Manchester United appear poised to dismiss Carrick, with former scout Mick Brown telling their prospective next manager – potentially Mauricio Pochettino – that he will face "the same problems."
According to multiple reports, Manchester United are expected to part ways with Carrick this week. The Red Devils are currently 18th in the Premier League and are winless in eight league matches, equaling the club's worst-ever record.
The manager's job security was questioned after Manchester United lost 3-0 to AFC Bournemouth four games ago, but he was given a little more time in hopes of turning things around. Since then, he has experienced a loss, a win, and another draw, and it now appears that the league results will lead to his dismissal.
Several coaches have been linked with Manchester United, but United States men's national team coach Mauricio Pochettino has emerged as the frontrunner. Previous reports indicated that his recent contract extension included clauses allowing him to engage with certain clubs.
The former Tottenham Hotspur manager has long been linked with Manchester United but has never actually taken the job. If he were to take over now, he would have to find a way to lift the team from the bottom of the table and bring this struggling side back into contention.
Former Manchester United scout Brown believes that a change in manager will not bring much change, as the same problems will persist.
Brown told Football Insider: "Manchester United's current problems are far beyond just Carrick. If they decide to sack him and bring in someone else, the new manager will still face the same issues that initially led the club to its current position.
"What happened between Carrick's great success last season and the team now falling into the relegation zone? This didn't happen overnight. Look at everything at the club now – the players lack sufficient quality, especially in defense, and they haven't brought in the right personnel to strengthen the squad.
"There's also a disconnect between the fans and the club, and the fans have clearly expressed their dissatisfaction. Bringing in a new manager won't change their views.
"So, no matter who takes over, they will have to deal with the same problems that Carrick has been handling. This isn't something that can be solved immediately by replacing one person; it's not a case of bringing someone else in and everything will be fine."

Antonio Conte is only coach that can turn things around in man United situations now, Manager that knows what it takes to win a match , what it takes to buy a players, manager that knows what it takes to sack a coach.....Not Pochettino, can't change man U solutions presently.bring in Conte will savages Manchester united rapidly.

l surport you bro. The problem of ManbU is with the executive board. Changing manager without quality players can not change anything. If it is the case of sacking Carrick then it means they have been boycotting the coach as to satisfy their needs. The football director must go because he don't know the quality players to buy.(Stupid director)

Sacking Carrick is worsening the situation.Before sacking a coach is bridge of contract.why can't they take that money to buy defenders?How many coaches have they sack in the space of no time?And the same issues prevail?The problem is coming from the board.The board has an old mentality of tackling lock holes.The believe you tackling positions in the field one after the other which is completely wrong in football.You tackle the attack, midfield and defense at once.You reinforce all those places at once.

Yes. Repeated replacing coach mangers is not the solution. One of the root cause is: 1) Bruno ( very low bad mindset person) 2) The management team
