Count AS Roma manager Gian Piero Gasperini among the people surprised by how quickly Man Utd have plunged to new depths under Michael Carrick. From title-winning form last season under interim Michael Carrick to relegation-bound form this season under permanent Man Utd manager, it has been a puzzling downturn in fortunes.
The next test for a beleaguered Man Utd is AS Roma in the Champions League, and Carrick’s men need to break their nine-game winless streak.
Gasperini has one hope for Man Utd, but it comes with bewilderment as to how this has gone so badly for the club so quickly.
