Manchester United midfielder. The 20-year-old was relegated to being a fringe player under former Red Devils boss Ruben Amorim as he did not quite fit into his 3-4-3 system. However, it appears that the England international will get more of a chance under interim boss Carrick.
