Picture: Why Michael Carrick has arrived late to Carrington amid Man United crisis talks
Story updated
The story in brief
6-second readMan United hold crisis talks at Carrington as Michael Carrick's future hangs in the balance, with Eddie Howe the favourite to take over.
From the source
Manchester United are on the verge of another potential managerial sacking if all the latest reports are to be believed. Results under Michael Carrick this season have been abysmal, with the Red Devils winning only two games out of 12 in all competitions.
The team have hardly displayed any real grit or determination on the pitch, regularly being outrun and outfought by the opposition, while the head coach’s tactics have been questionable to say the least.
The former United midfielder is not the only one at fault here, with INEOS’ poor summer recruitment also to blame. However, Sir Jim Ratcliffe seems to trust director of football Jason Wilcox despite his horrendous track record.
