Saw his name linked again so going to reiterate, a resounding NO to De Zerbi.
Being an apologist for an abuser should automatically disqualify him from the role.

Michael Carrick is a man who ‘hates’ the word philosophy, but has firm football convictions; he can be standoffish but never goes after players in public; and he is a disciple of Sir Alex Ferguson.
This is what to expect from Manchester United’s new head coach.

Injury replacements *will* be manipulated to become de-facto subs, because there will always be someone sufficiently unscrupulous, so you might as well cut out the middleman and just allow subs!

It would be advantageous for Big 3 with technically bigger squads & selection of players, but rather have a substitue , irrespective of injury than this where it will always be manipulated.
Nothing necessarily imminent, but ECB are keeping an eye on ongoing injury replacement trials in Australia, India and South Africa, which is relevant for the County Championship. Sheffield Shield have extended their pilot until the end of the season.

Get Solskjaer as Director of football, shake hands with Wilcox, and tell Berrada to just concentrate on commercial stuff, leave football to Ole & Vivell.
Darren Fletcher, in caretaker charge for two games following Ruben Amorim’s sacking, is in line to potentially assist Michael Carrick as a coach.
It is thought another coach coming in to support Carrick would also be on the cards.

Very difficult for Fletch to step in at last moment, but this assistant thing, rather he completed the year he started with U18s, that is important too.
