Manchester United: Michael Carrick and Bruno Fernandes made things clear

Manchester United manager Michael Carrick and captain Bruno Fernandes held clear discussions at the training ground to ease recent tensions. According to Sky Sports, the pair smoothed things over and agreed to prioritize the squad ahead of Saturday's match against Chelsea. Carrick remains in his role despite heavy consecutive defeats.

Tensions flared after Fernandes criticized Carrick's tactical decisions following a 4-1 Champions League defeat to Como. Consequently, Fernandes was benched for the subsequent 3-0 Premier League loss to Bournemouth, leaving Manchester United in 16th place with just one league victory.
