Manchester United's winless run extended to nine matches following a defeat to Chelsea, but interim manager Michael Carrick insists he expects to remain in charge.

The loss on October 31, 2026, left the team without a victory in nearly two months, increasing pressure on Carrick's position. However, the former United midfielder said after the match that he anticipates staying on as the club navigates a difficult period.

Carrick, who took over on a temporary basis, has overseen a string of poor results but retains the backing of the hierarchy for now. The club's next fixture will be a crucial test of whether the squad can arrest the slide.
