Carrick: nine without a win
The home end at Stamford Bridge sang "you're getting sacked in the morning" at Michael Carrick. Asked whether he expected to stay in charge, he said only: "Yeah." The Athletic reports that United's hierarchy privately agreed to wait until the November international break before deciding his future. That leaves Roma on Tuesday and Aston Villa on 8 November.
"We didn't really get going second half. We could've, should've been up really first half," said Carrick.
