Michael Carrick has admitted he will do his own version of Sir Alex Ferguson’s “hairdryer” to revive Boro.
The Manchester United legend says three unbeaten games as caretaker boss at Old Trafford convinced him he was ready for management in his own right. Tyneside-born Carrick sought advice from his old mentor Sir Alex about launching his career at Middlesbrough.
And asked if he could emulate Fergie’s dressing room rollockings, he joked: “If it needs be, yes! I have a stubborn streak. I did it certain times as a player and coach. It is not happy faces all the time. It is a mix.”
