Michael Carrick has broken another Ruben Amorim record despite taking charge of Manchester United for just four matches.

Last month, Amorim's turbulent time as United boss came to an end after a 1-1 draw against Leeds United.

Following Darren Fletcher's two-match spell as interim boss, ex-United midfielder Carrick was appointed until the end of the 25/26 season.

Since then, the Red Devils have embarked on a brilliant run, beating the likes of Manchester City, Arsenal and Fulham.

On Saturday, United were back in Premier League action at Old Trafford as they took on Tottenham Hotspur.

With 29 minutes on the clock, Spurs were reduced to 10 men after Cristian Romero's high tackle on Casemiro.

United then took the lead in the 38th minute courtesy of Bryan Mbeumo.

In the second half, United went 2-0 up thanks to a goal by captain Bruno Fernandes.

Following another vital victory, the Red Devils are now on 44 points, two points behind Aston Villa and three adrift of local rivals City.

As Carrick's positive start to life at United continues, it has been claimed that he has broken another Amorim record.

According to The Sun, Carrick named an unchanged starting XI against Spurs on the back of the dramatic 3-2 win over Fulham.

The 44-year-old also named unchanged teams when they took on City and Arsenal.

It has been claimed that the only change Carrick has made during his first four matches in charge was to bring in Matheus Cunha for the injured Patrick Dorgu.

As a result, Carrick has now named an unchanged XI on two occasions.

During his spell in charge, Amorim only ever named the same starting XI once in 47 Premier League matches.

The only time Amorim didn't make any changes was against Nottingham Forest and Brighton and Hove Albion.

Amorim's decision was proved correct as they beat Brighton 4-2 before drawing 2-2 against Forest.
