Manchester United chiefs are said to be in agreement on three points, which could lead them to decide against sacking Michael Carrick. The United boss is under huge pressure, with the club sitting in the Premier League relegation zone.

Widespread reports on Monday night claimed that the former midfielder is on the verge of being sacked. It's reported that Omar Berrarda and Jason Wilcox are set to recommend the decision to co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe in a meeting on Tuesday.

But latest reports from Sky Sports suggest a decision is not as close as it seems. They outline three reasons why the board are taking their time: the supporters' reaction, the squad's support and the difference changing the manager will make.
