    With Thomas Tuchel extending his contract with England and Carlo Ancelotti set to stay with Brazil for another four years, Manchester United's list of options to be the next head coach has shrunk. Scott Saunders ponders Michael Carrick's chance of getting the job full time, the remaining candidates who are left, damage to reputations of other coaches in the race (Roberto De Zerbi was sacked this week) and what United's best course of action is given the restructuring done in recent years.

    SESKO SAVES UNITED! West Ham 1-1 Man Utd - REACTION

    Benjamin Sesko's sublime late goal salvaged a point for Manchester United at West Ham to keep Michael Carrick's unbeaten run going, even while the winning run came to an end at four games. Scott Saunders marvels at his goal but mulls over a performance which was not as good as recent outings. Scott digs into comments from Nicky Butt in the post match and analyses the weak areas which United still have on display - even while things are moving in the right direction.
