Manchester United boss Carrick ‘can’t wait’ for Roma test as he puts negativity to one side

Manchester United play Roma in the Champions League tomorrow night and the pressure is firmly on boss Michael Carrick

Michael Carrick is looking forward to “two great games this week” as he fights to save his job at Manchester United.

The 2-0 defeat at Chelsea on Saturday saw United’s run without a win extend to nine games in all competitions and they now sit outside the Premier League’s relegation zone on goal difference only.

Reports suggest Carrick has Tuesday’s Champions League game against Roma and the weekend clash with Aston Villa to turn things around but the former England midfielder offered a positive assessment on Monday when asked to assess his personal situation.

He said: “That has no influence on how we prepare for the game tomorrow. We cannot wait for the game tomorrow.

“I can’t wait for the game. That is all I am focused on. What happens after, happens. Whatever direction it goes in.”
