Manchester United manager Michael Carrick purportedly stated that he requires no reassurances from the club hierarchy, claiming that securing victories on the pitch remains the only effective way to silence growing speculation over his future.

Ahead of a Champions League fixture away to Italian side Como, the English club has managed a dismal tally of just two wins from their opening 10 matches across all competitions this season, highlighting persistent structural and athletic struggles.

The Old Trafford regime is enduring its worst start to a domestic top-flight campaign in 40 years, compounded by a League Cup exit against Brighton and a comprehensive defeat to Atletico Madrid in European competition last week.

Carrick was appointed on a permanent basis back in May following an interim spell, but he has rapidly become the latest manager to buckle under immense pressure at a club that has allegedly failed to find stability since Alex Ferguson's departure in 2013.
