Game over for Champions League United as Carrick’s reign ends
Manchester United have officially parted ways with head coach Michael Carrick.
The decision follows a disastrous run of results, with the Red Devils sitting in the relegation zone after ten Premier League games.
Carrick took the job permanently in the summer after impressing as interim manager last season and guiding United into the Champions League.

However, this season he has been unable to recapture the magic of his early days at United.
Reports suggest US national team manager Mauricio Pochettino is the favourite to succeed Carrick at Old Trafford.
Eddie Howe, Julian Nagelsmann and Antonio Conte have also been linked with the vacancy.
