Man Utd dominate Man City as Michael Carrick reign begins with winBy Simon Peach, Press Association Chief Football WriterMichael Carrick enjoyed a dream start to life in the Manchester United hotseat as Bryan Mbeumo and Patrick Dorgu secured a morale-boosting 2-0 derby victory against title-chasing Manchester City. Carrick was this week named head coach until the end of the season and oversaw an immediate improvement, with second-half goals from Mbeumo and Dorgu securing United a deserved win against City at a reinvigorated Old Trafford. Pep Guardiola’s side rarely threatened Carrick’s men, who would have won by more was it not for some impressive Gianluigi Donnarumma saves, the woodwork and three goals being ruled out for offside. Stuttering title challengers City may well be aggrieved that Diogo Dalot was not sent off for an early challenge on Jeremy Doku, but the red side of Manchester will not care a jot. Carrick’s delight was clear after Saturday lunchtime’s win, which followed his unbeaten three-game stint as caretaker after Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was sacked in November 2021.

Five minutes earlier, Prendergast dotted down under the posts following Harry Byrne’s chip ahead to send the four-time champions into the lead for the first time. Perhaps Bayonne wanted something positive to take back to the Top 14 — they are at home to Castres next weekend — after just one win in their last six. Whatever the reason, Bayonne proved a match for their illustrious opponents for 75 minutes. He was replaced by Sam Prendergast. The second half ran to a similar script: sterling, scrambling French defence and infuriating Leinster errors.

Only to wake to the smell of a strange bed,only to stumble to the silver water bowl,the kibble softened with unfamiliar milk. He plunged in,only to emerge sopping wet, fur flattened,the stick clenched in his jaw. When I look back, he always seems to beforgiving me with those frank eyes,shiny as the drops he shook into the air.
