Fernandes dropped by Manchester United, Liverpool v Brighton and more: clockwatch - live
Manchester United manager Michael Carrick discusses the team's recent poor performance and his emotional state following a difficult loss. He addresses rumors regarding his future and defends his tactical decisions, including the benching of Bruno Fernandes.
Why it matters
The article highlights the intense pressure and public scrutiny surrounding high-profile football management in the Premier League.
Carrick doesn’t think Newcastle should’ve been penalised for the free-kick which led to the first goal and Yoro, who he says will be a top player, slipped for the second. He felt the crowd were waiting for them to pull one back, but then they conceded the third and he had “mixed emotions” at the end of the game.
It was a tough day for the players and they went into the game having been “rocked a bit”. The players are really hurting and disappointed, but you have to accept that’s the situation United are in.
