He does not known whether he will be Manchester United's permanent manager next season, so speaking about the make-up of the side has proven tricky.But the former Middlesbrough boss has praised Ugarte's willingness, admitting his demeanour when not selected does not alter in the slightest."I like Manu a lot. He's been terrific around the group and I'm hugely impressed with his attitude and how he goes about it and his training qualities," said Carrick."He has a lot of really good attributes. When the team is winning, there's obviously a big upside to that. And there's always, for the one or two boys that maybe haven't played so much, obviously it makes it a little bit tougher to get in the team, but I think that creates that competition as well, in a real healthy way, that everyone's pushing each other."Manu's obviously desperate to get on the pitch more and he's doing everything he can in training and he is a big part of the group, so I think it's just a case of the results and the boys playing so well."There's going to be times when we might need to change things and freshen things up and then certainly he is a big part of that."TOPICSManchester UnitedPremier LeagueMark WhiteSocial Links NavigationContent EditorMark White is the Digital Content Editor at FourFourTwo.
