Carrick stays on as Manchester United manager for crucial Chelsea match
Carrick will be in charge of football's Man United when they visit Chelsea on October 31, reports in British media say.
Michael Carrick remains in charge of Manchester United and has led the football team’s training at their Carrington training ground, giving the under-pressure manager and his players another opportunity to revive a season that has drifted alarmingly off course.
Carrick’s future had appeared in serious doubt after Sunday’s 3-0 home defeat by Bournemouth extended United’s winless run to eight matches in all competitions and left them hovering one point above the Premier League relegation zone in 16th place.
Senior club officials held talks on Monday amid mounting speculation over Carrick’s position, with potential replacements already being linked to the job by British media reports.
Amid Sunday’s frustration at Old Trafford, supporters levelled their anger at the players rather than the manager.
