Manchester United caretaker manager, Michael Carrick, on Sunday made history following his side’s Premier League 2-1 win against Crystal Palace.
Carrick watched as goals from Bruno Fernandes and Benjamin Sesko gave the Red Devils the win against Palace.
The victory against the visitors at Old Trafford earned Carrick 23 points in nine Premier League games as Manchester United manager (7 wins, 2 draws – including both spells).
This is the joint-best total after nine games by any manager in the Premier League history, alongside former Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou (also 23 points).
Carrick will now hope guide Man United to another victory when they face Newcastle on Wednesday.
Carrick’s side now sits in third position in the Premier League table from 51 points from 28 games.
