Манчестер Юнайтедын довтлогч бэртлийн улмаас оныг дуустал тоглох боломжгүй болсон нь дасгалжуулагч Майкл Каррикийн хувьд хүнд цохилт болж байна.
Словени довтлогч Бенжамин Шешко есдүгээр сарын 16-нд Карабао цомын тэмцээний хүрээнд Брайтонтой хийсэн тоглолтоос хойш талбайд гараагүй юм. Шилбэний бэртэл нь бүрэн эдгэрээгүй байгаа тул эмнэлгийн багийн зөвлөмжийн дагуу түүнд урт хугацааны амралт шаардлагатай байгааг Майкл Каррик баталлаа. Энэ улиралд 2 гоол оруулсан Шешко мэс засалд орох шаардлагагүй ч нөхөн сэргээх эмчилгээ нь ирэх оны нэгдүгээр сар хүртэл үргэлжлэхээр байна.
Манчестер Юнайтедын хувьд Кобби Майну, Патрик Доргу, Люк Шоу нарын бэртэлтэй тоглогчдын жагсаалтад Шешко нэмэгдлээ. Гэсэн хэдий ч Кобби Майну багийн бэлтгэлд хэсэгчлэн эргэн ирсэн нь багийн хувьд нааштай мэдээ болов.
Өнгөрсөн долоо хоногт Борнмуттай хийсэн тоглолтод 3-0-ийн харьцаатай хожигдсоны дараа Майкл Каррикийн ажлын байр эрсдэлд орсон билээ. Багийн удирдлага даваа гарагт уулзалт хийж ирээдүйн талаар хэлэлцсэн ч Каррик албан тушаалдаа үлдэж, бямба гарагт Челсигийн талбайд зочлох тоглолтод багийг удирдах болно.

Manchester United striker Benjamin Sesko is sidelined until at least the new year due to an ongoing shin injury in another heavy blow for under-pressure manager Michael Carrick.
Sesko has not played for United since their Carabao Cup third-round exit at home to Brighton on 16 September.
The 23-year-old Slovenian missed the entirety of pre-season due to a similar injury and Carrick said before the first international break that he would undergo tests to determine the extent of the problem.
Sesko has avoided surgery but the club’s medical team, working alongside specialists, has determined that an extended period of rest is required for Sesko to fully recover from the shin injury.
Carrick confirmed that this would rule him out until January in his press conference ahead of a potentially decisive trip to Chelsea for his future.
“Unfortunately it looks like Ben is going to be out for a period of time,” he said. “We’re still not clear of exactly how long but it’s going to be for a longer period of time.
“We’ve got to go through a healing process for the injury to see how it would react, in what direction to go with that. Even now we’re still working through it but [it’s] unfortunate obviously first and foremost for Ben, for the period he’s had and trying to get through it.
“Going through this again and for us to not have him available is obviously a blow. We’ll try and get him back as quickly as we can.”
Sesko has scored two goals this season, coming off the bench to bag in the 2-2 draw at Everton before scoring in the 4-0 win over Sabah in the Champions League four days later.
He becomes the latest injury concern for United, joining the likes of Kobbie Mainoo, Patrick Dorgu and Luke Shaw in the treatment room, all of whom are expected to return in November.
Carrick was able to provide somewhat of a positive on Mainoo’s recovery, revealing he has returned to partial team training on Wednesday.
“Kobbie did a little bit of training yesterday so he’s back and around the group which is obviously a positive,” he added.
Sesko’s absence is nevertheless another attacking setback for Carrick whose United side were toothless up front in the 3-0 defeat to Bournemouth at Old Trafford last weekend.
He was at serious risk of being sacked after that defeat as members of the United hierarchy met at Carrington on Monday to discuss his future, but Carrick survived initial crisis talks and will take charge for the visit to Stamford Bridge on Saturday.
