Maybe people aren't being patient with Carrick is because he's been here years, part of the Maureen and Ole reigns and so he should know what the players can do. Just excuses that he's only had a few days.
Ralf Rangnick | ex-interim manager | does anyone rate him?

Ok so what's the solution if you're now saying training should have nothing to do with it?
you are relentless. I feel sorry for you. He's literally been in the main job a few days, its not an excuse its a fact.The people not being patient with a caretaker manager are quite frankly idiots not worthy of a seconds attention. I'm a moron for giving in to the crying really.
ah fair. Yeah no chance things turn around over night - but to be fair we've seen a semi new manager bounce already.
There are a lot of messages on here so have not had a chance to go through a lot, apologies if I am repeating a question, does anyone know when the work permit issue could be resolved? How confident are we that he will be in charge against Arsenal?
Club have announced Carrick is in charge for Arsenal.
I'd be all for this, he's fantastic. Get rid of Dalot, make space for this kid.
Re: the wing back debate, my view of the current "meta" in football is a 4 man defensive block + 6 attackers when a team attacks.
e.g., For Chelsea, the 4 man defensive block when they're attacking are the 3 CBs + mostly Jorginho and sometimes Kante. In our game yesterday, the block was Lindelof, Bailly, McTominay (who slotted in at RB in the space vacated by AwB), Matic.
I don't think it's a problem to have two very attacking fullbacks if we play something like Matic + McTominay in the middle.

How do you know they didn't realise there would be delays?
I know it's the fashionable thing to crap on the club, but come on, not unless you know for a fact they didn't realise this then ease off.
That's better.
Stop with the crap about due diligence, they only made the decision after the Watford game, for reasons stated in posts above.
Says the guy who's been having a meltdown for the past 48hrs over the performance of the team under a short term caretaker
How could they sort this out during the international break when they hadn't decided to sack Ole then?
FFS, use a bit of common sense.
Pot and kettle springs to mind.
I'mn not saying that, what I'm saying is that it's a basic all footballers in the league should be able to manage.
Ours don't seem to be able to control the ball and pass it five yards, let alone any further. That's not training, that's carelessness or a don't care attitude, imo.
Of course I have because we played absolutely cowardly tactics and some posters seem to think, just because we got rid of Ole, things have magically improved. For some reason, they also seem to make excuses for a man who's been training the players for years and now claim he's only had a few days with them. It's baffling.Says the guy who's been having a meltdown for the past 48hrs over the performance of the team under a short term caretaker
Just because I'm not happy with Carrick's cowardly tactics and thought we played abjectly?
Seems more like common sense than blindly making excuses for him.
Yeah, everyone's mad except you.
There's one thing I don't understand
Why Rangnick's job is to find a permanent manager instead of trying to become it himself ? If I understood correctly

That could potentially happen. However, Rangnick prefers to work throughout the entire club, not just at a managerial level.
Yes, they needed to see us battered by Watford to sack the manager who got thrashed by Liverpool 5-0 at home and 4 at Leicester away,
Apparently they did.
No use crying about it now, it's happened. Another match or two with our saviour Carrick shouldn't do any harm before we get Ralf in.

Because he is not actually a manager anymore. He is a director of football operations who specialises in building clubs. He has a track record of bringing in good young managers with potential and is known for his ability to design a transfer and hiring policy that fits the squad's desired profile.
He's managed twice in the last 10 years, both times as an interim caretaker. Both time with a view to assess the squad and bring in a manager. This is what he does best.
So you want to ignore the main point just to validate your point ? The fact is the board had more than enough time to sack Ole and appoint a new interim during an international break but because of their cluelessness we're where we're now. Their incompetence is the main reason of us having to throw a caretaker into such schedule instead of having Rangnick managing us probably ever since Watford game.
Footage just in. Arrival of Rangnick during the Arsenal game...
If he’s in charge of picking next manager surely that would be a biased decision
The board hadn’t sacked ole at that stage, or indeed made up their mind so this 2 week break is irrelevant
Fantastic signing if we get him. It's good to know this is the type of player RR wants.
The end for Laird?
Evidence that Ragnick had input on the Chelsea game apparently...

Think Dalot is the one in trouble more than Laird. That is on the assumption that the article writer hasn't just pulled this out of their arse which is more than likely.
Surely he can take part in training. Or is that also prohibited?
Sure... and what other posters said seems to back this up.
Well, I just hope the fans will be the winners in the end, whether he stays or goes. What this club needs is a clear transfer policy for years to come. A policy of the club, not from the managers.
The managers need to work with whatever the club tells them to.
Oh FFS. Just fecking stamp his papers and let him start.
Haha you are unbelievable.
Most people understand that Carrick is not much of use as a manager right now. Which is why we are not expecting much from our performances and are waiting for Ralf. We are just getting by in the meanwhile.
You on the other hand realize Carrick is not good but are insistent on blasting him.
Not sure what you are trying to achieve. Also not sure why you are not recognizing the fact that nothing can be done about it.
Why? It takes 2 fecking seconds to google the fella and know what he’s all about. It’s not like he’s some unknown quantity so why’s there so much red tape holding up the process?
Turns out Boris also likes biscuits and good natured humor.
Ogden winding you all up.
Damn. Harsh
