Carrick's Future, Blame on Wilcox & Project 150 | Man Utd State of Play w/ Adam Joseph

Manchester United's disappointing 1-1 draw with Tottenham has intensified the scrutiny on Michael Carrick — but are the club's problems much bigger than the manager?

Adam Joseph returns for a State of Play discussion examining United's worrying start to the season, Carrick's position and whether the team's lack of intensity is primarily a conditioning problem or a reflection of the coaching.

Attention also turns to Jason Wilcox and the wider football leadership structure. Does United's recruitment strategy make sense? Would the club benefit from a more experienced director of football, and have the decisions made behind the scenes contributed to the difficulties on the pitch?

There's also discussion of INEOS' Project 150 ambitions, whether United's long-term targets remain realistic, and how much faith remains in Carrick's ability to turn things around.

Finally, a brief look ahead to the Champions League clash with Atlético Madrid and United's chances of getting a much-needed positive result.
