'That's not going to happen' - Carrick vows not to quit

Carrick said United must tighten up after conceding four goals and remain in the relegation zone with one win in 10 league matches.

  • On Sunday, Manchester United head coach Michael Carrick watched his side draw 4-4 against Aston Villa, leaving the Red Devils 18th in the Premier League and in the relegation zone heading into this month's international break.
  • Carrick faces intense scrutiny after becoming the first United manager in 40 years to guide the club into the top-flight relegation zone, with defensive errors by Alysson and Nicolas Jackson contributing to a 2-0 deficit inside four minutes.
  • When asked by Sky Sports reporter Patrick Davison if he would resign, Carrick dismissed the notion, stating, "That's not going to happen." The manager insisted he remains clear on the direction the club needs to go.
  • Manchester United legend Roy Keane compared Carrick to a "politician" who "talks a lot but doesn't say much," while Gary Neville argued ownership issues and poor recruitment are the club's fundamental problems.
  • United will spend the international break evaluating Carrick's future before returning to face Liverpool at Anfield on November 22, with the club holding only one win from 10 matches this season.
