Obviously a massive relief to win that game and I really do hope it provides a much-needed momentum shift for the team and for Carrick. But it's hard to get away from the fact that we were let back into the game by a relatively soft penalty: an encroachment that allowed Fernandes to take the penalty a second time, and some really poor defending and goalkeeping from Roma. The first half was as bad as anything we've put out in recent games. Whilst the second half is encouraging, it is still far, far away from the 90-minute performances we need to start seeing if we're actually going to turn this season around. #MUFC
Football, bl👀dy hell. What drama, pens, posts, Manchester United remembering the ethos of the club and their brilliant fans - defiance in adversity. Players have to maintain this mindset now. #MUFC#MUNROM
I think Carrick deserves the same attribution that every past manager has had. If the players don't want to play for him then he has to take that responsibility. The players are the players and he managed to get a decent level out of them last season. Just like Ole did at times, or Ten Hag did at times. There just aren't enough functions of this club doing a good job to have any hope of success. It's a small miracle the commercial side of the club continues to perform as well as it does.
Another morning where I'm overtired and just full of regret for even considering watching #MUFC until 2am. Particularly disappointing having spurned so many good first half chances. The whole club is in dysfunction. Becoming unbearable to watch.
If the players hadn't put in similarly shit performances every time a manager is at the end of his tether then I'd be inclined to agree but this has become such a routine occurrence, you can set your watch to it. New manager, uplift in results, gets one or two boys offside and then they tank. It's happened every year for the last 3-4 years. You understand coaching better than me so I'll take your word on Carrick and him not being the guy, but he is the guy for now, he was the guy that turned around a terrible start to last season under Amorim, so either that was the players on their own and just proves my point that they throw their maangers underr the bus or Carrick had a clue at some point and now no longer does. The players are the constant. The ownership is a constant. The manager is transient.
Of all the downing of tools we've seen by players across this last few years, this has probably been the worst. Manager will cop it again but the gigs up by now for these boys, surely. What manager in their right mind would trust any of these senior players? Disaster. #MUFC
