A key hesitation in replacing Carrick was the hierarchy's reported belief that changing managers might not turn around their poor form. United drew 4-4 against Aston Villa on Sunday, and United States head coach Mauricio Pochettino has emerged as a potential frontrunner to take over ahead of the upcoming match against Liverpool.
