Carrick stays on after Chelsea loss leaves United winless in 9
What's next: Manchester United host Roma on Tuesday after a 2-0 loss and a red card for Lisandro Martínez deepened the slide.
Michael Carrick remained in charge of Manchester United after a 2-0 defeat at Chelsea stretched the club’s winless run to nine matches, its worst such spell since 1988. Carrick said he expected to lead United against Roma in the Champions League on Tuesday, while Sky Sports, citing The Athletic, reported he would get at least two more games. Chelsea pulled away in the second half after Morgan Rogers opened the scoring. United’s problems worsened when Lisandro Martínez was sent off for a foul on Wesley Fofana, and Cole Palmer converted the penalty to make it 2-0. The result left United hovering just above the relegation zone before other weekend matches.
