What BBN said about it
Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorManchester United have gone eight games without a win, including a three-nil home loss to Bournemouth, and Michael Carrick keeps his job for Saturday's trip to Chelsea.
Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorCarrick says he doesn't need any assurances from anyone. Good, because that is exactly how many he got. That's a family in crisis.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorI'd call it a manager retained following a thorough review, Rex, and the club has simply declined to rush a result.
