Story summary

Michael Carrick, the interim manager of Manchester United, faces growing pressure after his team suffered a 2-0 defeat against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on October 31. The loss came with Lisandro Martinez being sent off in the match, leaving United short-handed for part of the game. Despite initial reports suggesting that Carrick might be given more time, recent articles indicate that Manchester United may have already made the decision to sack him following this defeat. The team had been struggling with poor results before the Chelsea match and was on a winless streak in eight games across all competitions. Bruno Fernandes, who had been dropped from the previous game, returned to the starting lineup as captain but could not prevent the loss. Sir Jim Ratcliffe, Manchester United’s minority shareholder, attended the match, possibly adding pressure for change within the club.

🔮 The Mexican was fighting for the first time in over a year since his stunning defeat by Terence Crawford in Las Vegas, Nevada, as ‘Bud’ jumped up the weight divisions to cause an almighty upset in the super-middleweight division.
🔮 Questions had been asked about Sage’s long-term future at Palace, and his position will be in further doubt after a sixth league defeat in nine, and just two victories coming from his the opening Premier League matches of his tenure.
🔮 Buoyed by only a second triumph at Chelsea in 36 years last weekend, Spurs’ task was made more routine by a 13th-minute red card for Palace forward Jean-Philippe Mateta for a studs-up tackle on Micky van de Ven. VAR intervened to assist referee Michael Oliver and it was largely one-way traffic after with Archie Gray able to open the scoring with a header after 25 minutes. Roberto De Zerbi’s team started the second half impressively and eventually doubled their lead with 17 minutes left through former Brighton centre-back Jan Paul van Hecke. It allowed De Zerbi to hand a league debut to Spurs’ teenager Luca Williams-Barnett on an enjoyable night for the north London club, but this latest defeat will increase the scrutiny on under-fire Palace boss Pierre Sage. More to follow.
🔮 Now, however, it appears that he will be retained in-post for the club’s next two matches, up to the November international break.
🔮 The stretch of poor results has plunged Carrick’s future as United head coach into serious question, with the former midfielder expected to be relieved of his duties following heavy 4-1 and 3-0 losses to both Como and Bournemouth respectively last week.
🔮 While that may work in the short-term as a caretaker or when managing sides like Cardiff or Middlesbrough, that approach will quickly get found out when trying to implement it at the very highest level. What he has not shown at all in his tenure is any kind of tactical flexibility.

🔮 BBC Sport reports that the Magpies would still be entitled to compensation should the Englishman take a new job within a certain amount of a time, as a result of a clause in his contract at St James’ Park.
🔮 Instead, ‘The Nuke’ will be taking on highly-rated semi-professionals as well as some of the sport’s up and coming talents.
