15-Second Brief
Fabrizio Romano stated that the hierarchy and players at Manchester United continue to support Michael Carrick. However, expert Emmanuel Petit believes players, including Bruno Fernandes, are indifferent towards the manager.

Insider Fabrizio Romano has shed light on the attitude of INEOS and the players towards Manchester United manager Michael Carrick.

The pressure is palpable on Carrick following a dismal start to the season. His side has amassed a mere six points from six Premier League matches and has already been eliminated from the League Cup.

Despite this shaky start, the club hierarchy continues to back their man. Romano shared this insider information during his latest YouTube update.

Manchester United still grant time and express trust in Michael Carrick. That is the message coming from the club. Inside Manchester United, there is a belief that the players are still behind Carrick.

However, former France international Emmanuel Petit holds a contrasting view, expressing his thoughts on talkSPORT.

I think the players no longer care about the manager. I've been watching this for many years. I can't recall how many coaches have sat on the Manchester United bench. The same results, the same situation. No one seems able to change this. For me, the ones who can make a difference are the players.

Yesterday, I saw body language that I didn’t like, especially from Fernandes. He is the team's leader and one of Manchester United's best players over the years. But I think all of this is affecting him. Perhaps he is just tired of the situation after so many years.
