Scholes said on The Good, The Bad & The Football podcast<\/a>. \u201cIf you put yourself in the owner\u2019s shoes or whoever is making the decision, he\u2019s putting real pressure on them to get the job.<\/p>\n\u201cThe people making that decision might have to think about it a little bit differently because I don\u2019t think you need the most technical or talented coach.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re at a big club with good players who know what they\u2019re doing, maybe they need a man-manager more than anything.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you look back to Sir Alex [Ferguson] he was never a coach really but he knew the players, he knew what the players needed and how to treat players to get the best out of them.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you look at Real Madrid with Carlo Ancelotti, Zinedine Zidane, I don\u2019t think they\u2019re the most technical or tactical coaches but they\u2019re good man-managers.<\/p>\n
\u201cRuben Amorim seemed obsessed with tactics and it didn\u2019t work, Xabi Alonso seemed the same at Real Madrid. Do those type of big clubs need those coaches or a more man-manager?<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t know what Michael\u2019s coaching style is like but I can imagine as a man-manager he\u2019s very good because he\u2019s brilliant with people and players.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe question over Michael is does he have the experience? I know he\u2019s managed in the Championship but this is obviously different.<\/p>\n
\u201cCan we see Carrick winning United the Premier League? Look, we don\u2019t know yet.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow the perfect one out there\u2026 Ancelotti is still out there, I know he\u2019s with Brazil, but he\u2019s that perfect one for Manchester United where you think he would make players feel a million dollars and he\u2019s got the experience of winning trophies.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe only question would be is he too old? That\u2019s the only thing, is there anyone else of that ilk with a bit more experience?<\/p>\n
\u201cThe way you judge a Manchester United manager is to look ahead and think, \u2018can United win the league with this manager?\u2019 It\u2019s not a case of finishing in the top-four, you need a manager who you think can win you the Premier League.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe great thing someone like Ancelotti has is experience \u2013 I know that sounds obvious \u2013 but we don\u2019t know yet how Michael Carrick will deal with going through a bit of adversity.\u201d<\/p>\n
