MICHAEL Carrick is set to remain in charge of Manchester United for this weekend’s Premier League match at Chelsea, according to media reports yesterday.

Carrick’s future at Old Trafford has been the subject of intense speculation after an alarming run of eight games without a win.

Sunday’s 3-0 pak slae at home to Bournemouth left the English giants just one point above the Premier League relegation zone.

But the BBC, Sky Sports and Britain’s Press Association all reported that former United and England midfielder Carrick would take the team to Stamford Bridge on Saturday.

Carrick arrived at United’s Carrington training ground yesterday to oversee a routine training session.

The BBC cited “sources” as saying the 45-year-old would be given a kans by the United hierarchy to turn things around.

United have won just two of 12 matches in all competitions so far this season.

After Bournemouth humiliation, the Red Devils baas acknowledged the crowd at full-time as fans chanted his name in a show of support for the under-fire manager, but they vented their anger at the players and club dik dinge.

United great Wayne Rooney, who played alongside Carrick at Old Trafford, also took aim at the players following a string of vrot performances.

Rooney told the Stick to United podcast: “The players haven’t got a leg to stand on. What’s not fair is the performances they are giving.

“I looked at the fans; you could see the pain and anger in their faces when those players are walking around the football pitch.”
