Michael Carrick has given his Manchester United players a day off after matchesWes Brown has hinted that Michael Carrick might reverse his day off policy if Manchester United stop winning. Following his appointment as United's head coach in January, Carrick scrapped Ruben Amorim's rule by granting players an extra day off after matches. That run has helped propel United up to third in the Premier League table, above fourth-place Aston Villa on goal difference and three points ahead of Liverpool in fifth.

The Reds are aiming to stretch their unbeaten streak to 12 matches in the Premier League whilst delivering another significant boost to their top-four ambitions.
