Jose Mourinho is the perfect man to reignite Manchester Uniteds fortunes, Michael Carrick has told Sky Sports F1. United confirmed the Portuguese would be Louis van Gaals successor on Friday with the club desperate to improve on a largely lacklustre three years, despite recent FA Cup glory, since Sir Alex Fergusons exit. Carrick, whose contract expires this summer, believes the future is rosy at Old Trafford. The 34-year-old, in Monaco for the Formula One, told Sky Sports F1 expert Ted Kravitz: Mourinhos track record speaks for itself. Hes a good fit for the club and hopefully hell do very well.I have to say its sad to see anyone lose their job - the manager and staff - but good times are ahead.Carrick, who joined from Tottenham for £18.6m 10 years ago, did not make Roy Hodgsons England squad for Euro 2016 having last played for his country against Spain in Alicante last November.But the midfielder expressed his delight at the young players developing on the international stage and he has high hopes for the team in France. Opening showdowns Jose Mourinhos first games in charge at United England have got a good chance, he added. Its a very young squad with great potential.Its the same old feeling with England and you dont want to get too carried away and put too much pressure on the boys going into the Championships but weve got a great chance of going very far and doing really well.Theres so much ability and so much talent in the squad. Its just letting them develop and letting the boys fulfil their potential. Im looking forward to seeing how they do.

Casey Janssen was placed on the 15-day disabled list Sunday due to a strain in his left abdominal area and lower back. Fellow right-hander Sergio Santos will take over the closers role while Janssen is out of the lineup. Janssen, 4-1 with 34 saves and a 2.56 earned-run average last year, was limited at spring training because of shoulder soreness. But on Friday, he felt some minor discomfort in his lower back while warming up during a pre-season game against the New York Mets in Montreal. An MRI exam revealed a mild strain, general manager Alex Anthopoulos said Sunday on a conference call. "We dont expect him to be out too long," Anthopoulos said. "There was a scenario where we could have just waited maybe five or six days and try to get him back going. But we want to just have this thing resolved and not nag at him." The move was retroactive to Saturday. Janssen, 32, allowed one earned run and four hits in three innings over three pre-season appearances. Hes expected to thrrow on flat ground to keep his arm in shape before trying to pitch from a mound.dddddddddddd The Blue Jays also recalled catcher Erik Kratz from triple-A Buffalo on Sunday, a day ahead of Torontos season opener at Tampa Bay. Kratz hit .400 in spring training and had been sent to minor-league camp earlier in the week after losing the backup job to Josh Thole. Santos, 30, made 29 appearances for the Blue Jays last season. He was 1-1 with one save and a 1.75 ERA. Also Sunday, former reliever Dustin McGowan pitched a simulated game and Anthopoulos said it appears hell be ready to start Friday against the New York Yankees. "Hes done so well," Anthopoulos said. "We dont expect any changes at all. So far, so good. He felt good, felt strong, and we expect him to be good to go for Opening Day in Toronto." McGowan, 32, was named to the starting rotation earlier in the week. The right-hander made his debut with the Blue Jays in 2005 but has battled injuries throughout his career. McGowan had a 2.45 ERA in 25 appearances last season and did not record a decision or a save. ' ' '
