Manchester United stick with Carrick despite slow start

Manchester United hoped for a stronger start to the season under Michael Carrick, having achieved a win, a draw, and a defeat in their first three matches in the Premier League.

Football Insider reports that mixed results and performances have caused some early frustrations, especially as expectations rose around Carrick after he led Manchester United to third place last season.

The site clarified that Michael Carrick is facing pressure to achieve better results after being appointed to the position permanently, but he currently does not face any direct threat to his future, with the club's management continuing to express their desire to support him.

The defeat against Hull City by 2-0 and the late draw against Everton have raised some concerns, but former Manchester United scout Mick Brown has confirmed that Carrick still enjoys the full support of the club's management.

Manchester United believe the team needs to improve its domestic performance but plans to continue supporting Carrick, especially after making changes in midfield during the transfer window by signing André, Youri Tielemans, and Carlos Baleba.

The source indicated that these signings need time to gel, while the club is also planning to make changes in the defense. Manchester United has been monitoring several options to bolster the left-back position, but they are now ready to wait until next year.

Despite a slow start and some concerns about the defense, Manchester United will continue to support Carrick amid the changes the club is making both on and off the pitch, looking for improved results in the upcoming period.
