Knowing him each day, you already say, \u2018this guy deserves it\u2019. He has class, he lives and breathes the club, he knows what the club is all about.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018So, for me, this guy has to remain on the club for more years because he deserves it, he really deserves he job.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Speaking at his press conference on Thursday, Carrick insisted that he&#8217;s \u2018calm\u2019 over his future at United and believes he has not taken a short-term approach along with his decisions during his time at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018We\u2019ve got eyes on ending the season strongly as well,\u2019 Carrick said.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018So, I understand the query, I understand the timing of it, but from my viewpoint, right at this stage, it\u2019s just putting the boys in a spot to complete the season strongly, after which, as I\u2019ve said all along, and I\u2019m calm about it, it\u2019ll get sorted out when it\u2019s going to get sorted out, a few of it\u2019s out of my hands, so we\u2019ll see what happens.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I feel I\u2019ve said from the beginning, though, that I\u2019ve never approached a day here by way of any short-term decisions. Whether that\u2019s different from the outlook of others, I don\u2019t know, but from mine and positively the staff, I feel we\u2019ve definitely made decisions for the long run for the group and individually as players and the way we treat them and take a look at to assist develop them, the squad.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018So, I don\u2019t think, really, it will change the approach for the way I\u2019ve tried to go about things. Again, I understand that it could be for other people looking towards me possibly or towards us, whether that\u2019s players, whether that\u2019s supporters, whether that\u2019s you lot sitting here.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I don\u2019t understand how that changes, but possibly we\u2019ll get to see, I don\u2019t know. But actually, from my viewpoint, I feel I\u2019ve done it, gone about it, in a way that I feel is the correct approach to do it.\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>For more stories like this,\u00a0check our sport page<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Follow Metro Sport for the newest news on <meta charset=\"utf-8\"><br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sportmetro\">Facebook<\/a>,\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Metro_Sport\">Twitter<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/metrosportuk\/\">Instagram<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"metro-more-link\"><svg><title>Arrow<\/title>\n<use xlink:href=\"#common-right-arrow\" href=\"#common-right-arrow\"><\/use><\/svg><span class=\"mor-link\" data-track-module=\"mor-link_article\">MORE: Jaap Stam offers to assist Man Utd sign \u2018world-class\u2019 Barcelona star<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"metro-more-link\"><svg><title>Arrow<\/title>\n<use xlink:href=\"#common-right-arrow\" href=\"#common-right-arrow\"><\/use><\/svg><span class=\"mor-link\" data-track-module=\"mor-link_article\">MORE: Benjamin Sesko injury update as expert eases concerns over Man Utd star<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"metro-more-link\"><svg><title>Arrow<\/title>\n<use xlink:href=\"#common-right-arrow\" href=\"#common-right-arrow\"><\/use><\/svg><span class=\"mor-link\" data-track-module=\"mor-link_article\">MORE: Arsenal or PSG?
