Fernandes backs Carrick but denies players had to save him

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes expressed his support for head coach Michael Carrick following their 3-2 comeback victory against Roma. Fernandes emphasised that while the players stood behind Carrick, they did not feel the need to save his job with their performance.

The win against Roma marked a significant moment for Manchester United, who have experienced a challenging period under Carrick's management. The team showed resilience to overturn the deficit and secure the three points, reflecting their commitment on the pitch despite off-field uncertainties.

This result provides a boost to Manchester United as they navigate the season, with Carrick continuing in his role as head coach. The players’ unity and determination were clear, but Fernandes made it clear that their focus was on winning matches rather than job security for the coach.

Manchester United will look to build on this momentum in their upcoming fixtures, aiming to improve their standing and results. The backing from key players like Fernandes could be crucial as the club seeks stability and success moving forward.
