Jose Mourinho and Alex Ferguson are connected through their desire to win, according to Manchester United captain Michael Carrick.
The 35-year old won 5 Premier League titles with the Scotsman, but he believes his new manager has the potential to win big things at United.
"They're quite different personalities, but of course they've both got that drive and desire to win, which is all that matters," said the Englishman.
"Everywhere Jose's been, he's won. He's a winner. He's done it in different ways, his sides have played different styles, but he's always found a way to win.
"Even last year, we weren't at our best for parts of the season, but found a way to win trophies.
"That's the biggest thing I can say about him – he's a winner and his desire and drive to win rubs off on everyone."
