@thirdrailsports: Michael Carrick was on the brink after a 3-0 home loss to Bournemouth — now he gets one more game. Sky Sports and ESPN confirmed he took training Tuesday and will lead United against Chelsea on Saturday. The club hasn't sacked him. Yet. Eddie Howe and Julian Nagelsmann are already being discussed as replacements. That tells you everything. Saturday is not a football match. It is a job interview. Carrick gets Chelsea on Saturday with his job on the line. Is one result enough to save him, or has United already made up their mind? #ManchesterUnited #Carrick #ThirdRailSports Photo: SRPC Digital
