Since Michael Carrick took over as interim manager following Ruben Amorim's sacking earlier this month, Manuel Ugarte has played just 27 minutes across six unbeaten games, including triumphs over Manchester City, Arsenal, Tottenham, West Ham, and Everton.

The £50 million signing from PSG has seen United concede 24 goals in games with him on the pitch this season, prompting calls to sell while a few urge patience amid plans for a summer midfield shake-up.
