United stance on Carrick's future

Carrick is set to take charge of Manchester United's Premier League fixture against Bournemouth, despite coming under mounting pressure after a wretched Champions League defeat at the hands of Como. Carrick is under intense scrutiny at Old Trafford after a return of just two wins in 11 games at the start of the season, and his side are now seven matches without a win in all competitions.

The 45-year-old was only given a two-year contract at the end of last season but his reign is already hanging by a thread after a woeful start to the season hit a nadir in Como.
