It’s been nearly a decade since United last won the title, with fans having to witness rivals Manchester City and Liverpool enjoy great success in the meantime.
But pundit and Liverpool legend Carragher has revealed his fears that United are on their way back.
He told The Overlap: “It does feel different to me under Erik ten Hag.
“I always felt there was a negativity around the previous managers. With Jose Mourinho it felt like there were problems between him and the board.
“With Louis van Gaal, I’m not sure the fans were ever on board with his style of football. And with Ole [Gunnar Solskjaer], no one ever thought he would be a manager who could win United a title.
“But now it feels like they’ve got a manager who knows what he’s doing. Also, it feels like there’s a spirit at United that we haven’t seen for a while.
‘It feels like that’s coming back. I think there’s something happening at Manchester United that I didn’t see with those other managers. So it’s worry, yeah.”
Things could get even more exciting for fans as news of a takeover gathers pace.
The unpopular Glazer family put the club up for sale last year and now a group of Qatari investors are believed to be among those jostling for control of the club.

On the pitch, Wednesday night’s draw against Leeds ended United’s 13-game home-winning run.
But with the club still in contention for four competitions, with a cup final and a two-legged tussle with Barcelona to come this month, United fans will be hoping to end the season on a high.
