🚨🚨🎙️| Roy Keane on who will be Premier League Player of the Season for 2026-27:
“Bruno Fernandes. He’s a brilliant player. I think if United are decent at the back, I think he can produce some magic.”

🗣️ More from Carrick on Mason Mount's injury: He's picked up a little bit of a knock. It's maybe been a week or so, 10 days, so it's nothing major. Of course he's missed some football over recent years and he wants to be fit, be in that full rhythm and stay fit. We've got to have a squad that's strong enough to have a really good starting team with the depth to carry us through the season. Mason will be back very, very soon, if not immediately, so it's all good. #mufc
🗣️ Carrick on the challenges Hull pose: "I think certainly for teams coming up into the league there tends to be quite a few changes within the playing group. So it's always a challenge when you're playing against them. There's that freshness and buzz around the football club of coming into the Premier League and what that brings. We'll be prepared, mentally and physically. We know what the game's going to bring and how good we need to be to get the right result." #mufc
🗣️ Michael Carrick on Rashford:
“Marcus has come back fantastically well. He’s enjoying his football, he looks fit, sharp and strong and ready to play. I’ve been delighted with him since he came back.
He can play through the middle and has done. I wouldn’t say it’s his number one position, but he can do that, and we’ve got forwards that can give us flexibility right across that front line.
We’ve used all of them in slightly different roles so I think for us to have that option is really good through the season.”
Carrick: "We’re managing Mason [Mount] a little bit, but he is very close. He’s touch and go for the weekend really and going into next week. Mason will be back very, very soon, if not immediately, so it's all good."
Michael Carrick when asked about what the club might do before the deadline:
“We’re just looking to strengthen the squad. We’re certainly working towards that, we’re trying to make the most of the opportunities to finish the window stronger than we went into it and we’re in a good way to doing that so far.”
🗣️ Carrick on teams news: "De Ligt won't be involved, but he's in good shape and moving in a good direction. Sesko is back training, looking forward to having him back around the group and getting him some minutes as well. And then we're managing Mason Mount a little bit, but he's very close, so it's touch-and-go for the weekend really." #mufc

Michael Carrick says that Benjamin Sesko and Karl Darlow could make the squad against Hull, but it might come too soon for Mason Mount. Matthijs de Ligt has been ruled out of the match as he continues to recover from back surgery [@StevenRailston]
