Maguire Credits Carrick’s Tactical Shift for England Recall

1 / 5

Harry Maguire has praised Manchester United interim boss Michael Carrick for reviving his career and securing his England return after 18 months away. The defender has been a regular this season and helped United push for a top-four finish. Maguire says Carrick’s move from a back three to a back four at Old Trafford reignited his form just months before the World Cup. He admits he might have missed England’s friendly against Uruguay without that change. The 31-year-old explained that a back four suits his aggressive style. He prefers driving forward and engaging attackers over a sweeper role. Maguire believes United’s improved results reflect Carrick’s smart tactical decision.
