Fernandes criticises Carrick's tactics after Manchester United's 4-1 Champions League defeat to Como
Summary
Manchester United lost 4-1 away to Como in the Champions League on Wednesday night, extending their winless run. Captain Bruno Fernandes criticised the tactics used by head coach Michael Carrick, according to BBC and Al Jazeera reports. The Guardian reports that Carrick apologised to fans, that Fernandes criticised a 'decision from the staff', and that Carrick's future as manager is in the balance. The Guardian says director of football Jason Wilcox, chief executive Omar Berrada and co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who controls sporting policy, may discuss Carrick's future before Bournemouth's visit to Old Trafford on Sunday. ABC reports that Fernandes was branded a 'disgrace' for his comments. A later BBC report says Fernandes will remain captain and will not be disciplined for his post-match criticism of Carrick.
