Chelsea is preparing for a challenging week, facing Liverpool on Tuesday night and then hosting Manchester United on Saturday, with uncertainty surrounding Michael Carrick's future as Man United manager. The Blues have less than 72 hours between the two games. Chelsea fans are concerned about the situation at Man United, having lost to Bournemouth and Como. Xabi Alonso will focus on the Liverpool clash before the quick turnaround.

Michael Carrick's future as Manchester United manager remains uncertain after the team's 3-0 loss to Bournemouth, but he arrived at Carrington in a tracksuit to take training, according to Manchester Evening News reporter Samuel Luckhurst. The Telegraph's James Ducker reported that Carrick is still planning ahead for Saturday's visit to Chelsea. Man United declined to comment on Carrick's status.

Chelsea fans are worried about their team's chances against Man United, having won just four of their last 20 games against the Red Devils. Some fans expressed concerns on social media, citing Chelsea's past losses and the uncertainty surrounding Carrick's future. A win against Liverpool could boost Chelsea's confidence ahead of the Man United clash.

Focus, for now, will be on the clash against Liverpool before a quick turnaround to face Man United. There will be less than 72 hours between games, with Chelsea playing first on Saturday at lunchtime.
