The November international break has frequently proven to be a dangerous period for Premier League managers, and Michael Carrick is among those to have lost his job during the latest hiatus.
The Manchester United manager has fallen victim to the poisoned chalice, despite sparking a remarkable turnaround in the second half of last season that guided the Red Devils back into the Champions League with a third-place finish.
United have followed a familiar pattern since Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement in 2013, with bursts of early optimism consistently giving way to a return to the disappointing new norm. Many feel that a sustained climb back to the summit simply isn't possible with the Glazers and INEOS jointly in charge. The latter are already set to make their third permanent managerial appointment since taking on a minority ownership stake in late 2023.
They appeared to have struck gold with Carrick, who was handed a two-year deal back in May, but the former United midfielder has simply become the latest scapegoat at a club shrouded in dysfunction.
Here is a look at the statistics from Carrick's tenure at United.
