Manchester United cult hero slams current squad and gives Michael Carrick sack verdict

Former Manchester United striker Javier Hernandez has criticized the club's current squad, arguing players must take responsibility amid mounting pressure on head coach Michael Carrick. Speaking to Sky Sports before United's 4-4 draw against Aston Villa on Sunday, Hernandez defended Carrick and insisted that the players need to give everything on the pitch rather than complaining about tactics or management.

United currently sit in the Premier League relegation zone following a poor run of domestic form, including a 3-0 loss to Bournemouth and a 2-0 defeat to Chelsea. Despite the pressure, Hernandez voiced full confidence in his former teammate Carrick, calling him the correct person to handle the situation after guiding the team to the Champions League last season.
