Michael Carrick believes that the Manchester United squad will adapt to the high-pressing style of German coach Ralf Rangnick.
Sources have told Rob that United are going to appoint a new boss before the end of the season.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's United were accused of not doing well before the Norwegian was sacked, because of their reputation for fierce pressing.
The squad will be able to adapt to any coach who comes in, despite the fact that the interim manager will be Rangnick, according to the man who will be in charge for Sunday's game.
When asked if he had been kept in the loop about the appointment of Rangnick, Carrick said that speculation and reports is what it is.
I'm preparing the team for the game as I sit here. I haven't given you any more information on that front.
"There's a lot of different styles in football, so I'm not sure if he can implement his pressing style with United's crop of players."
Whoever comes in, the group of players can adapt. I'm sure the people in the squad will look forward to what's ahead.
Sources told James Olley that the situation with Mason Mount is not serious despite reports in Spain that Real Madrid were interested in him.
Sources claim that Mount enjoys a good relationship with head coach Thomas Tuchel and is focused on further success with the Blues.

It is anticipated that conversations will begin later in the season as the first priority is talks with several players whose deals are up next summer, chiefly Antonio Rudiger, Cesar Azpilicueta and Thiago Silva.

The January transfer window for Real Madrid is going to be busy, according to a report by the newspaper. They will be able to talk to the likes of Kylian Mbappe, Antonio Rudiger, and Paul Pogba about free transfers in the summer of 2022, though they are still undecided about whether to move for the latter two.
Vinicius Junior and Eder Militao will be renewed, but Luka Jovic, Jesus Vallejo, and Mariano Diaz could all leave. When the season is over, Isco, Marcelo and Bale will all leave for nothing.
According to El Nacional, Barcelona's goalkeepers could be moved to the other team in the future, with the aging of Manuel Neuer. The financial position of the Blaugrana makes them willing to discuss a deal with the Bavarians. The stopper is not a priority to sell.
According to Calciomercato, AS Roma man Nicolo Zaniolo is being pursued by both Spurs and Biancos. The Italian will be extended by another year, which will take him through to the year 2025.
According to Diario Sport, Ousmane Dembele has no interest in joining the club. Barcelona are receptive to the financial offer being made, but Dembele wants a greater sporting project and is not impressed by their squad - something that won't be changed by any wage or package on offer.
Calciomercato has reported that Internazionale are interested in the trio of Davide Frattesi, Giacomo Raspadori and Gianluca Scamacca. The deals for the first two are not easy to understand, but Scamacca could be signed as an alternative to Edin Dzeko due to their similar profiles. A good relationship between the two clubs will help.
Nani has announced that he will be leaving the club. The club didn't take up the option to extend the stay of the Portuguese player, who has spent three years in the area.
