Mauricio Pochettino’s ‘kill’ team talk – when USA were already 3-0 up – convinces Man United fans he’s right to replace Michael Carrick

Footage of a fiery team talk by Mauricio Pochettino while managing the USA has convinced some Manchester United supporters that he is the right candidate to replace Michael Carrick. With United in 18th place and Carrick nearing the sack, club executives Omar Berrada and Jason Wilcox are scheduled to meet minority owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe in Monaco to determine the manager's future.

In the viral documentary clip from 2024, Pochettino urged his US squad to keep an aggressive mentality despite being 3-0 ahead against Jamaica. Pochettino has a reported £7 million release clause in his national team contract, though Manchester United sources maintain no final decision regarding Carrick has yet been made.
