[description] => Today’s rumours are misty-eyedThe fun has only just begun at Old Trafford where Michael Carrick will become the head coach until the end of the season.

So much so that at Middlesbrough the former United and England midfielder’s determination not to compromise a philosophy constructed around a patient, possession-heavy passing game arguably cost him his job.

United welcomed back Bruno Fernandes to the starting XI in midweek, with Mason Mount and Kobbie Mainoo coming off the bench after their injuries.Harry Maguire was also back in the matchday squad but was an unused substitute for the fixture. Fletcher should have plenty of options to choose from this weekend but whether he will be in charge for next week's Manchester derby remains to be seen.Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Michael Carrick are among the former United players to hold talks with the club over the managerial position.

[description] => Supporters serenaded Solskjær, Carrick and Fletcher among others at Burnley and staged a brief anti-Ratcliffe protest“Jim can’t fix it,” the sign said. A dozen red letters nestled on a white background, a stark contrast in an away end at Burnley full of dark-coated figures in front of which they were held aloft. It was small, a couple of square metres of material, maybe. But the message to Sir Jim Ratcliffe was powerful. Remember your lane, Jim? Yeah, stick in it, pal.As Darren Fletcher, in Manchester United blazer and red tie, strolled along the touchline, flanked by tracksuited his former teammate and friend Jonny Evans, the flag flew. And then it was gone. The protest was done. Continue reading...

[description] => Solskjær remains the slight favourite for roleDarren Fletcher will oversee Sunday’s FA Cup tieMichael Carrick has edged closer to Ole Gunnar Solskjær in the bid to become Manchester United interim manager, though the Norwegian is still the slight favourite, the Guardian understands.Omar Berrada, the chief executive, and Jason Wilcox, the director of football, will not make an appointment until interviewing both men face-to-face. With the current interim, Darren Fletcher, leading United to a 2-2 draw at Burnley on Wednesday, the interviews are expected to take place on Thursday and possibly Friday, if required.

[description] => There is no guarantee the Norwegian would restore a sense of positivity like he did first time round – and failure would be a nightmareOle Gunnar Solskjær’s prime candidacy to become Manchester United’s interim manager for a second time appears the latest faulty strategic move by Jason Wilcox, United’s director of football, and the chief executive, Omar Berrada.Solskjær, whose previous tenure at United seems to place him ahead of another favoured candidate in Michael Carrick, has to be a success. If not Sir Jim Ratcliffe will surely file his hiring alongside the Ruben Amorim, Dan Ashworth and Erik ten Hag fiascos, for which Wilcox-Berrada are fully or partly responsible. Continue reading...
