After Chelsea game we will be in 18th or 19th.

Michael Carrick leaves Old Trafford TWO HOURS after the game, following a meeting with Jason Wilcox and Omar Berrada. This could be the LAST time we see him leave Old Trafford as Manchester United manager.

📍Aston Villa are a perfect example of why I keep saying that the manager must take responsibility for what is happening at 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐔𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐝. Last summer, Villa lost several important players, including Morgan Rogers, Ezri Konsa, Ollie Watkins, Tillmans, Leon Bailey, Lucas Digne, Enzo Barrenechea and Emi Martinez. That is a considerable amount of quality to lose from one squad, yet look at how they have responded. Their season started terribly. They suffered a 4-0 defeat, followed by a 1-0 loss and a goalless draw. Three games played, ZERO goals scored. At that point, you could have easily questioned their direction and wondered how they would recover from such a poor start. Fast-forward to now, and they have gone eight games without defeat in all competitions, winning seven and drawing one. That turnaround didn’t happen because they suddenly assembled a squad full of world-class players. It happened because their manager found solutions, improved the team and figured out how to make the players at his disposal perform. Think about it. Nico Jackson, a Chelsea reject, is delivering up front, while Lindelöf, whom Manchester United let go, is doing a job in their defence. Players who might not have been considered good enough by their previous clubs are contributing to a team that is getting results. That is what effective coaching looks like. Now, compare Aston Villa’s squad with Manchester United’s. Honestly, how many of their players would you take over ours? We have players with quality, experience and the ability to change games, yet we continue to struggle to produce consistent performances. Villa have suffered significant losses and still found a way forward, while we keep looking for excuses. The biggest difference is the man in the dugout. Unai Emery knows how to organise a team, implement his ideas and demand the right level of commitment from his players. His team doesn’t need to be perfect in every position before it can compete. He works with what he has, identifies what needs fixing and makes his players understand their responsibilities. That is exactly what I want to see at Manchester United. Of course, our owners and the board deserve criticism. Poor recruitment, questionable decisions and a lack of proper squad planning have contributed to the mess we find ourselves in. The board cannot escape accountability, and nobody is suggesting that our squad has no weaknesses. But we also need to stop pretending that the problems upstairs excuse everything happening on the pitch. With the players Manchester United have, we should be seeing far better football, greater intensity and more convincing results than we are getting. We shouldn’t constantly look like a team that has no clear plan, no control over games and no consistent identity. A manager’s responsibility goes beyond selecting eleven players and sending them onto the pitch. He must improve individuals, build partnerships, find tactical solutions and make the entire team greater than the sum of its parts. When a team repeatedly underperforms, the manager’s methods and decisions have to come under scrutiny. Villa’s situation proves that a terrible start and the loss of key players don’t have to define an entire season. The right manager can adapt, rebuild confidence and turn things around. So, yes, hold the Glazers and INEOS accountable. Question the recruitment. Demand better decisions from the board. But don’t ignore the manager’s responsibility simply because the people running the club have made mistakes. You can have problems behind the scenes and still expect better on the pitch. Both things can be true. Manchester United don’t need a perfect squad to start performing at a much higher level. They need a manager who can maximise the talent already available, make the right tactical adjustments and demand more from his players. #MUFC #PremierLeague #football
