[The Athletic] Michael Carrick's position at Manchester United is secure - for now, and results will dictate his future, people with knowledge of the situation say. Director of Football Jason Wilcox is internally said to be an advocate for "stability"

Sources say director of football Jason Wilcox, whose task it would be to make a call on the matter, is described as being an advocate for stability. After 12 wins from 17 Premier League games last season, this was the first time Carrick’s United had followed a defeat with another defeat. All three previous losses had been succeeded by a win. But the manner of the performance in Wednesday’s 3-2 defeat is what has prompted deeper concern, in particular the ineffectual, lackadaisical efforts to stem the Brighton tide. United players jogged around the pitch, left wide open spaces defensively, and were sluggish in attack.   submitted by   /u/ChiefLeef22 [link]   [comments]
