Carrick in the dark over his future ahead of week of reckoning at Man United

MANCHESTER (ENGLAND): (Nov 2)  With Manchester United on its worst run of results in nearly 40 years, Michael Carrick isn’t looking beyond the upcoming week amid fevered speculation about his future.

Carrick is limping on as United manager amid a nine-game winless streak in all competitions that has featured desperate performances, critical post-match outbursts and audible fan disgruntlement toward the team’s underperforming players.

A two-week international break, starting next Monday, is fast approaching and looks an ideal time for United to make decision on whether Carrick is still the man for the job.
