🚨🎙️ | Michael Carrick:
"When you watch the [Roma] game back, the first half wasn't so bad.
"There were moments when we left ourselves short, and we need to fix them. The first half against Chelsea was very good.
"We're showing signs of improvement, no doubt, and we need to take that forward."
🔴📰 | Omar Berrada advocated for Jason Wilcox’s promotion to director of football.
Berrada was said to believe Wilcox could be #mufc answer to Txiki Begiristain at Man City, as an executive who would watch training regularly and take the temperature of the squad and coaches.
Many people in football believe Wilcox’s relationship with Berrada was the KEY factor behind him getting a job at United in the first place.
Berrada would say Wilcox has the BEST eye in football to spot players. This is a view shared by some recruitment colleagues.

Nie wiem. Z jednej strony wiem, że za obecną sytuację Carrick nie ponosi pełnej odpowiedzialności. Z drugiej strony wiem, że ci, którzy ponoszą odpowiedzialność nie polecą ze stołka, a jakieś zmiany zrobić trzeba.

Carrick po meczu z Como: "Były pozytywy w tym spotkaniu. Piłka nożna to skomplikowany sport, trzeba wyciągać wnioski. Yyyy treningi były dobre. Chcemy na tym budować."
Erik Ten Hag on Cristiano Ronaldo:
"He let the team down, and he let me down, because we planned with him"
"I flew out to Portugal to speak with him about what I was aiming for before I came to United. Obviously, he’s one of the best in football history. I respected him a lot. But at that time, as a manager, I had to make a rational decision and keep the players I admire in.”
According to Ten Hag, Ronaldo pulled out of training sessions, did not get his heart rate raised to the required level when he did train, and only completed two of the three scheduled laps of the infamous run Ten Hag made his players do after they lost 4-0 at Brentford in August 2022.
"I confronted him with this,” says Ten Hag. “Many times I say, ‘Ronnie, everyone wants to work for you to bring you in the right position, but if you can’t bring yourself in the box, you can’t score’.
He was not capable to do this. It’s the wrong idea to put this to me that I expected him to do the pressing, that he’s exhausted.
But he couldn’t. He ran neither in possession nor out of possession. The reason was because he didn’t prepare himself.
"Every top team has to embrace the top player, but the top player has to work for the team."
"He was telling the players, ‘Save your legs at the training’. I understand it when you are top fit; you have sessions, you can save the legs. But first you have to train yourself to get into the right fitness levels." [@lauriewhitwell]

Wayne Rooney and Ashley Young are deeply disappointed by Lisandro Martínez's comments.
They feel he's disrespected his teammates and will fracture the dressing room going forward.
🚨🎙️ - Lisandro Martinez:
“The performance was poor, really POOR. I have to control myself.
“It mirrors our club currently. This isn’t a Champions League quality club.
“I expected more investment in the summer. I have to be honest.”
