He West Ham-Manchester United attracted attention in England, and also outside of it, if Michael Carrick He would be able to prolong his triumphant arrival on the Red Devils' bench as a caretaker and put them in third place in the Premier League. But there was as much or more expectation for that hypothetical fifth consecutive victory for United, as, if it happened, it would finally allow their fans Frank Ilett fulfill the promise: not to cut the hair that, in despair due to the team's poor results, he has let it grow since October 5, 2024.
