As of November 9, 2026, Manchester United remains undecided on the future of interim manager Michael Carrick, who has overseen a dismal start to the season with only one win in their first 10 matches and now finds the team in the relegation zone. The latest incident was a chaotic 4-4 draw against Aston Villa at Old Trafford, where United twice came from two goals behind. Despite this, Carrick’s side recently overturned a 2-0 halftime deficit to defeat Roma 3-2 in the Champions League and snapped an eight-match winless streak across all competitions.
Supporters and players have shown support for Carrick, but his future is uncertain as the club heads into November's international break. The board previously gave Carrick more time after a 3-0 loss to Bournemouth, hoping he could turn around the team’s fortunes, though conceding eight goals in recent matches remains a significant negative.
