Michael Carrick receives sack verdict immediately after Man Utd shambles vs Como
Michael Carrick has been told his tenure as Manchester United manager will be coming to an end soon following a disastrous start to the season for the Red Devils boss. Labelled the latest saviour of the club following an impressive interim stint, Carrick was handed the job on a permanent basis in the summer, but his fortunes have gone downhill since then. The humiliating defeat away to Como in the Champions League was United's seventh match without a win, with the pressure continuing to pile on the Englishman's shoulders. There have already been calls for him to be sacked, and if the sorry sight of Carrick apologising to the travelling United fans didn't send alarm bells ringing, it's hard to imagine what will at this stage.
