Manchester United finally have a clean slate, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer out of the door. But the future seems more convoluted than at any time in the eight years since Sir Alex Ferguson retired.

So what state are they in? What are their options? And what will they do next?
Did Carrick make a mark on Day one?
Yes. There was an immediate sign that he understood which senior players have major concerns about United’s crisis.
