BBC Sport's Manchester United reporter Simon Stone, Jay Motty from Stretford Paddock and Tom Allnutt from The Times join Rick Edwards and Lloyd Griffith for reaction to Michael Carrick's sacking.

Plus, a look at why Pochettino is a throwback manager – and how his way of doing things could suggest that major changes to the Old Trafford hierarchy are on the horizon.
