The Promised Land | A Manchester United Podcast

Michael Carrick's time as Manchester United head coach appears to be coming to an end, with Mauricio Pochettino emerging as the favourite to replace him. Adam Joseph returns for the latest State of Play to discuss Carrick's expected departure, what went wrong after such a promising start and whether United have waited too long to make a change. Attention then turns to Pochettino. Would the former Tottenham, Chelsea and PSG manager be the right appointment for United? How does he compare with Eddie Howe, and which candidate is best equipped to get the current squad performing again? There's also a wider discussion about Jason Wilcox, Omar Berrada and INEOS, whose decision to retain Carrick has left United facing another managerial crisis and a battle at the wrong end of the Premier League table.

Manchester United ARE IN THE RELEGATION ZONE. A ridiculous 4-4 draw with Aston Villa on Sunday ensured that they would spend the international break in the bottom three, with ONE win from their first TEN games in the Premier League season - with no league win since August 30th. Scott Saunders breaks down his thoughts on the game, and why, amid all the protests at the club's ownership, the coaching team and their decisions are the fundamental issue that has to be addressed even while there are problems above them.

Manchester United finally have something to celebrate after their dramatic 3-2 comeback victory over Roma, but is this a genuine turning point for Michael Carrick or simply a false dawn? Adam Joseph returns for the latest State of Play to discuss United's performance, Carrick's big win and whether the players have finally shown the fight and intensity that's been missing for much of the season. The big question is what the result means for Carrick's future. Has he earned more time, or are United delaying an inevitable decision? There's also a major development in the managerial picture, with Unai Emery committing his future to Aston Villa. Does that effectively rule him out of the running at Old Trafford?
