Show Notes
After Manchester United’s 3-0 defeat to Bournemouth it looked as though time was up for Michael Carrick.
But with news he’ll stay in charge for Saturday’s game against Chelsea, is this really a show of faith or just a stay of execution?
Emma Paton is joined by Cerys Jones and Thom Harris to get into who would be the best candidate to replace Carrick, should United move him on.
The panel are joined by Jacob Whitehead, who makes a case for Eddie Howe and Jacob Tanswell, to talk whether Unai Emery could be prised away from Aston Villa.
Plus, we hear from Seb Stafford Bloor on Julian Nagelsmann and Liam Twomey on Antonio Conte.
