Manchester United fires Carrick after dreadful start to season
MANCHESTER, England (AP) --- Michael Carrick was fired by Manchester United on
Thursday after overseeing the 20-time English champion's worst start to a
Premier League season, with U.S. men's coach Mauricio Pochettino a potential
candidate to succeed him.
Carrick's departure comes less than six months after he was given a two-year
contract and the responsibility of reviving the fortunes of the once-dominant
force of English soccer which hasn't won the league title since managerial
great Alex Ferguson's retirement in 2013.
"After a disappointing start to the season, the club has come to the extremely
difficult conclusion that a change is necessary in order to achieve our
ambitions," United said.
United added the "club intends to appoint a permanent successor as quickly as
possible."
