Michael Carrick is not under threat of dismissal despite Manchester United’s difficult start to the season.
United suffered another setback on Wednesday evening, surrendering a two-goal lead before losing 3-2 to Brighton at Old Trafford. The defeat ended their English League Cup campaign.
The club are also struggling in the Premier League, where they sit 13th after four matches.
However, Manchester United believe the responsibility for improving results lies with the players. The club’s view is that the squad must make progress both individually and collectively.
Carrick’s position as head coach remains secure for now, despite the team’s early difficulties in both competitions.
Manchester United’s next match is away to Fulham in London on 20 September.
