Manchester United will not rush a decision on Carrick's future

Manchester United's management will not rush a decision on the future of head coach Michael Carrick, after the side slipped into the relegation zone following a 4-4 draw with Aston Villa. The club believes Carrick retains the support of the squad, despite the worst start in Premier League history.

Management plans to use the international break to evaluate the season as a whole and review its options. Carrick and his coaching staff will return to Carrington on Tuesday. With most players on international duty and no first-team training planned in the coming days, the club has been given some breathing room.

The team's return of just one win in 11 matches this season and 30 goals conceded in all competitions has increased the pressure. Comebacks in the last two matches paint a positive picture, but these problems overshadow that positive mood. Management is believed to think Carrick performed above expectations last season. However, executives are clear that the current squad has fallen seriously short of expectations this season.

Another issue drawing attention is the fans' stance. Supporters are not calling for Carrick to be removed. It is recalled that Carrick, one of the club's legendary players, won 11 major trophies in a United shirt, including the Champions League and five Premier League titles.
