Michael Carrick asked if #mufc had become unmanageable: "No."

Michael Carrick on if he trusts the #mufc players against Bournemouth tomorrow: "I definitely trust them, yeah, 100% I trust them. It wasn’t a very good night [against Como] at all for us, for so many reasons, we all know that. We’ll be a different team on Sunday. We have to be a different team on Sunday."

Michael Carrick on #mufc’s lack of running: "I think you've got to be careful with just saying ‘not running’. We’ve won a lot of games over a period of time and this pressing thing, that suddenly everyone thinks about pressing. Pressing is one small part of football. There's all sorts of different ways of what people class as a press. What actually is it? What you're doing it for? Is it to your strength? Is it covering up other spaces? It's just thrown about as a bit of a word at the minute of pressing. You don't necessarily need to press to win games of football. Sometimes you do, sometimes you don't. It's just a thing that gets thrown about." [@samuelluckhurst]

Michael Carrick asked if he agrees that #mufc’s failure to adequately strengthen the squad over the summer has been a factor in poor results: "I think there's a lot of elements, different elements, some smaller than others of why that and why we've ended up not winning as many games. So, I'm pretty clear about that." Also was asked if anyone from the hierarchy had conceded he could have received more support: "It's not about receiving more support, it's about doing what's right on the football pitch to get results and we haven't done enough of that lately."

Should Bruno Fernandes be dropped against Bournemouth?

Back at Old Trafford tomorrow ❤️

Jason Wilcox is sympathetic to Michael Carrick’s plight, recognising that a restricted summer window has only been compounded by a spate of injuries One insider stressed Wilcox was limited by budgets set by Sir Jim Ratcliffe and the Glazer family’s debt. But senior figures were particularly concerned with the manner of #mufc's 4-1 defeat in Como midweek [@samuelluckhurst, @katwalshy1]

Michael Carrick’s message to the players: "We want us to look like ourselves. We want to be the best version of us."

Jason Wilcox's top target would be Fabian Hurzeler, but Hurzeler is reportedly unconvinced about the merits of making the move to #mufc, while Brighton would want a huge compensation fee to release their manager [@TyMarshall_MEN]

Senne Lammens on differences from last season to this for #mufc: “Last season I felt like playing-wise maybe we played better this season, but last season everything just clicked and went the right way for us. We struggled as a team together when they pressed us, but we didn't concede that many goals. We did really well, but you also know, I think everybody knew that we had to improve as well from that & that teams were going to change the way they played against us, so that's why we had to evolve this season.   I think we need a little bit more like last season, the way we fought together, even when it wasn't going the best, and just trying to fight as a team and defend as a team, I think that's probably something we need to try to get back to.” [@DanyalHKhan]
