A look at why Manchester Uniteds problems go beyond Carrick, with injuries, squad rebuild issues and limited depth all playing a part, plus concerns about the clubs decision-making above the manager…

Writing for Football News and Views, Shappy argues that Manchester United's struggles extend far beyond manager Michael Carrick. The author contends that an ongoing defensive injury crisis, an unsettled new midfield, and squad rebuild issues have severely hindered the team's momentum and exposed Carrick's inexperience as a young manager.
The writer also criticizes the club's hierarchy, arguing that Director of Football Jason Wilcox poses a significant internal issue. Shappy suggests that Manchester United must restructure leadership before appointing a permanent manager, mentioning Unai Emery as an ideal candidate or Eddie Howe as a potential short-term option.
