Manchester United striker, Matheus Cunha is certain that the team can go on a winning streak after Michael Carrick guided the Red Devils to a 2-0 victory over Manchester City in his first game in charge.
Carrick, 44, took over at United until the conclusion of the season after Ruben Amorim was fired in early January after 14 months in charge.
“We’re still getting to know [Michael] Carrick,” Cunha said as reported by Globoesporte.
“He’s a highly respected name, not only at United, but in the Premier League as well.”

Carrick, a former United player, is serving as the team’s caretaker coach for the second time after leading the club for three games during the 2021–22 season.
Cunha Claims Carrick ‘Knows The Path To Victory’
United legend and television pundit Roy Keane was skeptical of Carrick’s return, however, Cunha said: “He’s [Carrick] written his history here in the most positive way possible and brings with him a winning mentality worthy of the club. He knows the path to victory.”
“I think, considering the whole context, it was the most important victory since I arrived at United,” Cunha said. “We know the weight of the match and the quality of the opponent.
“It’s one of the toughest games in England. But when you go onto the pitch representing a club the size of Manchester United, you always have to give your best, especially on days like these.
“The demands are high and we have to live up to them. I’m happy to have helped with an assist, but even happier with the three points. May this be the beginning of a new cycle for our team.”
