Roy Keane admitted he has to give Michael Carrick “credit where it’s due” following Manchester United’s 2-0 victory against Manchester City despite previously saying he was concerned by the appointment.

The 44-year-old took the Old Trafford hot seat until the end of the campaign after Ruben Amorim was sacked last Monday and made an impressive start to life as boss with a commanding win over their neighbours.
