Is Rashford leaving or will Michael Carrick give him another chance? Simon: Carrick has made all the right noises around Rashford but I would be truly stunned if he played for Manchester United again. You mention permanent replacement but Matheus Cunha can play in that position, so too Mason Mount.
BBC Senior football correspondent Sami Mokbel says Michael Carrick's impact and record as interim Manchester United boss made him the "only candidate" to be given the permanent role. United secured their 11th victory in 16 games under Carrick against Nottingham Forest on Sunday and his appointment on a two-year deal, with a one-year extension, is expected from the club imminently. "Carrick has taken that job in his stride so impressively," Mokbel told BBC Radio 5 Live's Football Daily podcast.
