Manchester United and Mauricio Pochettino: Has the moment finally arrived?

What's behind this

Manchester United are in talks with Mauricio Pochettino to replace Michael Carrick as manager, according to reports. The club’s current position is 18th in the Premier League, inside the relegation zone, having won only one of their first ten league matches and none since August. This marks the lowest standing at this stage of a top‑flight season since 1986‑87 and the worst start in 40 years. Carrick’s role at Old Trafford has been under intense speculation and scrutiny as the team endures a series of winless games.
