Yeah, I mean, I know it feels, sounds very simple and simplistic and there's more to it obviously than just that.

But what Carrick has done since taking over really, even in terms of going back to basics,

Practically, going back to a 4-2-3-1 that everybody was very familiar and comfortable with compared to what Armoury used to do before, which we described so many times on the show, we don't need to go again.

Putting players in their right position, okay, Meynou back, okay, to a certain extent Maguire back, I'm not a big fan as you know, but to be fair, he's been very solid.

They wrote their luck a little bit, maybe at times, but they also showed a lot of character.

And in more recent games, to go back when they were behind at West Ham, to get that draw from Susco, to find a way to beat Everton, for example, on Monday.

Today, they go behind.

And here, of course, the red card changes a lot of things.

But still, they come back from behind to go and win this game.

It's massive.

I think when he took over, they were 11 points behind Villa.

11 points behind Vela.

And now, five weeks later or six weeks later, they're above them in goal difference, but they're level with them now in terms of points.

It's incredible what happened in seven games.

And obviously what helps massively, but that also helped Amorim and he didn't make the most of it.

is that they don't play in Europe.

They have one game a week.

They've had one game a week since he took over because they were not in the FA Cup either, to be fair.

So it's a long week to prepare, to rest players, get ready for the next game and then go again.

And he's made the most of it.
