Without the ball, the Red Devils drifted wider with Bruno acting like the no.9 at times, allowing Rashford and Sancho to have more freedom on the wings.

Carrick didn't pick that team ralf the new interim manager did.  He's already involved and Carrick is the puppet.

I hear you Rob but we're not sure about that mate honestly. Yes some people suggest that but there's no proof

How would Carrick know he wouldn't change much when he arrives? And why were ear pieces used? No proof your are right but I don't think Carrick would  have taken such a bold decision dropping CR7.

It seems as if you agree with me that benching CR7 was a correct decision based on work of the day 🤣🤣🤣

the style they played yes probably better without CR7.  At 36 that's not him is it really.

The sub was wrong Sancho was playing better and could have continued, Rashford was poor on the day and CR7 needed to come in his place... Also someone needs to tell Rashy to stay onsite, Sancho initially wanted to pass him but ultimately took the right choice to take the shot on his own...

If you look at rangnicks RB Leipzig stats.  They were 1st in the league for the following. Tackles successful pressures, recoveries and Interceptions.. I'm convinced he's already pulling the strings. I saw  similar efforts against Chelsea.

Loved the tactical plan (for this particular game) - didn’t like the subs. I actually got a little excited when Lingard was coming on because I thought he’d be replacing Fernandes who I don’t think really did anything productive that game.

I Carrick was spot on in terms of putting the structure and he was very brave in benching CR7. Look after Sancho went out we were a bit chasing everytime and I believe he was too quick to substitute him. His speed was our weapon as well

yes referee spoil  the game is not penalty.. chelsea player play a trick inside the penalty box.. why referee not look back the player .chelsea player jumbdown..referee much watch back the video VAR.. why not look ..thay mean referee want draw game ..this referee is kelong referee... they don't want mu win the game . We know MU is a big club.but other club don't like it.. like liverpool..MCity. Chelsea.. this 3 club are very dengerous play not play in clean

dirty game.. Mu record play in clean game..

sentiment at work! fair enough it was a clear penalty.. yes Thiago was smart enough to know that Bissaka would try to clear the ball and he then chip in his leg.. if was CR7 that Chelsea kicked like that would you say it is not penalty?

Sopheddy

even carrick said is not a penalty. even others still said  is not a penalty. is not only me that said is not a penalty. is bisaka not a defender.he should leave the ball for Silva to shot.

amies carlos

We don't expect carrick to say its a penalty either.. left for me the Match should be declare a win for man utd even without a player kicking the ball

referee spoil the show.by award a penalty to Chelsea.

I really give it to Carrick that his first ever Premier League he had to come our against Tuchel with Chelsea that even Pep is finding difficult to beat. And had not been for that penalty, United would have come out with 3 points.
