José Mourinho said:
"Michael is a very intelligent midfielder and a great reader of the game. I am pleased that he will be extending his contract. His form this year shows his ability and his enjoyment of the game are as strong as ever. Michael has a wealth of experience from his many years at the club and that knowledge will be invaluable to me. I am really looking forward to working with him."

How is old mate getting a testimonial even though he hasn't retired.
I'm so confused.

To me an absolutely correct decision, there were no other real contenders in terms of personality and time at the club.
We will have proper 2nd and 3rd captains in case he is rested, see no problem there.
Captaincy means leading on and off the field and he will do it properly, great example for all around.

www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/42753704Manchester United: Michael Carrick to 'become first-team coach at club'Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick has told the club he will take up their offer of a first-team coaching role at the end of the season, according to manager Jose Mourinho. Carrick, 36, has not played since experiencing an irregular heart rhythm in September, but he began training again in November following treatment. "The club would be very happy for him to do that. I would be very happy also for him to do that," Mourinho said. "I expect him to join," he added. "[He had] a few months without even training so now he is in his second week of training with the team. He is a very important player for us. "I think it is a good decision for the team and a good decision for him to finish playing football and not injured or with some problem."
